2019 Nissan NV200: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The main change for the 2019 Nissan NV200 is the addition of a Base trim for the purpose-built taxi model. Otherwise, the S and SV cargo vans carry over without major mechanical, styling, safety, or technology updates.
About the 2019 Nissan NV200
1st-generation U.S. NV200, late-cycle year. The cargo van belongs to the U.S. run sold from 2013-2021, while the taxi version reaches its final U.S. model year in 2019.
In 2019 Nissan positioned the NV200 as a city-sized work van first and foremost. Its appeal is simple: easy maneuvering in tight streets, a low load floor, dual sliding side doors, flexible cargo space, and lower running costs than a larger full-size van. The taxi version applies that same compact footprint to urban passenger service. Buyers chose the NV200 for access and efficiency, not for towing, speed, or heavy-duty hauling.
The 2019 NV200 remains a compact, city-friendly work van with dual sliding doors, split rear cargo doors, and a fold-down passenger seat that doubles as a work surface. The S covers the basics with a backup camera and 5-inch audio display, while the SV adds cruise control, heated power mirrors, keyless entry, and extra cargo tie-downs. The Base taxi is set up for four passengers with navigation, an intercom, entry steps, grab handles, and a passenger-exit warning light.
