Nissan has opened the order books for the new Nissan Interstar van with the entry-level model priced from £33,090.
Diesel versions of the all-new Interstar will be available in two trim levels, Acenta and Tekna, with power options from 103hp to 167hp using a 2-litre turbodiesel engine. A full electric version of the Nissan Interstar Electric will follow in 2026.
Sharing its platform with the new Renault Master, Nissan will also offer a range of factory-built conversions with tipper, drop-side and box van options. There will also be several panel van versions with two possible body lengths and two roof heights allowing L2H2, L3H2 and L3H3 variants. There will also be the choice of six-speed manual transmission or nine-speed automatic gearbox.
Safety equipment levels have been improved with the new Interstar now getting a Forward Emergency Braking, Drowsiness Warning and a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System as standard. Nissan also says the reaction time for its emergency braking will be half that of the previous generation.
Other standard systems include Lane Keep Assist, Lane Departure Warning, Intelligent Speed Assistance, Intelligent Emergency Braking with cyclist and pedestrian detection and Side Wind Assist.
On the inside, manual air-conditioning will be standard along with a 10.1-inch touchscreen that has been angled towards the driver to improve visibility. The Interstar also gets two large cup holders, overhead shelves and 10 open storage areas. There are also three closed areas and a multipurpose central seat-back workspace and under-seat storage box.
Top trim level Tekna vans will cost an additional £1,200 + VAT over the Acenta variants and get the following additional equipment.
Most importantly, the Nissan Interstar will come with a five-year or 100,000-mile warranty.
Pre-orders for the Interstar diesel van are open now with sales expecting to begin on 1 October 2024.
