Nissan’s e-NV200 electric van will be priced from £13,393 with grants when it goes on sale in July.

Customers can either choose to buy e-NV200 outright or opt for ‘Flex’ – a battery leasing option that reduces the initial purchase price.

The e-NV200 models qualify for a Government grant – up to £8,000 Plug In Van Grant (PiVG) for the panel van, and up to £5,000 Plug In Car Grant (PiCG) for the five-seater combi.

The electric van is available in panel van and five-seat combi versions with two trim levels.

With the Government incentive, the e-NV200 van, in entry level Acenta trim, can be purchased outright for £16,562.20 while the similarly specced combi is priced at £22,859.

Those choosing the Flex option, with monthly battery rental starting from £61 per month will see their initial purchase price on the same Acenta level van and combi fall to £13,393 and £17,855 respectively.
