2018 Nissan NV Passenger 3500 SL 3dr Van (5.6L 8cyl 7A)
One of the best most well thought out vehicles I have ever owned. I added 4 wheel drive for $12,000 giving the vehicle a total price of a little over $54,000. At the time I made the purchase, a 4 wheel drive Suburban was about $70,000. I have more room and more comfort for $16,000 less. Everything is well designed and I continue to be impressed by the engineering. The car is quiet … and quick. Despite looking enormous, the wheelbase is similar to a normal pickup. Leg room is fantastic. It is quieter than my Subaru Forester. Although I am hard of hearing, the sound system is more than adequate. Nice, comfortable leather upholstery. My wife who is 5'2" finds the seating position comfortable and enjoys driving this rig. Only drawback is milage. I'ld buy another in a heartbeat.
Not for a family

I went from a Honda Odyssey to this van since our family grew and we needed more room. we have all the kids in boosters or car seats. Here are the pros:
* smooth drive
*comfortable driver configurations (however the shift stick gets in the way of adjusting the ac.)
* handles the road well
* great warranty
* people move out of your way and let you into the lane
Cons:
* very wide turn … which make it difficult to maneuver in shopping parking lots and carpool lanes at school
* Ac has no power in the back since it is such a long run from the front
* seats are poorly designed so car seats do not sit well and safely
* they claim you can configure the seats in so many ways, but you can't and are limited to a few
* essentially it is a truck with seats inside - *the cup holders are on the floor and there is no storage pockets or space so things fly all over the place, *the floors are uneven since they just put down padding in between the runners but once you use the van for a few month the padding starts to cave, * there are not enough car seat anchors so you are limited where you can put them, * the lights are poorly placed, * there is no rear controls for the ac only by the driver, *the seats don't move or recline at all.
* there should be a second sliding door for easier access
* the v8 drinks gas , I get only about 7-8 miles a gallon (I only have 4k miles on the van)
* It is a very high step to get in and out and my little kids keep falling out of the van
There needs to be a mom involved when they update this van or it won't sell well.
Back ac suck

Rear ac blow to slow that my kid do not want to be in the back seat.
Outstanding large family van

2013 Nissan NV Passenger 3500 SL 3dr Van (5.6L 8cyl 5A)
With the expected arrival of our 6th child, our Toyota Sienna minivan was going to be too small for our needs. The thought of diving a huge 12-passenger van did not appeal to us. The choices for a long time have pretty much been either Ford or Chevy, which have limited features, and the Mercedes van, while nice, is just too expensive. So we were very pleased to learn that Nissan has … started selling 12-passenger vans, at about the same price as the Ford and Chevy vans. When we saw all the options available on the NV, we started to get more excited about it. And after about 2200 miles, we've been very pleased with it. It drives surprisingly well for a large van. I highly recommend the NV.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2020 Nissan NV Passenger, so we've included reviews for other years of the NV Passenger since its last redesign.
