2012 Nissan NV to start at $24,590*

Nissan is getting to work launching its NV commercial vehicle in the North American market, and prices have just been announced. The body-on-frame NV will be built in Canton, Mississippi and will start at $24,590 for a V6-powered NV with standard roof. A high-roof SV-trim NV 3500 with a 317-hp, 5.6-liter V8 rings up at $32,190.

Nissan’s work van offering joins the ranks of a burgeoning segment populated by vehicles like the Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and even the Dodge Grand Caravan Cargo Van. The only one of those vehicles that approaches the NV’s space is the Sprinter, and Nissan’s muscular V6 and V8 powertrains are brawnier than everyone else. It’s almost enough to make you want to go to work. Almost. Press release posted after the jump.
