Nissan takes Best Van Manufacturer honour

This year's British Insurance Vehicle Security Awards have seen Nissan crowned Best Van Manufacturer for the firm's continuing commitment to vehicle security.

In addition, the Nissan Primastar secured the win in the heavy van security category for the second year running, with the firm focused not only avoiding vehicle break-ins and theft, but also on recovering models that have been stolen more swiftly.

"For many commercial vehicle owners any potential threat to their vehicle is not only an inconvenience, but can also represent a genuine threat to their livelihood. Strong vehicle security is imperative," commented Thatcham chief executive Peter Shaw.

Nissan's commercial vehicle fleet sales rose again last month, with the company reporting a 4.4 per cent market share in Europe for its models.

The firm has so far seen 6,483 light commercial vehicle registrations (LCV) in the year to the end of September.

Six models are presently offered in Nissan's LCV range - the NV200, Primastar, NV400, Cabstar, Navara and Pathfinder Van.
