Recently drove the NT400 by Nissan for a delivery. The vehicle’s increased cargo capacity and lightweight design are noticeable strengths. The performance of the updated engine is adequate, though I wish the handling in tighter city areas was slightly more agile. Maintenance intervals being extended is a welcome benefit.

I've driven the updated NT400 recently, and it's got its advantages. The redesigned grille and upgraded headlights add a modern touch. The smaller but efficient 2.5-liter turbo-diesel engine feels responsive while consuming less fuel compared to the older model. Maintenance intervals stretch further, which is handy. The interior improvements like the advanced stereo are nice, but the seating remains basic. Overall, it's practical but not overly refined.

Been driving light trucks and big vans for years, and the NT400 is one of those rigs that makes sense the minute you try to park it in a tight town centre. Visibility is good because you’re sat right up front, and the turning circle is properly small for something that can carry this much.

I’ve used a tipper setup and the ladder chassis is handy since you can get it built how you need (dropside/box/tipper, whatever). Payload is the whole point here and it shows.

Downsides: the cab is pretty basic and feels cramped if you’re used to a Sprinter/NV400 type cabin. Ride is harsh too, especially when it’s empty, you feel the bumps. Also no auto box, so if you’re stop-start all day, your left leg will notice.

Engine wise the 3.0 diesel pulls well low down. I’d take the 6-speed version if you’re doing any longer runs.

Reliability? These are basically old Cabstars and they usually just get on with it. If you’re buying used, check underneath by the driver’s seat for corrosion, that’s a known thing.

Just had my experience with the NT400. First off, it's a spacious cab-really makes a difference on long shifts. The drop side panels are user-friendly, though the clips could use better positioning. Driving dynamics are solid, although without load, it's naturally a bit on the bouncy side. The turning circle is commendable, making urban navigation easy. Onboard tech like sat-nav and Bluetooth stood out, though I'd go easy on the speed-tops around 68 comfortably. Servicing access is decent too.

I've had the Nissan NT400 for a few jobs now. The turning circle is actually a lot tighter than you’d expect for the size. Makes it easier when parking in small yards or squeezing down those tight city roads. The cab is set up pretty high, visibility is solid but that came with a bit of a weird blind spot for me near the passenger side, takes a bit to get used to. It's not the smoothest going over potholes, you feel every bump, but I guess that’s kind of expected for vans like this. Loading height is low, back is easy to get stuff in and out, which my knees definitely appreciate at the end of a long day. Can’t say much for running costs so far, not super cheap, not costing me a fortune yet. Had a bit of trouble with some of the smaller switches on the dash, felt a bit plasticky and loose, but otherwise controls are straightforward.
