Facilities management company Atalian Servest has taken delivery of 100 Nissan’s new NV250 compact vans.

Atalian Servest will use the vehicles across its wide range of services including catering, cleaning, technical services, projects and security.

The deal is part of Atalian Servest’s fleet renewal programme and the NV250 was the obvious choice because of its size, price and low running costs.

The NV250 is available with a payload of up to 800kg and comes in two body lengths. Atalian Servest has opted for the long-wheelbase panel van.

On board, it benefits from Nissan’s Intelligent Mobility technologies, including Hill Start Assist and the manufacturer’s Extended Grip switchable traction control system.

Equipped with an advanced 1.5-litre diesel engine, the NV250 is proven to reduce overall running costs thanks to optimised fuel efficiency.

Glen Napper, Head of Procurement for the UK & Ireland at Atalian Servest, said: “The Nissan LCV range is an excellent fit for Atalian Servest and these particular vehicles offer great versatility. They are a welcome addition to our fleet and complement a batch of fully electric Nissan e-NV200 vehicles delivered earlier in the year.”

Karen Reid, Nissan’s corporate sales manager for Scotland and the north of England, added: “This is a great indication of the popularity we can expect to see from NV250, and it’s no surprise with its great combination of space, technology and Nissan’s five-year warranty.

“It also performs exceptionally well against its competitors in terms of total cost of ownership – this is helped by its excellent residual values plus low service, maintenance and repair costs.”
