Nissan Cabstar wins VansA2Z’s light truck of the year 2012

Nissan Cabstar has been voted Light Truck of the Year at VansA2Z’s annual awards.

Cabstar was judged to be the best in class for its choice of wheelbases and conversions and its improved cabin space for driver and passenger comfort.

Neil McIntee, Editor of
VansA2Z commented, “Performance has improved greatly since the current powerplants were installed under the cab - Cabstar has a forward-control configuration - and anyone who hasn’t sat in one for a while will be pleasantly surprised by the amount of room afforded the occupants. Cabstar is designed to be an uncomplaining workhorse and it fulfils the task admirably.”

The Cabstar is available as a single or crew chassis cab with a choice of three wheelbases - short, mid and long, plus two-engine options; 2.5-litre with a choice of five- or six-speed manual gearbox and 3.0-litre which is equipped with a six-speed manual gearbox.

There are also a number of conversions available - Dropside, Tipper, Box Van and a Freezer/Chiller.

“The Cabstar is perfect for urban environments and delivers value to any business with low cost of ownership and exceptional manoeuvrability. We are delighted to receive this award from VansA2Z,” commented James Douglas, Corporate Sales Director, Nissan Motor (GB) Ltd.
