Bridgestone tyres acquire four year Nissan NV200 van deal

Another notable van fleet contract deal was announced this week. Nissan has agreed a four-year deal to provide seven NV200 commercial vehicles to tyre company, Bridgestone. The world’s largest tyre company will certainly be glad of these vans, as they themselves had just won a  large contract with Ulsterbus, the Northern Irish public transport operator.

The vans will be driven by Bridgestone tyre technicians carrying out tyre inspections and fittings. The contracted NV200’s are fitted with ply lining and will cover 20,000 miles each year. The drivers have already praised the van for its spacious load capacity and driver comfort over long distances.

Barry Beeston, Nissan corporate sales director said: “These vans will be covering a lot of miles across Northern Ireland making the NV200 the ideal van for any business requiring comfortable and reliable transport. We now look forward to supporting Bridgestone over the years to come as their contract business continues to grow.”

As a light commercial vehicle, the Nissan NV200 is a compact van offering a load volume of 4.2 cubic metres with an overall length of 4.40m and overall width of 1.69m, giving it the ability to handle big van capabilities, whilst keeping its carbon footprint low. It also gives the driver greater visibility with an 'SUV style' high driving position and the NV200’s small size makes it easy to manoeuvre and park, especially in big city environments. Since its launch in 2009, it has proven that it can hold its own against competitors in the compact van sector. It was even named the Professional Van and Light Truck Magazine “Van of the Year 2010”.
