	Nissan's updated versions of its Body Builder's Guides for the Nissan NV Cargo and NV Passenger (pictured above) vehicles are now available.

Nissan has released an updated version of its Body Builder's Guides for the Nissan NV and NV Passenger vehicles. The revised builder's guides contain information on Unloaded Vehicle Weight (UVW) and Center of Gravity (GC). Click on the desired link below to access the guide in PDF form.

• Nissan NV 1500 Cargo Van

• Nissan NV 1500 Passenger Van

The Cargo version of the Nissan NV was released in 2011, and represented the automaker's first full-size van built for the United States and sold by Nissan. The NV uses the same F-Alpha platform as the Nissan Titan that has been highly modified to meet the need for loading, unloading and carrying cargo.

The NV Passenger is a highly configurable people carrier that has 12-passenger seating. There are currently three trim levels available for the NV Passenger, and two engine options—a V6 4.0L 24-valve DOHC, or a V8 5.6L 32-valve DOHC.
