DATSUN has introduced a new 2.63-ton panel van giving a payload capacity of 1,320kg (26cwt).
The E23 Urvan is said to have a bigger payload compartment, with a larger one-piece rear door and side sliding door to improve loading and unloading. Both have interior release handles while the rear door lifts are supported by gas filled struts.
Rubber mats and floor hooks are included as standard in the cargo area and in the driving compartment the centre seat folds down to give a walk-through facility.
Further improvements over previous models include servo-assistance and front disc brakes.
Power is provided by a four-cylinder 1,982cc ohy petrol engine rated at 56kW (75bhp) at 4,400rpm giving a maximum torque output of 146Nm (108 lbsft) at 2,800rpm."
Priced at £4,757.55, the new model measures 4.6m (15.4ft) overall, providing a load length of 3m (10ft).
