After a long while, we've finally got around to recording a van tour of our Nissan eNV200 Camper Van. Join Pete for a walk around of the van and in-depth look at some of the aspects of it.

This camper conversion is based on the fully-electric Nissan eNV200. The vehicle was registered in 2020 and is the top-range Tekna model, with a 40kWh battery pack and includes the heated seats and steering wheel package.
Being fully electric, the vehicle has very low servicing costs and has far less parts to go wrong compared to an internal combustion engine vehicle. And with Zero Emissions, ULEZ Free and Tax Free, your running costs are far lower too! The 40kWh battery can deliver up to 160 miles of range depending on how the vehicle is driven, and can be charged to 80% in just over half an hour.
The conversion includes a much sought-after RIB bed which sleeps two, with two rear seatbelts, fully electric heating and cooking, a microwave, spacious fridge, hot and cold water tanks, centre table, a good sized sink, and lots and lots of storage cupboards. The vehicle was sound-deadened, insulated and carpeted prior to interior fit-out.
Both the vehicle and the camper conversion are fully electric, meaning no potentially dangerous gas or diesel tanks for cooking and heating. A 'shore power' electric hookup socket is included on the outside of the vehicle, allowing the camper to use mains electricity at a campsite to both power the internal electrics and charge the vehicle battery! Solar panels on the roof also keep the camper battery topped up and a roof mounted Maxxair fan can automatically turn on at a set temperature, to keep the vehicle cool on those hot summer days!
The van also comes with multiple charging options for the vehicle, including a 32a portable charger (which can be reduced to as low as 6a, for use at campsites and wall outlets etc), a type 2 cable for untethered 'fast' charging at home and at supermarkets etc, and a CHAdeMO connector for rapid charging at service stations and public chargers (this connector is also compatible with 'Vehicle to Home' charging, allowing the large vehicle battery to power your home!)
One very exciting modification to the vehicle is the upgraded infotainment system. The dash-mounted large touchscreen can display 360 camera views around the vehicle (which is exceptionally helpful for parking in those tight spots) and features Bluetooth audio, streaming audio services (RUclips Music, Spotify, Apple Music etc), FM radio, DAB radio and SD/USB music playback. Being an Android based unit, you can install any apps from the Google Play Store, and we currently have RUclips, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney Plus, BBC iPlayer, ITVx and more installed, meaning you can catch up with all your favorite films and series when you're stopped and charging the vehicle. Navigation can be provided by any sat-nav app (we use Google Maps) and apps like ZapMap make finding your closest charging station so easy!
Externally, the vehicle has had a tow bar added, with an additional tow step installed (allowing you to get higher to access roof boxes mounted on the roof rails etc). It also features chrome side bars, a very bright LED light bar on the front, LED strip lighting at the front and rear of the vehicle including turn signal animations, and all-around upgraded brighter LED bulbs. Driving this vehicle at night is like being able to see in daylight!

Nice conversion! I've also converted an e-NV200 camper van and been on lots of trips in it, it's a great little van
Thanks Glyn! We've followed your conversion for a while, and used it as inspiration for parts of this build! So thanks for all the help ☺️
@@adventurespoons your conversion is the best I've seen! Best of luck with the sale.
Hi,please could you tell me the make of your passenger seat turntable,does it bolt straight on without modfication & where i can purchase it from,many thanks its a great build!
nice plate number 😅❤
I didn't know I wanted an ENV200 camper van, but apparently now I do - amazing conversion! How much power do the solar panels generate? Enough to power a Starlink?
Looks great, the one thing i was curious about was, where is your hob?
Please tell us more about your infotainment system!
Have you ever Recharge It fully by just using the leisure battery and the Solar panels And if so, how long or days did it take? Very curious.
Really interesting video . Not sure if you’ve seen them but im in the process of getting a London Nissan dynamo taxi which is a converted env200 . Haven’t test driven it yet so found this of great use the way you went through all the features 👍🏻. How do you find the reliability? I’ll be doing approx 100 miles a day (40 travel then 60 miles working ) five days a week
Thank you for your kind words ☺️ The taxi conversion sounds really interesting, good luck with that 👍 We find the van really reliable! And doing 100 miles a day should be fine. Winter will be a bit tighter due to the cooler temperatures affecting the battery and you using the heating etc, but in summer you'll have loads of charge left at the end of the day 😎

Very smart indeed. Dont think you mentioned anything about using the climate control while camped overnight which is the great thing about an EV camper. What sort of %/khw would it use overnight?
Yes, the climate control running through the night is such a bonus! Depending on the temperature outside and how warm we want it inside, we reckon it uses roughly 1% battery every hour or two. If we're parked overnight with the climate control on, we only really see a 5-10% drop in battery level, which we don't think is too bad :-)
OK... I was looking to buy a eNV200. I did not know that you could tow with them ?
do you know what the limit is, for towing
@tiepupwe don't do that many miles, but I just had solar and a battery fitted to the house, so we should be able to keep the van fully charge off free solar excess for most of the year. Out side of my budget, but the new Nissan Townstar EV has a decent tow limit, up to 1,500kg
What width bed is that please?
Hello from Trujillo Perú.
I watched your video from start to finish. You didn't say why you're selling.
Hello to Peru! Thank you for watching the video :-) We're selling as we enjoyed converting this one so much, we want to get another van (possibly another eNV200) to convert again!
Hi, is this a self conversion?
Hello, where can I find that type of seats/bad?
It's a RIB Altair bed. I'm pretty sure it's the 112cm wide one
where did you get the bed from please?
It's a RIB Altair and we got it from Mark 1 Conversions 😎
150 Mile range per charge? Where are you going to camp? In your back yard?
You drive to the next charger, stop for a little while to charge and eat, then carry on to your destination :-)
How much are you selling for?
Did you do the conversion?
Is it still for sale?
Thanks
Hello, sorry for the delay in replying! Yes, we did the conversion ourselves and it's still for sale. You can currently find the advert on Facebook Marketplace, here: facebook.com/marketplace/item/290900773955226/
@adventurespoons thanks for that...
I will contact you though Facebook
All this effort and no Amazon Affiliate links available. You really missed out on those.😢
Shame it doesn’t have a pop top
We decided at the start of the build that we didn't want one, as we preferred the 'stealth' look of the van without. It makes it very easy to park up anywhere without any issues :-)
@@adventurespoons I had an NV200 campervan I converted myself. I put a pop top in it. Best thing I ever did. Made selling it much easier in February this year.
Nice conversion but you couldn't pay me enough to get an electric van... you're gonna be very limited on where you can travel! Foolishness and waste of money!
