About the Nissan Vanette

The Nissan Vanette is a cabover van and pickup truck produced by the Japanese automaker Nissan from 1978 until 1994. Production in Malaysia continued until about 2010, while Nissan continued to use the Vanette name on a rebadged Mazda Bongo with a more commercial purpose until 2017. The first two generations were engineered by Nissan's Aichi Manufacturing Division. The van has also been sold as the Nissan Sunny-Vanette or Nissan Van. The private purchase passenger platform was replaced by the Nissan Serena in 1991, renamed Vanette in various international markets, and came equipped with multiple engine and drivetrain configurations.
