These three joint venture "vans", with a little modification, are station wagons.

With the increasing popularity of automobiles, go on road trip has become a popular way of travel.

Of course, some "top players" are obviously not satisfied with the activity of go on road trip simply driving from point A to point B and then returning to point A. They sublimate go on road trip into a way of life, drive their own cars, take their families, spend a long time traveling around the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, and even take their cars as their homes, turning life into a trip. At this time, as the closest partner of these top players, cars need to play more roles than before. Under this demand, a special type of car-RV came into being.

When it comes to station wagons, we have to mention a classic Volkswagen model-Volkswagen T-van. We have seen it in countless music and film and television works. Its lovely appearance, spacious interior space and diversified modification methods make many fans equate Volkswagen T-van with RV in their minds. Unfortunately, this model has not been sold in China. Fortunately, however, we also have other practical joint venture brand commercial vehicles, which also have great potential to modify station wagons. Here are three joint venture commercial vehicles with modification potential.

Zhengzhou Nissan NV200 is definitely an outstanding representative of Japanese. Although there are Mitsubishi Delika of Southeast Automobile and Toyota Sea Lion of many domestic brands, NV200 has gained a firm foothold in the market with its huge market share, reliable mechanical quality and excellent fuel economy. Previously, NV200 has been playing the role of a commercial vehicle in China, and it is a real "return artifact" regardless of manned cargo pulling. At the same time, the excellent space performance of NV200 also gives it great potential to modify the RV.

After the NV200 was introduced into China, its appearance has not changed much from that of local models, which makes it a favorite modification object for many JDM players. In addition, NV200 has many mature modification cases in Japan, and there are also many modification kits to choose from, so NV200 is a good choice for modifying station wagons.

Ford Transit is also a commercial vehicle with a large domestic market. Like NV200, it can still carry people and goods. Unlike NV200, Ford Transit has two power systems: gasoline and diesel. Therefore, Ford Transit can be seen not only in cities, but also in some high-altitude areas, despite the bad weather conditions and poor road conditions, relying on the surging power and strong torque of diesel engines, Ford Transit can also reach its destination.

In addition to a variety of options in terms of power, Ford Transit also has more options in terms of models. It has long axis, short axis, high roof and low roof to choose from. For an RV, the most important thing is space performance. Obviously, Ford Transit can meet more demands.

When it comes to Ford Transit, it is natural to talk about Iveco. Compared with Ford Transit, Iveco has a longer history in the domestic market. It not only plays a huge role in the civil field, but also is used as a military logistics vehicle because of its excellent mechanical properties. Some specialized Iveco can even undertake first-line combat missions. In the civil field, it is not only used as a commercial vehicle, but also plays an important role in special fields. There are also a few ambulances, fire engines and police cars modified from the Iveco van platform.

Like Transit, Iveco also has two powertrains to choose from, gasoline and diesel, as well as a variety of wheelbase and top height options. Different from Transit and NV200, Iveco, as a station wagon, has a more direct modification scheme, which is to directly "carry" the RV module by using Iveco's van chassis. This is also a common modification method at present, and the model represented by Iveco RV is also the current station wagon rental.

From the once "return to nature artifact" to today's station wagon, these well-known joint venture vans have become the best companions to accompany us in "poetry and distance". If there is an opportunity, we might as well drive our favorite RV in a different way and have a different journey.
