The Nissan e-NV200 WORKSPACe, created in collaboration with UK design workshop Studio Hardie, is the world’s first electric-powered van/office.

Filled with space saving fold-away space and extendible sections, the van contains an integrated fold-out desk, touch-screen computer, wifi, Bluetooth audio, smartphone-controlled LED lights, a panoramic glass roof, a mini-fridge and a barista-level coffee maker. 

Half an hour at a roadside EV dock charges the whole unit to 80% capacity.
