Interior figures are between the walls and floor-to-headliner, derived from manufacturer specs and calibrated against published cargo dimensions. Payload ≈ gross weight minus kerb weight — it varies with engine and options, so treat it as a planning guide.

What fits
- Standing: after a typical floor and ceiling build-up (~7 cm), the NV400 L2H3 leaves about 2.07 m of headroom.
- Bed across: the widest variant measures 1.76 m between the walls — short of a 1.86 m mattress, so plan the bed lengthwise or add wheel-box flares.
- Parking: every variant is over 2.0 m tall outside — underground garages and most height barriers are out.
Payload budget
Depending on variant, the NV400 carries roughly 1,005 kg to 1,462 kg of conversion, gear, water and people before hitting the gross weight limit. A typical full build lands between 400 and 700 kg before you pack — weigh the plan before you cut.

The gallery has no layout on the Nissan NV400 yet. Its floor plans are drawn on other vans; the planner starts a NV400 with its real interior dimensions and you draw your own layout.

Frequently asked
How long is the NV400 inside?
The cargo area runs from 2.58 m in the shortest variant to 4.38 m in the longest, measured from the bulkhead to the rear doors.
Can I stand up in a Nissan NV400?
Yes — you can stand up in a Nissan NV400 from the H2 roof up: 1.80–1.89 m floor-to-headliner, about 1.73–1.82 m after a typical 7 cm floor and ceiling build-up, which stands an adult up to about 1.70 m. By roof height — H1: 1.70 m raw, ~1.63 m finished — sit-down only; H2: 1.80–1.89 m raw, ~1.73–1.82 m finished — stands a 1.70 m adult; H3: 2.05–2.14 m raw, ~1.98–2.07 m finished — stands a 1.95 m adult. Rule of thumb: you need a raw interior height of your own height plus 10 cm.
How much payload does a NV400 have for a conversion?
Roughly 1,005 kg to 1,462 kg depending on variant and engine — gross weight minus kerb weight. The build, water, gear and passengers all come out of that number.
Are there ready-made Nissan NV400 camper layouts or floor plans?
Not in the gallery yet. The planner has every NV400 variant with its real interior, so you can draw the floor plan in an empty van or start from a template.
Which vans are the same as the NV400?
The NV400 shares its body and dimensions with: Renault Master, Vauxhall Movano, Nissan Interstar, Opel Movano (to 2021).

Who makes this
I'm Vladimir. I'm planning my own conversion, and none of the tools I tried could tell me whether a layout would fit or what it would do to the rear axle, so I made this one. I work on it alone. If something's wrong or missing, write to me — the address goes to my inbox.
