Efforts in the Product Development ProcessImproving Fuel EfficiencyWe have improved fuel efficiency of NV350 CARAVAN.●Adoption of variable valve timing●Adoption of charging controlCleaner Exhaust EmissionELGRAND, NV200 VANETTE, NV150AD have received SU-LEV certification as Super Ultra-Low Emission Vehicles.Reduction in Environmental SubstanceHeavy metal compounds Lead: Eliminated (some exclusions including batteries, electronic circuit boards and electrical applica-tion solder) Mercury (and cadmium): Eliminated (some exclusions including discharge headlamps and fluorescent lamps for displays) Hexavalent chromium: Eliminated (some territories excluded but in these cases Nissan has set its own targets and is working to reduce use)Specified bromine flame retardantsEliminatedImprovement of Recycling EfficiencyWe implement vehicle development under the concept of "3 Rs".The first R refers to "Reduce", to design vehicles that are less resource-consuming with a longer lifetime.The second R is "Reuse" meaning that, before end-of-life vehicles are shredded for disposal, vehicle parts are re-moved and given a new life as used parts.The removed parts are also used as raw materials ("Re-cycle").Recycling rate of NV350 CARAVAN is over 95%.NV350 CARAVANRecycleRecycleReduceReduceShredderUsed partsUsed partsReuseReuseNew vehicleNew vehicleEnd-of-life vehicleUsed by a ownerReused in non-vehicle applicationsPolypropylene (PP) partsRecycled for use as resin materialsReused as spare partsReused partsReground and recycledMaterial recycling partsPolypropylene (PP) bumpersParts recycled from the NV350 CARAVAN
