The Nissan Clipper EV is the Nissan-badged Mitsubishi Minicab EV, an electric kei van built by Mitsubishi on the sixth-generation Minicab platform at Mizushima. It was launched in December 2023 alongside the Minicab EV, whose model code changed to U69V with a 20.0 kWh battery. Its motor makes 31 kW (42 PS) and 196 N⋅m, with a range of 180 km.

Owning one

Nissan dropped this Clipper in 2013 because Mitsubishi quit building its own petrol kei trucks and vans for 2014.
The Clipper’s face had a clever trick: of its four big chrome-ringed circles up front, only two were actually headlights — the other two were cooling vents styled to match.
Three years before Nissan absorbed Prince Motor Company, Prince redesigned its cabover Clipper truck with quad headlights and renamed it the T630/T631 Super Clipper.
The original Prince Clipper's face was built around six oval cooling vents — an unmistakable grille nobody else copied.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
When Mazda's E2000 — the truck that became the Titan — launched in January 1964, the factory was tasked with building 1,900 of them a month.
Swaraj Mazda built this truck under license in India from 1985, and the plant survived name changes all the way to SML Isuzu.
Indonesia built this pickup for 28 years with no successor, the last one leaving the Jakarta line in January 2019 after 324,960 units.
Suzuki's first-ever diesel engine, fitted to the Super Carry, is so small that it isn't able to power an air-conditioning system at all.
A right-hand-drive DJ-3A was built so postal drivers could reach roadside mailboxes without leaving the seat.
The Power Wagon name and civilian pickup design were derived directly from the WC-series military trucks Dodge built for World War II.
Suzuki kept the L20 Carry at the exact same 21 hp as its predecessor but still called it progress — the gain was a patented Cylinder Crank Injection lubrication system, not more power.
This generation of Titan quietly became the ancestor of two other trucks entirely: it was license-built by Kia as the Kia Titan in South Korea, and formed the basis of the Australian Ford Trader.
