    A wolf in sheeps clothing.

    I was looking to purchase the vehicles for my shop and look at this...



    So I thought to myself... Boy. That steering wheel and instrument cluster looks kinda familiar...

    http://news.pickuptrucks.com/2014/04...y-express.html

    So this is indeed a chevy, specifically the 2015 Chevy Express City van.. Perhaps GM and Nissan have a little backdoor agreement... Little more corporate poking shows that this little van is a Nissan NV200S work van.

    But, there are indeed (IMHO) some micra parts in this wee beasty.

    Look at the vent on the left and right.
    the electric door/windows buttons look familiar as well.

    Wow, it seems like it's the same instrument cluster as in the Micra. No temperature gauge! Definetely the same circular air vents too. This is really funny! The van is assembled in Mexico too.

    Micra gauge clutster, steering wheel, vents, window/locks, mirror controls, tcs, fuel door and hood release. That's crazy!

    Even the crease in the seat looks like a Micra seat. Another "re-badged" product I guess.

    Isn't the Nissan NV200 actually a re badged Renault?
