NEMO - a new light van

Safety tailored to the use of Nemo
In
addition to a standard driver's airbag, Nemo can be
fitted optionally
with a front passenger airbag and front side airbags.
If a passenger
airbag is fitted, it can be disabled for carrying
young children.
Seatbeits with force limiters and pyrotechnic
pretensioners are adapted
to the airbags. The driver has a seatbeit warning
light.
One of the concerns of commercial vehicle users is to
protect the goods carried.
For this reason, in the same way as on models further
up the market,
Nemo's loading bay can be locked independently of the
cab, using the
plip control from the outside or a button on the
dashboard on the
inside.
At the same time, the doors lock automatically when
the car is moving.
An indicator on the instrument cluster informs the
driver that the
doors are unlocked.

Efficient running gear
The
running gear is designed to ensure excellent road
manners in all load
conditions while maintaining a level of comfort
meeting the
requirements of target customers. The suspension is of
the McPherson
type at the front with a flexible transverse bar at
the rear. The
14-inch wheels (15inch as an option or with the
Worksite Pack) are shod
with Michelin tyres. The braking system, with ABS as
standard,
comprises vented discs at the front and drums at the
rear.

Savings in all areas
Buyers
of small vans, and particularly fleet managers, view
the overall
cost-in-use of their vehicle as extremely important.
Nemo offers a
number of advantages in this respect:
- a selling price lower than that of the
conventional small vans currently on the market;
- a design that ensures robust strength and a long
service life;
- limited maintenance costs, with servicing every
30,000 km or two years;
- repair
costs limited by using parts of proven reliability,
and wear parts
whose life span is designed to reflect the
maintenance plan;
- low consumption, making Nemo the new benchmark in
its class.

to provide
passengers with well-being, comfort and safety.

Features worthy of a passenger car
A host of useful details make Nemo a vehicle with
features worthy of a modern passenger car including:

designed ergonomics with controls that fall easily
to hand, and a
high-mounted gear lever, close to the steering
wheel, with
ergonomically positioned controls and driving aids;
- a range of stowage compartments, essential for a
commercial vehicle, with up to 12 locations at the
front to satisfy a
wide range of professional requirements;
- a multi-adjustable driving position: drivers of
all
shapes and sizes can adjust the steering wheel and
seat to find the
right position;
- a high-quaiity audio system with four
loudspeakers,
including two tweeters in the doors; pre-equipment
for a Bluetooth(r)
telephone.
