The 2017 Nissan NV3500 HD Passenger SL is a heavy-duty people mover built with the toughness of a full-size truck and the practicality of a 12-passenger van. In its SL trim, it delivers the most comfort and convenience features available in the NV lineup, making it appealing for large families, shuttle services, and commercial operators who need durability more than luxury. Power comes from a strong 5.6-liter V8 paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission, giving the van confident acceleration and impressive towing capability for its size. On the road, it feels solid and stable, though its truck-based construction means the ride can be firm and bouncy when not fully loaded. Inside, the SL trim adds leather upholstery, heated front seats, navigation, and a straightforward infotainment system, along with flexible seating that can be reconfigured or removed to balance passengers and cargo
