The Commercial Vehicle Centre has for more than 40-years been a leader in implementing, developing, selling and servicing Nissan Diesel/UD Trucks first in Southland and Otago, and now South Island wide.

More than any other company, CVC helped cement the reputation Nissan Diesel achieved for robust durable trucks that became a by-word for reliability in the South that for a period, boasted the highest density per head of population of the brand anywhere in the world outside of Japan.

Now branded as UD Trucks, the Nissan legacy lived on with the introduction of the Quon in 2016.

CVC – Nissan Diesel UD – UD Trucks

CVC has an amazing history, and continued a legacy from its predecessor – Melhops – to establish Nissan Diesel UD as one of the most dependable and durable truck brands in the country.

The first Nissans arrived in the late-sixties and are still being sold (now as UD Trucks) – by CVC who just marked 40 years of operations.
