The Nissan PrimaStar is a medium commercial vehicle originally launched in 2001, and is available in panel van, combi, bus and platform cab configurations. Two wheelbases and two roof heights are available, as well as three diesel engines and a petrol. The vehicle resulted from a joint venture between the American General Motors and French manufacturer Renault and is also sold as the Renault Trafic and the Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro. The vehicle is primarily manufactured at General Motors Manufacturing Luton (previously IBC), England, and also by Nissan at their Zona Franca facility in Barcelona, Spain.

The vehicle is distinguished by its somewhat flamboyant and unconventional front design, compared with its more traditional competitors such as the Ford Transit and Volkswagen Transporter. The vehicle has been an incredible success across Europe and has resulted in successful large fleet deals with the Deutsche Post (German Mail) and BT (British Telecom).
