The Nissan Trade is the most common name for a family of light commercial vehicles that was produced by Ebro Motor Ibérica from 1976 to 1986 and by Nissan Motor Ibérica from 1986 to 2001 in Spain. This truck was marketed only in Europe. It was a replacement for the Ebro F108, itself a rebadged Alfa Romeo Romeo van which was marketed exclusively in Spain. It was designed by AISA, owners of Avia, and originally marketed under both the Ebro and Avia brands. Avia was taken over by Ebro in 1977 and Nissan took a share of that company in 1979. Nissan took a majority stake in Ebro in 1982, and began phasing out the Avia brand. In 1985 the Ebro F-series went on sale in the UK, as the "Nissan Ebro Trade" (but only with Ebro badging). After a significant facelift in 1986 the Ebro nameplate was retired and the range was sold as the Nissan Trade.
