Berlingo van leasing

1. Four Powertrains to Choose From

For a small van, the range of powertrain options is remarkable, offering a choice of two diesel engines, one petrol engine, and a fully electric version.

The 1.2-litre petrol engine stands out for its punchy performance, delivering an impressive 110 horsepower, making it ideal for urban driving or lighter loads. Despite its power, it maintains respectable efficiency at 40 mpg and emissions ranging between 142-171 g/km.

For those seeking optimal fuel efficiency, the 1.5-litre diesel engine is available in two configurations. The manual version generates 100 horsepower, achieving an excellent 60 mpg and emissions as low as 136-161 g/km, making it perfect for businesses prioritising cost-effective operations.

If you need a bit more power, the automatic 1.5-litre diesel engine delivers 130 horsepower while maintaining solid efficiency at 57 mpg and emissions of 143-171 g/km. This option is great for drivers requiring smoother performance or tackling heavier loads.

Engine	Transmission	Power (hp)	Efficiency /mpg	Emissions g/km
1.2 Petrol	Manual	110	40	142-171
1.5 Diesel	Manual	100	60	136-161
1.5 Diesel	Automatic	130	57	143-171

For a truly future-forward option, the fully electric Berlingo van offers zero-emission driving without compromising on performance. Its 136 horsepower ensures strong acceleration, while the 213-mile range makes it highly practical for daily business use. The 50 kWh battery can be fast-charged to 80% in just 30 minutes with a 100kW DC charger, or fully recharged in 5 to 7.5 hours using a standard charger.

Engine	Transmission	Power (hp)	Range	Battery kWh	Fast Charge	Standard Charge
Electric	Automatic	136	213	50	30 mins	5 - 7.5 hrs

2. Cargo Load Volume

The Citroën Berlingo van offers impressive cargo capacity, with options tailored to meet diverse business needs:

• Medium (M): Provides a load volume of 3.3 to 3.8 cubic metres, making it ideal for smaller loads and urban operations.
• Extra Large (XL): Offers an expansive load volume of 3.9 to 4.4 cubic metres, a notable increase from its predecessor, making it perfect for larger or bulkier cargo.

The ranges in cargo volume for the Medium (M) and Extra Large (XL) versions account for variations in configuration and equipment, such as the inclusion of double sliding doors or the Worksite Pack. The Worksite Pack adds rugged features like underbody protection, all-terrain tyres, a 30mm raised ride height, and Grip Control, making the Berlingo ready for more challenging terrains.

What’s remarkable is that the electrically powered version of this van offers the same cargo volume as its petrol and diesel counterparts. Typically, bulky battery packs can intrude on interior space, forcing engineers to make compromises. However, Citroën has cleverly integrated the battery beneath the floor, ensuring that the electric version maintains its full practicality and cargo capacity without sacrificing any interior dimensions.

3. Towing Capacity & Payload

The towing and payload capacities of the Citroën Berlingo van vary depending on the chosen variant, showcasing its versatility as a small van. The Berlingo can tow between 750 and 1,050 kg (braked), depending on the configuration, making it suitable for a range of work requirements.

When it comes to payload, the diesel 'M' version impresses with a carrying capacity of 1,059 kg, setting a high standard for small vans. The larger 'XL' body length, also powered by diesel, offers a maximum payload of 953 kg, providing ample capacity for bulkier loads.

As expected, the electric version has a slightly reduced payload due to the added weight of the battery pack. The electric 'M' version supports a payload of 781 kg, while the 'XL' version offers 709 kg.

Engine	Body Size	Cargo Volume (m³)	Payload (kg)	Towing Capacity (braked)
Diesel	M	3.3	1,059	1000
Diesel	XL	3.9	953	1050
Petrol	M	3.3	990	900
Electric	M	3.3	781	750
Electric	XL	3.9	709	750
