Relay Van FAQs: What You Need to Know

Q1. How often would I need to charge the Citroën ë-Relay for my operational needs?

The average annual mileage per van in Great Britain is approximately 13,000 miles, translating to an average daily mileage of about 35 miles. Based on the Citroën ë-Relay’s full range of 261 miles, you would need to charge the vehicle approximately every 7.4 days under ideal conditions.

However, most users likely opt for fast charging, which charges the battery to 80% capacity. This reduces the effective range from 261 miles to 209 miles. Additionally, if the van operates with a 60% payload, we assume a conservative 20% reduction in range to account for the additional weight. This further decreases the range to approximately 167 miles.

With this adjusted range and the average daily mileage of 35 miles, you would likely need to recharge the Citroën ë-Relay approximately every 4.8 days.

Q2. What’s the average turnaround time for delivery when leasing a Citroën Relay?

The delivery time for a leased Citroën Relay depends on stock availability and customization requirements. If the van is in stock, delivery can typically be arranged within 10 days. For custom orders or electric models, the turnaround time is approximately 12 weeks, depending on the complexity of the order and supply chain factors. Contact us for real-time availability and updates tailored to your requirements.
