New Citroen e-Berlingo Electric unveiled

A fully electric version of the contract hire Citroen e-Berlingo Electric has been unveiled.

It should make for a sound choice for both fleet and private customers with zero emissions and a range of 174 miles.

The MPV has won lots of awards and is now available to lease.

This is the latest in the carmaker's strategy to offer an electrified version of each of its models.

Citroen e-Berlingo Electric car lease

The Citroen e-Berlingo Electric car lease uses a 50kW battery and a motor producing 136 hp.

There's also a 7.4Kw onboard charger that is fitted as standard to enable recharging of the battery in 7.5 hours.

Drivers have the option of an 11kW charger to reduce this time to 4.5 hours - whereas a rapid charger will take 30 minutes to recharge the battery to 80% of its capacity.

The new model also features a range of e-services including a remote-control function to schedule remotely the charging of the battery - or setting the interior temperature.

Drivers get a 10-inch digital instrument display, and there's an 8-inch touchscreen that shows the e-Berlingo Electric's remaining battery charge and its energy flow.

Benefit-in-Kind tax rate of 1%

One of the big attractions for the new Citroen is its Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) tax rate of 1%.

That means that private drivers and fleet operators will be able to enjoy low running costs and zero emissions.

Its emissions also mean that the e-Berlingo Electric is exempt from London's ultra-low emissions zone and congestion charges.

Model is available in two lengths

The new model is available in two lengths, with the medium 'M' variant seating five people in comfort.

For those who want to carry seven people, the e-Berlingo Electric XL adds a third row of folding seats.

The boot size is 775 litres in the M variant which expands to a useful 3,500 litres when the passenger seats are folded down.

For the longer XL, the boot size is 1,050 litres, and this will expand to 4,000 litres.

The firm's Airbump exterior styling

There are two trim choices, and both add two sliding side doors and the firm's Airbump exterior styling.

Safety features include active safety brake, lane keeping assist, speed limit recognition and driver attention alert.

The better spec model adds orange fog lights and other flourishes, as well as satnav that has traffic updates in real time.

The contract hire Citroen e-Berlingo Electric offers a great MPV solution for those wanting space and style with low running costs.
