Citroen electrifies Berlingo line-up with new battery-powered model
The e-Berlingo brings a range up to 171 miles
Citroen has released its new e-Berlingo – an electric version of the firm’s popular compact van.
Powered by a 100kW electric motor coupled to a 50kWh battery pack, the e-Berlingo brings a claimed range of up to 171 miles as well as the capability to add 80 per cent charge in just 30 minutes via 100kW rapid charging.
It retains the regular van’s load-lugging abilities, though, with an 800kg maximum payload and a load capacity of up to 4.4m3. The load area hasn’t been impacted by the fitment of the electric powertrain, either, with the e-Berlingo’s batteries located under the front seats. The battery itself is covered by an eight-year or 100,000-mile warranty, too.
