Citroen Berlingo

The Citroen Berlingo is continuing to be a popular choice for fleet operators. The versatile van has recently been awarded the best in class trophy from Fleet vans and Citroen report that the Berlingo accounts for 49.7% of the carmakers sales and Citroen lease contracts.

The Citroen Berlingo has undergone some excellent updates and now boasts a whole load of features that will ensure that this great little van continues to win accolades and praise from fleet managers and van drivers.

There are two versions of the Berlingo available here in the UK. These are the L1 and L2. The L1 version has been widened by 80mm and extended by 240mm. This compact van now boasts a larger load area and increased weight capacity. You can now fold down the passenger seat to extend the load area even further making it ideal for those longer items.

And these recent modifications aren’t limited to the vans load carrying capabilities. The new look Berlingo boasts a new, stylish, aerodynamic shape that results in less lower noise levels when on the road. The headlights and rear lights have been moved to minimize the risk of minor damage and the windscreen has been enlarged to provide improved driver visibility. Internally there is even more storage space including a passenger side glove compartment and larger door pockets.

But one of the most outstanding new features is available in the LX model. This featured is called Extenso Seating which provides a valuable third seat in between the front two seats. The three seat feature is unique to the Berlingo as the only van in its class to offer this facility.

The standard Berlingo boasts a whole load of features that you would ordinarily not expect to find in vans at this price or in this class. These include electric windows, heated wing mirrors and a radio / CD player.

You would reasonably expect a van that is so full of appealing features to be an expensive choice. But you can find this van at some very affordable van lease prices. You can get a Citroen van lease deal from as little as £170 per month with various options including van lease purchase.
