The pure-electric Citroen e-Berlingo MPV is available to buy in the UK now, with costs starting from £29,575 including the government’s £2,500 grant.
First deliveries will arrive in October, with the new Citroen e-Berlingo supplying renewed competition for the likes of the Nissan e-NV200 Combi and all-new Renault Kangoo.

The e-Berlingo line-up is separated into two trim-levels, called feel and style XTR. The entry-level model includes 16-inch steel wheels, LED daytime running lights, rear vehicle parking sensors, automatic headlights, electric door mirrors and Citroen’s Airbump body cladding.

Inside, purchasers get green fabric upholstery, folding rear tray tables and a split-folding second row bench. There’s also an eight-inch infotainment system and a hold of common chauffeur support technology, such as active lane keeping assist and active safety braking.
Feel designs are also available in two wheelbases, called M or XL, and as the battery pack is mounted under the MPV’s floor, this new electric variant uses the same level of space inside as combustion-engined Berlingo models.
The five-seat short wheelbase model has a boot capacity of 775 litres, while the seven-seat, long wheelbase XL variant can swallow as much as 1,050 litres. The latter option adds an extra £2,000 to the MPV’s starting price, though.
