Citroen debuted its new Electric Berlingo at the CV Show prior to its on sale date in the summer.
With the batteries included, the model will cost £21,300, excluding VAT. Once the Government’s Plug-in Van Grant is factored in a further 20% should be lopped off the starting price.
It has a payload of 636kg and load space of up to 3.7m3 – the same as a diesel-powered Berlingo.
With a battery capacity of 22.5kW, Citroen claimed the Berlingo Electrique has a range of 105 miles.
Using a domestic socket the van can be charged in eight and a half hours or it can be charged to 80% of capacity in 35 minutes with a specific 380V three-phase terminal in quick-charge mode.
