Citroen's Game-Changer: The 2024 Berlingo Goes All-Electric in Europe
by AutoExpert | 13 December, 2023
The 2024 Citroen Berlingo is making a grand entrance, and it's going electric – but only in Europe. Citroen is keeping its options open elsewhere, offering the Berlingo with classic diesel and petrol engines in other markets.
This isn't just any update; the new Berlingo is a total revamp of its predecessor. It's got a fresh, modern look that's bound to turn heads.
The front end is where the magic happens: a brand-new bumper, a sleeker grille, and those eye-catching three-segment LED headlights. And, of course, the iconic Citroen badge is front and center, proudly displayed.
But that's not all. The Berlingo’s back end also got a makeover, keeping things stylish yet understated with its vertical LED taillights. Color choices? You’ve got five, including the vibrant Kiana Blue and the classic Perla Nera Black. Plus, you can pick between 16- and 17-inch wheels to really make it your own.
Inside, comfort is king. The Advanced Comfort front seats are a dream, with high-quality foam and side supports for those long drives.
The second row has three individual seats, and if you opt for the XL version, you get two more in the third row. Also, the rear window opens separately from the tailgate – a small but neat touch.
Tech-wise, Citroen isn't holding back. The Berlingo is loaded with features like the My Citroen Play 10-inch infotainment display, wireless smartphone integration, a digital instrument cluster, and a whole bunch of driving assistance technologies.
Under the hood, the Berlingo's electric motor packs a punch with 136 hp, powered by a 50 kW LFP battery. It's efficient too, boasting a 20% range improvement over the old model. Charging options? You've got them: a fast 30-minute charge to 80%, or a full charge at home in just a few hours.
While Europe gets the all-electric version, other markets will see a variety of engine options, including BlueHDi diesel and PureTech petrol engines.
In short, the 2024 Citroen Berlingo is more than just a car; it's a statement. Electric, stylish, and packed with features – it's definitely something to look forward to!
