Citro�n's Berlingo gets new Euro 6 diesel engine line-up

Citro�n's best-selling LCV, the Berlingo, is set to make its debut with advanced BlueHDi Euro 6-compliant engines at the CV Show at the Birmingham NEC taking place from 14 -16 April.

The new Berlingo range will go on sale in the UK from July 1 2015, bringing with it further running cost reductions and environmental benefits, combined with driver comfort, safety and convenience gains.

The new model is the first Citro�n LCV range to be powered by Euro 6-compliant BlueHDi diesel engines, which use advanced Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology.

Citro�n will be extending the application of these low-emission, highly fuel-efficient BlueHDi engines across its entire LCV line-up as part of a rolling programme starting in July 2015 and running through to September 2016.

To coincide with the launch of the new Berlingo, an extended range of options will become available for this model, including front parking sensors, a reversing camera and an upgraded colour touchscreen with audio streaming.

Jeremy Smith, Citro�n's head of commercial vehicles and business Sector operations, said: "We are delighted to introduce the new Berlingo, which will provide our growing LCV customer base with the benefits of lower cost of operation, together with the latest comfort, safety and convenience features.

"The new Berlingo will offer exceptional combined cycle fuel economy and among the lowest CO2 and NOx emission figures in its class."
