Citroen offers you to respond to them through a varied range to meet your needs.
The range of our vehicles is given according to the WLTP (Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedures) protocol which gives users a more accurate and realistic view of the autonomy values according to the actual use of the vehicle.
In WLTP cycle
Up to 55 km: C5 Aircross Hybrid SUV and up to 650 km in thermal mode
Up to 75 km: Citroen AMI 100% ëlectric
Up to 260 km: Citroen-Jumper 100% ëlectric
Up to 275 km: Citroen-Berlingo Van 100% ëlectric
Up to 330 km: Citroen-SpaceTourer 100% ëlectric
Citroen-Jumpy 100% ëlectric
Up to 350 km: Citroen 100% ëlectric
For more details on the autonomy of a particular vehicle, explore the dedicated vehicle pages. Vehicle technical sheets are also available for download.
You should also know that the actual range of your vehicle also depends on several factors:
● Speed,
● The use of heating, air conditioning,
● Your driving style,
● The load carried.
What are the factors that have the greatest impact on the range of an electric vehicle?
There are mainly 5 factors that impact the range of an electric vehicle:
● Speed: The faster you drive, the more electricity you consume. At 130km / h the range is divided by 2. Superchargers are available on the motorway network. Time for a coffee break, a lunch and you can recover up to 80% autonomy in about 30 minutes.
● Temperature:
ø Air conditioning / Heating: There is a loss of autonomy of 10 to 30% depending on the model.
It is recommended to program the heating or air conditioning before taking the wheel, as long as it is plugged in. Thermal preconditioning is possible from your smartphone via the My Citroën application.
ø Cold: Loss of autonomy of about 5% when the outside temperatures are below 0 ° C.
● Driving Style: A loss of range of around 10% has been observed with sporty driving.
● The load transported: The more your vehicle is loaded (luggage, cargo), the less its autonomy will be important.
● Wear: Loss of about 10% to 15% after 5 years of use or 75,000 km. At Citroën, the battery is guaranteed for 8 years or 160,000 km at the 1st expiry and it is guaranteed for a charge of 70% of its capacity.
