Rating 4 stars

Performance Verdict

A capable turbocharged diesel for passenger transport, offering decent power for carrying multiple occupants.

Fuel Economy

Reasonable fuel economy for a 9-seat diesel, providing a good balance between running costs and performance.

  • • Excellent fuel economy from HDi diesel engines, ideal for commercial use
  • • Spacious and practical interior, offering good cargo or passenger capacity
  • • Robust and generally reliable PSA engines, particularly the diesels
  • • Compact exterior dimensions for a van, making it maneuverable in urban environments

Cons:

  • • Dated safety features and lack of Euro NCAP rating compared to modern vehicles
  • • Some entry-level engines (1.6i, 1.9D) are significantly underpowered, especially when loaded
  • • Basic interior comfort and aesthetics, typical of a commercial vehicle of its era
  • • Potential for rust on older models, particularly around wheel arches and sills
  • • Older design and technology may feel outdated to modern drivers
