UK prices for the Citroën e-Dispatch

Ahead of deliveries beginning later this year, Citroën has announced prices for the new pure-electric e-Dispatch van.

As previously confirmed, customers will have a choice of XS (4.60 m / 15’ 1”), M (4.95 m / 16’ 3”) or XL (5.30 m / 17’ 5”) body lengths. Citroën is offering X, Enterprise and Driver trim grades too.

A more important decision for operators – in terms of both financial impact and practicality – is should they select a 50 kWh or 75 kWh lithium-ion battery pack?

The former’s WLTP range is now rated at 148 miles (238 kilometres), while the latter usefully increases that figure to 211 miles (340 kilometres). It’s also worth noting that the battery warranty period is eight years or 100,000 miles (160,934 kilometres) for up to 70% capacity.

In ‘Power’ mode, the electric motor is rated at 134 bhp (100 kW / 136 PS) with 260 Nm (191 lb-ft) of peak torque. ‘Normal’ reduces output to 107 bhp (80 kW / 109 PS) and 210 Nm (154 lb-ft) but, if energy conservation is a priority, then switching to ‘Eco’ sees a further cut to 80 bhp (60 kW / 82 PS) plus 190 Nm (140 lb-ft). Maximum speed is always 81 mph (130 km/h).

With the exception of the entry-level variant, every e-Dispatch is expensive enough to attract the maximum £8,000 Plug-in Van Grant from the government.

After applying the very generous PiVG, starting prices (excluding VAT and on-the-road costs) are:
  • X 50 kWh M – £25,053
  • Enterprise 50 kWh XS – £25,450
  • Enterprise 50 kWh M – £26,150
  • Enterprise 75 kWh M – £31,150
  • Enterprise 75 kWh XL – £32,050
  • Driver 75 kWh M – £34,380

Saab 9-3 Aero Carlsson

Image
Saab has got experience of producing special editions in honour of rally driver Erik Carlsson, having previously named versions of the 900 and 9000 after him during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Now it has decided to do it again, this time to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Swedish driver’s first win in Britain’s RAC Rally, which was achieved at the wheel of a Saab 96. Thankfully, the company has resisted the urge to just bung some fancy alloys and a few other extra bits onto something like a mid-range diesel model. Instead, it appears to have resurrected the limited edition Turbo X from a couple of years ago, as the new edition similarly features a turbocharged 2.8 litre petrol V6, Saab’s XWD all-wheel drive system and a six-speed automatic gearbox. The result is the 9-3 Aero Carlsson saloon, which turns out to be a very rapid car. With 276 bhp (205 kW / 280 PS) and a healthy 400 Nm of torque, the 0-60 mph (96 km/h) dash takes just 6.9 seconds. But it’s in the mid-range t...

American spec Fiat 500

Image
Fiat has released the first details and images of the North American specification 500. The tiny city car will be available in Pop, Lounge and Sport trim levels, and is distinguished from the European version by its more aggressive front and rear bumpers, bigger grille and flared sills. Another unique feature is the engine. Fiat has decided to use the 1.4 MultiAir unit currently found in models such as the Fiat Punto Evo and Alfa Romeo MiTo. Perhaps it felt that using the forthcoming two-cylinder TwinAir in the American 500 would have been too much for markets there to take? There’s no word yet on what power output the MultiAir will have, although in its current applications it comes with either 103 bhp (77 kW / 105 PS), 133 bhp (99 kW / 135 PS) or 167 bhp (125 kW / 170 PS). Similarly, prices have yet to be confirmed, but hopefully both details will have been sorted out by the time the order book for the 500 hatch opens later this year. For convertible fans, the 500C is due ...
