Citroën reveals the new electric ë-Berlingo

Apart from some cosmetic differences, the ë-Berlingo pure-electric MPV is virtually the same as the Vauxhall / Opel Combo-e Life that was unveiled earlier this month.

Therefore, both Medium and XL variants will be offered which have overall lengths of 4.40 m (14’ 5”) and 4.75 m (15’ 7”) respectively. Up to seven seats can be specified.

The electric motor’s output depends on the driving mode selected:
  • ‘Eco’ minimises energy consumption by restricting power to 81 PS (80 bhp / 60 kW) and torque to 180 Nm (132 lb-ft)
  • ‘Normal’ increases those figures to a mid-level setting of 108 PS (107 bhp / 80 kW) and 210 Nm (154 lb-ft)
  • ‘Power’ permits better performance by allowing access to the full 136 PS (134 bhp / 100 kW) and 260 Nm (191 lb-ft)

With an under-floor 50 kWh lithium-ion battery pack and a two-mode regenerative braking system, maximum range according to the WLTP method is 174 miles (280 kilometres). It’s adequate but not outstanding, in other words.

A 7.4 kW single-phase on-board charger is fitted as standard, while an 11.0 kW three-phase alternative is going to be optional. More significantly, 100 kW DC fast charging is supported, so a recharge to 80 percent capacity is possible in just half an hour.

‘New’ Jensen Interceptor

There’s something very retro-chic about using a classic car as a daily driver, but it’s an activity that comes with the permanent risk that aged mechanicals might expire at any time. Hence the concept of regeneration by substituting ancient components with fresh replacements. Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested. Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
