Citroën Relay dropside vans
Citroën Relay dropside van lease FAQs
The Citroën Relay vans are all fitted with a robust 2.2-litre BlueHDi diesel engine, specifically designed to meet the stringent Euro 6.2 emissions standards. These engines have gained a strong reputation among drivers for their reliability and powerful performance.
When it comes to the Relay panel vans, you have the option to choose between two output levels: 120hp and 140hp. However, the dropside variant is only available with the more powerful 140hp option. Combined with a six-speed manual gearbox (unfortunately, automatic models are not available), it demonstrates exceptional capability in carrying heavy loads.
For those operating in low-emission zones, there is also an e-Relay powered by a fully electric motor.
All Relay dropside models are built on the well-equipped Enterprise Edition trim, ensuring that each variant comes with a high level of features and amenities. Due to its extensive range of practical features and safety equipment, the Relay sets a benchmark among other commercial vans, providing exceptional value and peace of mind for drivers.
Standard in every model is cruise control with a programmable speed limiter, allowing for a convenient and controlled driving experience.
To enhance practicality, a 12V socket is installed in the load area, providing added convenience for powering equipment and devices. Additionally, a USB charging socket is situated on the dashboard, allowing for easy and convenient charging of electronic devices. For those who need to work on the go, a dashboard tablet computer holder is provided, ensuring a secure and accessible workspace while on the move. Please check the vehicle specification tab to find out what's included in each particular model.
The crew cab version provides a second row of seats, allowing you to carry up to six passengers.

When you purchase or lease a Citroën van, you will receive a 3-year cover starting from the date the vehicle was first registered. During the first two years, there is no mileage limit, and in the final year of the cover, the mileage is limited to 100,000 miles. This warranty provides peace of mind and protection for your new van, however, we highly recommend opting for our vehicle maintenance package which offers additional peace of mind by covering every aspect of vehicle maintenance throughout your lease agreement. These packages are available on all of our car leasing and van leasing offers.
