People\'s Opinion
N/A / 5
Peugeot Partner:
The Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Partner are a range of minivans produced since 1996 and marketed under the Citroën and Peugeot marque. They are sold as light commercial vehicles or as a passenger multi-purpose-vehicle variant with rear seats and windows. They were initially a product of the French PSA Group, which later became part of the multinational Stellantis conglomerate. The third generation has also been sold under the Opel and Vauxhall Motors marques as the Combo, by Toyota as the Proace City from 2019, and by Fiat as the Doblò from 2022....(Read more on Wikipedia)
I (Phase I) Overview:
Peugeot Partner (I (Phase I)). With 120 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. It has moderate fuel consumption (~8.9 l/100km). Weighing only 1140 kg, it’s quite light. Front‑wheel drive delivers efficiency and easy handling. Acceleration is relatively slow (0–100 km/h in 17.5 s). The top speed reaches 150 km/h. A spacious vehicle designed to transport passengers comfortably, often with sliding doors. Seating for 5 makes it ideal for daily use.
Performance Verdict
An adequate petrol engine for city driving and lighter loads, offering slightly better acceleration than the 1.9D but still far from sporty.
Fuel Economy
Acceptable fuel economy for a petrol engine of its size and era, though not as frugal as the diesel option for longer journeys.
Best Use Case:
City driving, short commutes, light passenger transport, and users preferring petrol engines for smoother operation.
