Citroën expands ë-SpaceTourer range with new XL variants

Citroën UK has updated its ë-SpaceTourer electric range, with the model now available in both ‘M’ and ‘XL’ forms.

Both the ‘Flair’ and ‘Business Edition’ trim levels are now available with the larger body size. The ‘XL’ versions measure 5,309mm in length for improved interior space and practicality. In comparison, ‘M’ variants measure 4,959mm in length. Both the ‘M’ and ‘XL’ versions benefit from the same wheelbase of 3,275mm, with the extra length translating into increased load space of 3,100-litres (loaded to the roof), compared with 2,550-litres in ‘M’ versions.

The ‘Business Edition’ variant is capable of seating up to nine people, in three rows of seats.

‘Flair’ variants come with eight seats, with the driver and front passenger seats featuring heating and massage functions. ‘Flair’ trim also features Citroën Connect Nav with real time traffic alerts, as well as Citroën Connect Box that alerts emergency services and recovery services in the event of an incident.

‘Flair’ models also feature a programmable cruise control system with speed limiter, a head-up display and blind spot monitoring for enhanced safety.

New Citroën ë-SpaceTourer is powered by a 50kWh battery, connected to a 100kW (136hp) electric motor. Under WLTP testing, Citroën ë-SpaceTourer has an all-electric range of up to 143 miles on a single charge, meeting the needs of many business and family users alike.

With all versions supporting up to 100kW rapid charging, an 80% re-charge takes just 30 minutes. A full charge from a 7.4kW domestic Wallbox takes 7 hours and 30 minutes. For total peace-of-mind, the Lithium-ion battery pack specified in New Citroën ë-SpaceTourer benefits from an eight-year/100,000 mile warranty for up to 70% of battery capacity.
