    CITROËN BERLINGO NAMED ‘BEST LARGE CAR’ IN AUTOCAR ‘BRITAIN’S BEST CARS AWARDS’ 2020

    Citroën’s popular Berlingo Leisure Activity Vehicle (LAV) has added the ‘Best Large Car’ title to its ever-growing list of achievements in Autocar’s very first ‘Britain’s Best Cars Awards’.

Citroën’s popular Berlingo Leisure Activity Vehicle (LAV) has added the ‘Best Large Car’ title to its ever-growing list of achievements in Autocar’s very first ‘Britain’s Best Cars Awards’. The panel of expert judges described Citroën Berlingo as “the most practical, likeable new car we can think of” as it was praised for its exceptional versatility and spaciousness – the key criteria for this award category.

This latest accolade for Citroën Berlingo is even more impressive when you consider that ‘Best Large Car’ is one of only ten vehicle categories in the Autocar ‘Britain’s Best Cars Awards’.

Since its launch in 2018, the third-generation Berlingo has won multiple awards, including What Car? ‘MPV of the Year’ 2020 and ‘Best Medium Family Car’ in the Parkers ‘New Car Awards’ 2020.

Autocar’s ‘Britain’s Best Cars Awards’ have been designed to highlight the very best mainstream vehicles on the market. This year, the awards ceremony was a standalone online event, but there are plans for it to become part of the main Autocar Awards that will recommence in May 2021.

Autocar Editor, Mark Tisshaw, said: “A large crop of buyers will love the Berlingo’s no-fuss demeanour and extreme practicality. In its latest iteration, the Berlingo is made better by the new availability of Citroen’s excellent 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine or a choice of ultra-clean diesels. In some combinations you can have an eight-speed automatic gearbox, too."

“Citroen has taken the wise decision to equip top-end versions with all manner of life-enhancing equipment – low-speed automatic braking, head-up displays, climate control aircon, rear vision cameras and much more. A well-specified Berlingo is one of the most comfortable (both in seating and suspension quality) cars on the road.”

Citroën Berlingo offers class-leading interior space, five or seven-seats and impressive boot volumes (up to the parcel shelf) of between 775-litres on medium (M) and 1,050-litres on XL versions, alongside a low load sill and uniform shape to the load area.

Eurig Druce, Managing Director at Citroën UK, commented: “We are so proud to see Citroën Berlingo named ‘Best Large Car’ in the first year of the Autocar ‘Britain’s Best Cars Awards’ – particularly as Berlingo won through in one of just ten vehicle categories available in these new awards. All of our vehicles are designed with our customer’s needs at heart and Berlingo has always been a popular choice for active families, and that’s because of its comfortable interior, spacious layout and overall practicality.”

    We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
