Citroën
has long been a key player on the commercial vehicle
market. It has
built a reputation for innovative models, designed
to provide a precise
response to user requirements. By constantly
matching its range to
market trends, Citroën secured a 10.2% share of the
European LCV market
(26 countries) in 2005.
LCVs are important for the Marque, since
one Citroën in every five sold worldwide is a light
commercial vehicle,
and one light commercial in every ten sold in Europe
is a Citroën. The
market launch of the new Jumper therefore gives the
Marque a further
advantage in this segment.
With the new Jumper, Citroën is out to win market
share, building on
twelve years of market success with previous
versions.
The new range, which includes the latest high-tech
features developed
by the Marque, is structured to meet these
objectives.
The redesigned architecture of the new Jumper
expands the number of combinations possible in terms
of volume and payload.
It features:
- a wider choice of useful volumes: the
new Jumper combines four lengths with three
wheelbases and three body heights. The useful
loading volume ranges between 8 m3 and
17 m3, compared with a maximum of 14 m3
previously.
- gross vehicle weight of up to 4 tonnes: the
new
Jumper now tops the 3.5 tonne mark with a maximum
gross vehicle
weight of 4 tonnes (for a payload of two tonnes).
The new Jumper is one
of the few front-wheel drive LCVs to have a gross
vehicle weight of
over 3.5 tonnes. This increased capacity in terms
of payload gives
Citroën access to a new market segment.
- a wide diversity of models to satisfy the
requirements of each sector of activity to the
greatest extent
possible. The range comprises standard panel and
window vans, single
and double cab versions, and combi vans for
transporting people. Other
versions are pre-prepared for bodywork
conversions: chassis, bare
chassis and flatbed cabs.
The styling of the new Jumper is user-focused.
It suggests the many advantages linked to its
functional personality.
For example, the bumper features built-in sills that
make it easier to
clean the windscreen. At the same time, the layout
of the driving
position, its soundproofing and ergonomic design,
ensure that the cabin
satisfies the requirements of the most demanding
professionals. The
load sill has been lowered to make the loading area
even easier to
access.
The new Jumper features new diesel engines
adapted to each version. The
range is available with a choice of three engines:
the 2.2 HDi 100 (74
kW/100 bhp DIN), the 2.2 HDi 120 (88 kW/120 bhp DIN)
and the 3.0 HDi
160 (115 kW/157 bhp DIN). All three engines are
mated to manual
gearboxes, with six speeds in the case of the last
two.
The new Jumper boasts a broader range of
equipment
and a wide array of options rarely seen on the LCV
market, including a
heat-reflecting windscreen, automatic lights and
wipers, and rear
parking assistance with a colour camera.
The new Jumper has surefooted, precise road
manners. Vehicle safety is further reinforced
by ABS, fitted as standard, and ESP, optional
depending on the versions.
Moreover, superlative quality of design
makes this vehicle the most convincing of business
partners.
