The
CITROËN Jumper, a true sales success with nearly
800,000 units sold
since launch, has been renewed to enter into a new
era. The redesign of
the new model harnesses the finest in CITROËN
expertise. That same
expertise informs one of the broadest light commercial
vehicle ranges
on the market, comprising four complementary and
distinct vehicles:
Nemo, Berlingo, Jumpy and Jumper.
The new CITROËN Jumper is fully integrated in the
range with:
- resolutely
modern design focused on practicality in use. The
front end conveys
vitality and robustness through new headlamps
featuring LED daytime
running lights, a sharply styled bonnet and
protective bumper. The
styling of the new CITROËN Jumper is in touch with
its times and based
on the Brand identity. But above all, the upgraded
architecture and
ergonomics make the vehicle easier to use. Loading
is a cinch thanks to
one of the best load volume/exterior dimensions
ratios in the class.
The new CITROËN Jumper leads the category on load
width between the
wheel arches, at 1.42 m, and useful width of 1.87 m.
- class-leading
comfort. The driving position has been optimised
with seats with
variable damping control,armrests and lumbar
adjustment, while in-cabin
practicality is underscored by a dashboard-mounted
gear lever and an
extendable writing tablet. The new CITROËN Jumper is
also strong on
connectivity with the Connecting Box, including a
Bluetooth hands-free
kit and a USB socket, as well as a first-in-segment
5-inch colour
touchscreen for displaying the new navigation and
reversing camera
functions.
- safety-enhancing technologies. For more
peace of mind day to day, the new CITROËN Jumper is
available with
Intelligent Traction Control, Hill Descent Control,
programmable speed
limiter/cruise control, the Lane Departure Warning
System, and a tyre
pressure monitoring function.
- robust quality and
controlled running costs. The new CITROËN Jumper was
test driven over a
distance of more than four million kilometres to
ensure even greater
reliability. Running costs have also been reduced,
with a 15% reduction
in fuel consumption on the previous generation for
certain models. The
e-HDi 130 and e-HDi 50 versions are fitted with the
Stop&Start
system, cutting fuel consumption by 0.5 l/100 km in
urban driving.
These
qualities feature on all the versions of the new
CITROËN Jumper, from
the panel van to the combi, to meet the diverse needs
of professionals.
RESOLUTELY MODERN DESIGN

CLASS-LEADING COMFORT
Distinct living space
Particularly
close attention was paid to the interior of the new
CITROËN Jumper,
giving it more of a passenger-car feel while focusing
on practicality
and user-friendliness for professionals in their
day-to-day work –
making it a sort of “office on wheels”.
The new CITROËN Jumper cabin was designed to maximise
the comfort of each occupant and make their everyday
lives easier.
The
driver station is a living space unto itself and
extremely intuitive in
use. The high-set dashboard provides top-notch
driveability and
practicality. Each control and indicator falls
naturally to hand or is
easily visible,
including the inclining and extendable writing tablet,
ensuring that drivers always have instant access to
the
documents important to their work, and the gear lever,
ideally located in terms of ergonomics and the
management of cabin space.
Available
with up to ten storage compartments, the new CITROËN
Jumper targets
customers looking for efficiency and optimised
organisation. The
numerous compartments are ingeniously positioned
around the cabin,
including several cubbies, a key-locking glove box big
enough for a
laptop, compartments on the central console (cooled,
open or closing,
depending on the option), and two storage spaces under
the seats.
The
new CITROËN Jumper also features a huge overhead
storage rack above the
sun visors with a useful volume of 22 litres and
invisible from the
exterior.
The new CITROËN Jumper is standard fit with a
12V socket in the centre of the dashboard, perfectly
placed for hooking
up telephones and laptops.
The seats offer top-level
comfort and support, optimising working conditions.
They are also fit
with removable and height-adjustable headrests,
inclining seatbacks, an
armrest, and fore-and-aft and lumbar adjustment.
The
driver’s seat can be fitted with variable damping
control, adjustable
in line with the driver’s weight, from 40 kg to 130
kg.
Increasingly connected
The
new CITROËN Jumper is standard fit with the Connecting
Box, comprising
a USB socket and a Bluetooth hands-free kit. The
system is available
with audio-streaming technology so that drivers and
passengers can
listen to the music stored on their handsets without
having to plug
them in to the audio system, playing their favourite
songs with no fuss.
In
a first in the segment, the new CITROËN Jumper
features a 5-inch
touchscreen that can be equipped with the new
navigation and reversing
camera functions and used to control all the media
functions (radio,
telephone, onboard computer). Useful technology takes
on real meaning
in everyday use, with voice reading of text messages
for greater safety
and comfort.
TECHNOLOGIES FOR EVEN MORE
SAFETY
The
new CITROËN Jumper has been fit with several pieces of
equipment
previously unavailable in the category. As a true
working partner, the
new vehicle provides maximum safety in all
circumstances through the
following technologies:
- Intelligent Traction
Control, a system that improves traction on low-grip
surfaces such as
snow, ice and mud. The function detects low-grip
conditions that can
hinder the start-up and movement of the vehicle. In
these conditions,
the Intelligent Traction Control system overrides
the anti-slip
regulation function by transferring the driving
force to the wheel with
the best grip on the road surface to optimise
traction and maintain the
course of the vehicle. The function is activated via
a button on the
dashboard. It deactivates automatically at a speed
of over 30 km/h (the
indicator light remaining on) and reactivates
automatically when the
vehicle descends under the 30 km/h mark. To override
the function when
driving, the driver simply pushes on the button.
- Hill
Descent Control, an integral part of the Intelligent
Traction Control
system. This function makes going down inclines
easier, especially on
mud-covered or gravel tracks. It reduces the risk of
the vehicle
slipping or getting bogged down when accessing
building sites. The
driver maintains full control of the vehicle with
complete peace of
mind. The system activates via a dash-mounted button
on inclines of at
least 8%, helping to maintain a constant speed under
30 km/h and
deactivating when the driver accelerates to over
30km/h. To override
the function, the driver simply pushes on the
button.
- a
programmable speed limiter/cruise control system,
optional or standard,
that maintains (with no input from the accelerator
pedal) or limits
vehicle speed in line with the programmed speed,
regardless of incline.
Drivers can change vehicle speed by pressing on the
accelerator and/or
using the left-hand-side control under the steering
wheel.
- Lane
Departure Warning System (LDWS), standard-fit on
4.0-tonne vans,
optional on other versions. This system is linked to
the road
continuously via a camera located above the interior
rearview mirror.
If the driver inadvertently crosses a continuous or
broken lane marking
without using the indicator, a warning light
activates on the dashboard
accompanied by a sound alert.
- Tyre pressure monitoring
function, a “direct” system in which each wheel is
fitted with a
pressure sensor. In the event of a puncture or drop
in pressure, the
system informs the driver of the wheel in question.
- park
assist with a reversing camera. Available with an
optional overlay
function, this system activates automatically when
drivers shift into
reverse gear. A reversing camera fit in the third
stop lamp sends the
filmed image to the 5-inch touchscreen. The overlay
function makes
parking easier and more precise by displaying
different coloured lines
depending on the distance separating the rear bumper
from obstacles.
- a
camera-equipped theft prevention system,
automatically displaying the
rear of the vehicle on the touchscreen when the rear
doors are opened.
ROBUST QUALITY AND
CONTROLLED RUNNING COSTS
Top-level quality for
reliability and durability
The
new CITROËN Jumper boasts the top-level quality
professionals expect,
having been test driven over a distance of more than
four million
kilometres by specialised engineers.
The new model was put through specific tests
including:
- 30,000 km on poorly-surfaced roads, empty and
fully loaded, to test the body structure, comfort
and durability,
- 1,000
fording operations in 10 cm of water, to verify
sealing, along with
tests carried out in several centimetres of water in
a tunnel
projecting saltwater to validate corrosion
resistance,
- over 500 test cycles on low-grip tracks, to verify
roadholding,
- 500,000 door-closing tests, representing the most
intensive use over a 10-year period.
For even greater reliability and robustness, several
aspects of the new CITROËN Jumper have been
upgraded, ncluding:
- a new shock-absorber mount design,
- a new dashboard cowl for increased water
tightness,
- reinforced hinges, doors and body structure,
- redesigned injection system on the HDi 110, 130
and 150 engines,
- improved brake performance, durability and noise.
Controlled running costs
Mindful
of the budgets of professionals, the new CITROËN
Jumper consumes up to
15% less fuel than the previous model, depending on
the version. For
example, the L3H2 van with an HDi 130 engine and
6-speed automatic
gearbox consumes 7.4 l/100 km for the new model over a
combined cycle
compared.
CO2 emissions have also been reduced.
Depending
on the version, the e-HDi 130 and e-HDi 150 engines
fitted with
Stop&Start technology reduce fuel consumption by
0.5 l/100 over an
urban cycle and cut CO2 emissions by 5 to 6 grams
compared with
non-Stop&Start versions.
These efficient engines
generate savings not just on fuel consumption but on
maintenance costs,
too. The new CITROËN Jumper has one of the best
servicing intervals in
the category, at up to 48,000 km or two years. The new
CITROËN Jumper
ranks among the best in class in terms of total cost
of ownership.
The new CITROËN Jumper is available with six robust
and efficient diesel engines:
- the
HDi 110 (81 kW - 110 bhp DIN - 250 Nm at 1,750 rpm)
combining low fuel
consumption and comfort in use. This engine, mated
to a 6-speed manual
gearbox, is particularly well-adapted to urban use.
- the
HDi 130 (96 kW - 130 bhp DIN - 320 Nm at 1,800 rpm)
for an excellent
compromise between performance and fuel consumption
in mixed
open-road/city use. It is equipped with a 6-speed
manual gearbox. This
engine is also available in an e-HDi 130 version
with Stop&Start
technology, for low fuel consumption (6.6 l/100 km)
and CO2 emissions
(175 g/km).
- the HDi 150 (110 kW - 150 bhp DIN - 350 Nm
at 1,750 rpm) with an emphasis on power, torque and
acceleration. It is
mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox and available in
an e-HDi 150 version
with Stop&Start technology.
- the HDi 180 (130 kW -
177 bhp DIN - 400 Nm at 1,400 rpm) ideal for
high-volume versions and
loads requiring an extra dose of power. This engine
is equipped with a
6-speed manual gearbox.
Each of the engines
available on the new CITROËN Jumper was designed to
hold up robustly to
the toughest use, regardless of road and load
conditions.
