The Citroën Berlingo is a mini MPV produced by the French manufacturer Citroën since 1996.
The Berlingo uses the same chassis, and indeed looks very similar, to its PSA Group stablemate the Partner. It was launched in 1996, and a revised version featuring a redesigned interior and front end was released in 2003. The passenger car version is named Multispace, and sells well in several European countries due to its practicality and comparatively low pricing.
A battery-powered version of the van was available. It has a 162 volt Saft NiCd battery, a 28 kiloWatt Leroy Somer motor and has a maximum speed of 95 kilometres per hour (59 mph), with a maximum range of 95 kilometres (59 mi) in typical driving. Production of this version stopped in September 2005.Engines

Berlingo concept cars
When the Berlingo was first shown at the Mondial de l'Automobile in 1996, a set of three concept cars was also presented:
- Berlingo Coupé de Plage
- Berlingo Berline Bulle
- Berlingo Grand Large
The Berline Bulle was an interesting concept of a very roomy small car which could be considered as a precursor for the C3. Only one of these concepts was actually developed, the Grand Large version, which gave birth to the present Multispace.[ Visit the complete Wikipedia entry for Citroën Berlingo ]
