Citroën UK has announced new offers across its light commercial vehicle (LCV) range that bring electric vans in line with diesel equivalents on monthly cost, making it easier than ever for small businesses to make the switch to electric.
Available across key models including ë‑Berlingo Van and ë‑Dispatch, the new offers deliver price parity on monthly payments through a range of funding solutions, including Conditional Sale, Finance Lease and Business Contract Hire via Stellantis Financial Services.
The move reinforces Citroën’s long-standing commitment to SME customers, removing one of the biggest barriers to electrification and enabling businesses to transition without increasing their monthly outgoings.
For SMEs and sole traders, managing cash flow is critical. By aligning monthly payments between electric and diesel vans, Citroën is ensuring that going electric is now a practical and financially viable choice, not just a long-term aspiration.
Customers can now:
- Switch to electric with no increase in monthly payments
- Benefit immediately from lower running costs
- Reduce exposure to fluctuating fuel prices
- Access clean air zones without additional charges
While monthly costs are now aligned, electric vans continue to offer clear financial advantages for small businesses:
- Lower energy costs, particularly when charging overnight
- Reduced servicing and maintenance requirements
- Potential savings through government incentives and local schemes
- Improved total cost of ownership over the vehicle lifecycle
Citroën has built its reputation as a trusted partner to small businesses, and its electric van range continues that tradition - combining practicality, comfort and versatility with zero-emissions capability.
SME customers benefit from:
- Simple, flexible finance solutions tailored to small business needs
- Access to Citroën’s nationwide LCV specialist network
- Proven body conversion and business adaptation options
- Vans designed with comfort and ease of use at their core
Greg Taylor, Citroën UK Managing Director, said: “Small businesses are at the heart of the Citroën brand, and we understand that cost is the deciding factor for many when considering electric. By bringing electric vans in line with diesel on monthly price, we’re making electrification more accessible and realistic for SMEs. Combined with lower running costs, it means going electric now makes strong business sense.”
The Citroën Berlingo Van is proudly built in the UK at the Ellesmere Port plant, reinforcing the group’s commitment to British manufacturing. The site exclusively produces electric vehicles, it plays a key role in supporting Citroën’s electrification strategy while continuing to deliver the practicality, reliability and versatility that have made the Berlingo Van a favourite among UK business customers.
With electric and diesel vans now aligned on monthly cost, Citroën is helping SMEs take the next step towards electrification - combining affordability, practicality and long-term savings.
