CITROENBerlingo 2012 - 2015

　　The Berlingo was the Citroen version for the Peugeot Partner, but with a slightly different design.

　　While the MPV market was crashing, the French carmakers didn't want to give up so quickly. They found a way to cut the development and manufacturing costs by making an MPV based on an LCV. The recipe was followed by other carmakers such as Opel, Fiat, or Volkswagen.

　　In 2008, Citroen introduced the second generation for the Berlingo and refreshed-it in 2012 with a major facelift. The front grille featured two slats that converged into the Citroen's badge, named "double-chevron." In the upper side of the bumper, the designers installed a set of daytime running lights, which became mandatory according to 2012 regulations. In the rear, the vertically mounted taillights received clear lenses and a different look.

　　Inside, it was hard for anyone to complain about the car's roominess. Due to its high greenhouse, the designers could install higher seats and allowed enough legroom even for tall passengers. In the back, the carmaker installed three individual seats as an option, and all three of them could have been folded individually or completely removed if there was a need for a larger cargo area.

　　Under the hood, Citroen installed a new engine range with a similar 1.6-liter displacement. All of them were paired to a 5-speed manual. A 6-speed automatic was offered as an option for selected versions.
