Citroën bus/minibus
Citroën Minibuses & Passenger Vehicles
Citroën's UK passenger-carrying range spans the nine-seat SpaceTourer and fully electric ë-SpaceTourer, while specialist converters also offer larger Relay-based minibuses for schools, charities, care providers and community transport operators.
Citroën SpaceTourer
The diesel SpaceTourer sits at the car-like end of Citroën's passenger range, combining van-derived interior space with up to nine seats. It suits large families, hotels, private-hire operators and organisations needing considerably more passenger capacity than a conventional MPV without moving into a full-size minibus.

Powertrain: 2.0 Diesel, 180 hp, 8-speed automatic
Seats: Up to 9
Typical Licence: B
Body Sizes: M / XL
Length: c.4,981 mm (M) / c.5,331 mm (XL)
Width: c.1,920 mm excluding mirrors
Height: c.1,890 mm

Citroën ë-SpaceTourer
The ë-SpaceTourer uses the same versatile passenger-focused body as the diesel model but replaces the combustion engine with a 136 hp electric drivetrain. With up to nine seats and a WLTP range of more than 200 miles, it is particularly suited to family, hotel, shuttle and urban passenger work where regular charging is available.

Powertrain: Electric, 136 hp
Battery: 75 kWh
Range: Up to 216 miles WLTP

Citroën Relay Minibus
Relay-based minibuses are produced by specialist converters rather than forming one fixed factory Citroën specification. UK conversions commonly offer up to 17 seats and can be configured for schools, community transport, care providers and wheelchair-accessible work. Equipment, seating layout, weight and accessibility therefore vary considerably between conversions.

Typical Engine: 2.2 BlueHDi, conversion dependent
Seats: Up to 17

Citroën ë-Relay — base vehicle shown. Minibus appearance and specification vary by converter.
Citroën ë-Relay Minibus
The ë-Relay provides a fully electric version of Citroën's large-van platform and can be used by specialist converters as the basis for zero-emission minibus, shuttle and accessible passenger-transport applications. Current UK ë-Relay models use a large 110 kWh battery and are available in conversion-friendly body styles, although final seating capacity, weight and accessibility equipment depend on the individual conversion.

Important InformationPrices, specifications, dimensions, seating capacities, weights, range, power outputs and equipment are based primarily on information published by vehicle manufacturers and their official UK representatives. Specifications can vary by trim, body length, configuration, conversion, model year and individual vehicle. Where a passenger vehicle is produced or modified by a third-party converter, specifications and pricing may vary substantially between suppliers.Prices shown are UK prices where available and are intended as a guide. Where an official UK list price is unavailable, pricing may be shown as approximate or POA. Prices can change and may exclude optional equipment, conversions, delivery charges or other operator-specific costs.Licence categories shown are a general guide only. Individual driving entitlement can vary according to passenger-seat count, vehicle weight, vehicle length, licence issue date, grandfather rights, Section 19 operation and other exemptions. Always check the vehicle's plated specification and your own driving-licence entitlement before driving.Electric range, charging and energy-consumption figures are manufacturer or official test figures, including WLTP figures where applicable. Real-world results will vary with passenger load, weather, temperature, speed, route, driving style and operating conditions. Fuel-consumption figures should likewise be treated as indicative rather than a guarantee of real-world performance.Specifications are checked against the latest information reasonably available to The New Yardstick at the time of publication or update. Manufacturers may alter specifications, pricing or model availability without notice.Image Credits: Vehicle and product photography remains the property of the respective manufacturers, converters or copyright holders unless otherwise stated.
