Peugeot and Citroen are going head to head with two major new models, the Berlingo\/Partner and the Nemo\/Bipper.<\/p>\n<p>I list them like that because they are of course competing against each other with the same vehicles &#8211; all Peugeot and Citroen vans (and most Fiats) are the product of PSA, so the only difference is badging and sometimes engine options.<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, the new Berlingo-Partner is bigger than the vehicle it replaces &#8211; although the current model will continue to be sold as the Berlingo First and Partner Origin. It&#8217;s still a great no-frills, economical van and will no doubt continue to sell well, especially in these increasingly budget-concious times.<\/p>\n<p>The Bipper &#8211; Nemo is a smaller van, fitting between a hatchback like the 207 Van and the Berlingo.

All of these features no doubt contributed to it winning the 2008 Fleet World &#8216;Best New Van&#8217; Award and it should be a success, as should its Citroen-badged twin brother, the Citroen Nemo (see the similarities?):<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-149 aligncenter\" title=\"Citroen Nemo van\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/citroen-nemo-sm.jpg\" alt=\"Citroen Nemo van\" width=\"350\" height=\"216\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/citroen-nemo-sm.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/citroen-nemo-sm-300x185.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For more details on all of these new models, see the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fleetnews.co.uk\/news\/story\/?nID=47342\" target=\"_blank\">excellent round up on the Fleet News site<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s all change on the small van front this summer.
