Peugeot Expert 2016– car dimensions: 4959 mm long, 1920 mm wide and 1895 mm high. Braked towing is 2,500 kg.
Base models get cruise control with speed limiter and a basic DAB radio with Bluetooth. Higher grades add air conditioning, a 7-inch touchscreen with smartphone mirroring for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, rear parking sensors, and options for front sensors plus a reversing camera. Driver aids like Active Safety Brake, lane departure warning and blind spot monitoring are available on packs or higher trims. The cab feels functional with good storage but a low seat and high dash limit forward view.
The Standard panel van offers 5.3 cubic metres of load volume with a floor length of 2512 mm, width of 1628 mm and height of 1397 mm. Moduwork load-through bulkhead on most grades extends length to 3674 mm and volume to 5.8 cubic metres for longer items. Twin side doors and a full bulkhead are standard.
Braked towing reaches 2500 kg on stronger engines with unbraked at 750 kg across the range. Payload peaks near 1450 kg depending on engine and length, with higher ratings using reinforced rear suspension. The van suits daily work with solid load capacity and optional tow bar prep for trailer use.
The cabin offers a high seating position with ergonomic 6-way driver's seat including lumbar support and armrest as standard. Dual passenger bench provides underseat storage and Moduwork load-through on higher grades. Manual air conditioning with chilled glovebox is standard, along with laminated acoustic windshield for reduced noise. Higher trims add heated driver's seat, heated leather steering wheel, dual-zone climate and massage function. Plenty of storage spaces and digital instruments on later models make daily use practical, though the cab can feel somewhat cramped with a high dashboard.
BlueHDi diesels deliver class-leading fuel economy from 5.1 l/100 km.
Service interval every 25,000 miles or two years.
Five-star Euro NCAP rating for the generation.
Standard safety includes ABS, ESC, hill start assist, driver and passenger airbags, and later AEB with lane keep and attention alert.
Three-year/100,000-mile warranty.
Fuel economy stands out with BlueHDi engines achieving best-in-class figures around 5.1-5.4 l/100 km on early models and WLTP ranges up to 45 mpg later. A large AdBlue tank supports long ranges between fills. Real-world mixed driving typically returns high 30s to low 40s mpg depending on load and conditions.
Servicing is straightforward with long intervals of 25,000 miles or two years. The three-year warranty covers unlimited mileage for the first two years then up to 100,000 miles total. Parts availability benefits from the shared Stellantis network.
Safety starts with a five-star Euro NCAP result from the reinforced structure and base platform. Standard kit covers ABS with EBD, ESC, hill start, dual airbags and automatic unlocking on crash. Higher grades and later models add advanced emergency braking, lane keeping, speed assistance, high-beam assist and driver attention alert. Van-specific assessments later rated it Gold or four stars for active systems.
Keeping the van involves routine checks on the diesel particulate filter and AdBlue. The practical Moduwork bulkhead and load restraints help maintain cargo security over time. Overall running costs remain competitive thanks to efficiency and extended service periods.
