Citroën Relay: A Comprehensive Guide to Dimensions

12 September 2024

The Citroën Relay is one of the best-selling vans in the world thanks to its size and ease of adaptation to the needs of professionals. In this regard, Relay was first introduced in the 1980s, but dimensions and specifications have changed since the 2000s.

Due to several updates and redesigns over the years, the Citroën Relay dimensions reflect the current generation, which was launched in 2014 with the fourth-generation model. The van has evolved this year with a new electric option.

Exterior Dimensions of Citroën Relay

The Citroën Relay has been a popular choice among professionals across a wide range of sectors, from construction and logistics to delivery services. Its impressive versatility, spacious cargo area, and reliability make it an ideal solution for businesses looking for a robust and adaptable vehicle. With dimensions that can be easily customised to suit a variety of requirements, it consistently outperforms others van brands in terms of both practicality and performance.

The Relay is well-regarded for its fuel efficiency and durability, making it a cost-effective option for long-term use, allowing users to select the model that best fits their specific needs. Whether you’re transporting tools, equipment, or bulky goods, the Citroën Relay offers ample space and flexible storage solutions.

With its modern safety features and comfortable driving experience, the Citroën Relay ensures that both the driver and cargo arrive at their destination safely and efficiently. The van comes in three configurations with different sizes (medium, large and extra-large) and three roof heights (low, standard and high).

  • H1 exterior height = 2254 mm.
  • H2 exterior height = 2522 mm.
  • H3 exterior height = 2760 mm.
  • L2 exterior length = 5413 mm.
  • L3 exterior length = 5998 mm.
  • L4 exterior length = 6363 mm.

The Citroën Relay van features a wheelbase width of 1422 mm, allowing it to accommodate European pallets in both single and double configurations. This generous spacing ensures efficient loading and unloading operations.

Internal Dimensions of Citroën Relay

The French brand has taken standard dimensions for the interior of the van similar to those of other manufacturers. The Citroën Relay is available with internal loadspace lengths between 3210 mm and 4070 mm and a height that can also be configured:

  • L2 interior length = 3210 mm.
  • L3 interior length = 3705 mm.
  • L4 interior length = 4070 mm.
  • H1 internal height = 1662 mm.
  • H2 internal height = 1932 mm.
  • H3 internal height = 2172 mm.

The dimensions of the L2H1 will allow you to transport lengths of more than 3 metres. The interior height is not sufficient to stand upright. At only 1.66 metres, most professionals will have to bend down when standing in the cargo space.

If you need a van that allows you to move around easily indoors or carry heavy loads, the best options are the L4H3 and L3H3 configurations. The L1H1 and L2H2 versions are a good choice if you care about aspects such as a better driving experience, parking and fuel economy.

As part of the Stellantis Group’s van range, the Citroën Relay is also a sibling of other vans as the Peugeot Boxer, Fiat Ducato, and Vauxhall Movano. The brand has standard dimensions very similar to the Toyota Proace Max.
