Vans A2Z.com Verdict
Relay has come of age with this latest generation. The cab is well designed, engine choice is good, there’s a wide range of models available and the Ready to Run conversions are extensive to say the least.

The result of a long-standing joint-development deal between PSA Peugeot Citroën and Fiat, the current generation front-wheel drive Relay has been with us since the end of 2006.

Engine choice runs to three; two 2.2-litres and a 3.0-litre. The 2.2-litre can be had at either 100hp or 120hp while the 3-litre is capable of 160hp. Peak torque figures are 250Nm and 320Nm for the 2.2s and a whopping 400Nm for the big powerplant. Braking is taken care of by discs all-round and ABS comes as standard. Should the additional security of ESP be required, it’s an optional extra.

Current Relay’s cab is a revelation compared with that of its predecessor. There are storage areas everywhere, including two gloveboxes — one is lockable — and the driving position works well in tandem with the dash-mounted gearstick.

All Relays benefit from Citroën’s standard two-years/unlimited mileage or three-years/100,000 miles mechanical warranty. Service intervals are set up to 25,000 miles, dependent on the duty cycle.
