Citroën welcomes the UK government’s announcement of continued funding for the New Zero Emissions Van Grant (ZEVG), saving customers up to £5,000 off the price of a new Citroën electric van. New ë-C3 Van, ë-Berlingo Van, ë-Dispatch and ë-Relay are all eligible for the grant.
Greg Taylor, Managing Director, Citroën UK, said: “We’re encouraged to see the government increasing its support for the shift to electric vehicles in the light commercial vehicle segment, making going electric more accessible. Ongoing backing for the Zero Emissions Van Grant plays an important role in helping businesses of all sizes feel reassured as they transition to fully electric fleets and we are proud to offer four electric vehicles eligible for the grant, providing greater choice and accessibility for our customers.”
The ZEVG provides significant upfront savings on the purchase price of new electric vans and is automatically applied by retailers at the point of sale. Grant will continue until at least the end of the 2026/2027 financial year.
‘Small’ vans (those with gross vehicle weight of less than 2.5 tonnes) are eligible for 35% off the purchase price, up to a maximum of £2,500. This includes ë-C3 van which starts from £19,937 OTR MRRP (after PiVG) and the Citroën ë-Berlingo, which is manufactured in the UK at Ellesmere Port and is available with Advanced Comfort® seats. Prices start from £27,929.17 OTR after ZEVG (exc. VAT).
‘Large’ vans (those with a gross vehicle weight between 2.5 to 4.25 tonnes) are also eligible for 35% off the purchase price, up to a maximum of £5,000. This includes the Citroën ë-Dispatch, which delivers up to 219 miles of range (WLTP) and up to 6.6m³ of load space, with prices starting from £37,684.17 OTR after ZEVG (exc. VAT).
The ë-Relay also qualifies for the full £5,000 grant, with prices starting from £45,974.17 OTR after ZEVG (exc. VAT). The largest model in Citroën’s LCV line-up, it provides up to 263 miles of range (WLTP) and 150kW rapid charging capability from 5–80% in just 55 minutes.
When purchasing a Citroën electric van, sole trader and SME customers can also take advantage of a free home EV charger and standard residential installation worth up to £1,050 (inc. VAT) through Free2move Charge, provided by Octopus Energy.*
Citroën was also the first manufacturer to gain approval for its passenger vehicles for the UK Government Electric Car Grant. New ë-C3, New ë-C3 Aircross, New ë-C4, New ë-C4 X, New ë-C5 Aircross and ë-Berlingo (M1) are all eligible for the £1,500 grant. Thanks to Citroën’s accessible pricing structure, this means that in total, 10 Citroën vehicles are eligible for UK Government support, demonstrating Citroën’s commitment to making the transition to electric vehicles accessible and affordable.
