When the Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Rifter go head-to-head it’s basically the same clever van in two different outfits: the Berlingo is the pragmatic hero with cavernous loadspace, clever cubbies and a soft, comfortable ride, while the Rifter dresses up the same underpinnings with sharper looks, …

Citroen Berlingo

The Citroën Berlingo is a charming, practical MPV that blends everyday versatility with a comfy ride and clever storage tricks that make life easier for families and small businesses. It won’t star in a sports-car ad, but its sensible layout, enormous load flexibility and friendly demeanor mean it often wins on plain common sense — perfect for school runs, weekend escapes and the odd IKEA mission.

Comprei há 2 meses o Seat Arona novo DE 95 cv... ´Trata-se da versão base...
Estou muito contente com o mesmo...
Tem um ótima posição elevada da condução, é económico, tem uma bagageira com uma boa capacidade de arrumação...
Considero que este B Suv tem uma aparência bem desportiva e atraente...
Só tenho pena deste carro não ter instalados de fábrica os faróis dianteiros de nevoeiro, nem a câmara de ré acho que isto faz muita falta a nível da segurança da condução... Só a versão superior do carro é que traz instalada isto tudo...
