Street-Camping Chic

The Citroen Holidays looks like a practical holiday home with a sense of style rather than a bland work van — long, boxy proportions (4,981 mm long, 2,010 mm wide, 1,990 mm high) give it presence on the road and plenty of visual cargo space. The high roof and bus-like silhouette signal utility first, but subtle design cues keep it from feeling utilitarian-only. At nearly five metres and a solid curb weight of 2,235 kg it stands out in traffic and announces its intentions: long trips, lots of kit, comfortable arrival.

Cabin Comfort That Gets the Job Done

The Holidays is laid out for straightforward usability with seating for four and five doors for easy access, prioritising robustness and comfort over luxury trimmings. Materials and controls aim for longevity and clear ergonomics, so long journeys stay comfortable without fragile niceties. The seating configuration and simple switchgear suit a family or a touring couple who want ease of use rather than boutique finishes.

Room to Live and Haul

With a payload of 865 kg the Holidays can carry people, camping gear and a weekend’s worth of extras without drama, and its almost five-metre length creates usable volume that translates into real luggage space. The 70-litre fuel tank also helps with range between stops, useful on long motorway runs or remote touring routes. In everyday terms this means fewer frantic packing decisions and fewer fuel stops on a long holiday drive.

Comfort-Focused Driving, Not a Sports Car

Front-wheel drive and generous torque — 370 Nm in the lower-output variant and 400 Nm in the stronger unit — give the Holidays a relaxed, steady pace suited to loaded touring rather than spirited cornering. The top speed is electronically tailored to around 170 km/h, which is more than adequate for highway stretches but the vehicle’s bulk shows in body roll and slower turn-in. The 180 hp automatic will feel more composed during overtakes and on gradients; the 150 hp manual keeps things simple and can be marginally more engaging for drivers who like to row their own gears.

Real-World Economy and How Far It Goes

Fuel use is quoted at 8.1 L/100 km for the 150 hp manual and 7.9 L/100 km for the 180 hp automatic; on the 70-litre tank that equates to a theoretical 860–890 km between fills, though real-world range will fall with heavy loads, passengers and frequent town driving. CO2 sits in the low 200s g/km (around 208–211 g/km), reflecting the vehicle’s size and diesel drivetrain, and contributes to its G efficiency classification. For holiday use the figures mean long legs and fewer refuelling stops, but higher running emissions than smaller alternatives.

Tech That Helps the Holiday Go Smoothly

As a 2025 model the Holidays is expected to offer modern driver assistance and infotainment features, but equipment levels can vary so buyers should check trim sheets for adaptive cruise, lane-keeping and parking aids that make large-vehicle driving easier. The infotainment should provide smartphone integration and navigation suited to planning routes and campsites, essential when covering long distances. Practical touches like clear menus and physical controls matter more on tour than flashy screens, because ease of use keeps focus on the road.

Who Should Be Packing Their Bags?

The Citroen Holidays is aimed at families, couples and outdoor enthusiasts who prioritise space, payload and long-distance comfort over urban manoeuvrability or sporting dynamics; its bus-like size and 4-seat layout make it ideal for trips with gear rather than daily city shuttles. Buyers can choose between two diesel-focused versions: a 2.2-litre 150 hp manual (8.1 L/100 km) or a 2.2-litre 180 hp automatic (7.9 L/100 km), so there is a straightforward choice between simplicity and extra power. Those after a practical, long-range touring vehicle that carries people and kit with ease will find it a sensible, no-nonsense option.
