Citroen Relay Cars
The Citroën Relay is a versatile and reliable commercial van that has earned a strong reputation in New Zealand for its practicality and robust performance. Known internationally as the Peugeot Boxer or Fiat Ducato’s sibling, the Relay offers a wide range of configurations tailored to suit various business needs, from urban deliveries to tradespeople requiring spacious cargo capacity.
Designed with versatility in mind, the Citroën Relay comes in multiple lengths and roof heights, making it well-suited for navigating New Zealand’s diverse road conditions — from tight city streets in Auckland and Wellington to more rugged rural areas and unsealed roads common in many regions. The vehicle's high driving position provides excellent visibility, enhancing safety on narrow or winding routes frequently encountered around the country.
Under the bonnet, the Relay typically features efficient turbo diesel engines known for their balance of power and fuel economy, which is particularly important given New Zealand’s fuel prices and longer-distance highway drives. These engines deliver sufficient torque for carrying heavy loads without compromising fuel efficiency, an essential feature when transporting goods between cities like Christchurch and Dunedin or servicing remote areas.
The cabin layout is designed for driver comfort during extended hours on the road. Ergonomic seating, user-friendly controls, and ample storage spaces cater well to professional drivers. Additionally, modern versions include features such as air conditioning, touchscreen infotainment systems with smartphone integration, and advanced safety technologies like stability control and hill start assist — useful aids on New Zealand’s often hilly terrain.
Citroën’s after-sales service network extends across major centers in New Zealand, ensuring parts availability and support wherever your business may take you. Overall, the Citroën Relay remains a dependable choice for Kiwis seeking a commercial vehicle that balances capability with comfort in local driving environments.
