PEUGEOT ANNOUNCES NEW ‘PROFESSIONAL PLUS’ TRIM LEVEL FOR PARTNER & E-PARTNER

PEUGEOT has introduced PROFESSIONAL PLUS as the new mid-range trim level for PARTNER and E-PARTNER, offering an appealing alternative to entry-level PROFESSIONAL and top-spec ASPHALT that brings increased choice, enhanced connectivity and practicality for drivers.

As well as offering greater choice within the range, the addition of the PROFESSIONAL PLUS trim brings enhanced connectivity and practicality for drivers with upgraded infotainment over the PROFESSIONAL trim, and the addition of a bench seat with a load-through bulkhead.

PARTNER was the UK’s best-selling compact van of 2024, while the new E-PARTNER was the UK’s favourite compact electric van. This contributed to a strong sales performance for PEUGEOT in the e-LCV market, with the brand more than doubling sales across the year.

PROFESSIONAL PLUS brings with it an enhanced multimedia system, replacing the previous smartphone station, and providing better infotainment for drivers. This includes the innovative PEUGEOT i-Cockpit®, featuring a new 10-inch HD touchscreen  and a 10-inch digital instrument cluster to display key driving information. In addition, the single passenger and solid bulkhead are replaced by a three-seat bench seat with a load-through bulkhead, offering greater practicality. There is also an electric park brake for extra ease of use.

As standard, the new PARTNER and E-PARTNER are equipped with more alluring design features such as an updated front end with a new radiator grille featuring the PEUGEOT shield at its centre. In addition, new headlights featuring the brand’s iconic three-claw light signature, electrically adjustable and heated door mirrors, as well as audio controls mounted on the steering wheel are included as standard.

The PARTNER and E-PARTNER also benefit from a full range of driving aids as standard, including driver tiredness warning, road sign recognition and automatic emergency braking.

The E-PARTNER is powered by an electric motor producing 136hp (100kW) and 270Nm of torque, coupled with a 52kWh* battery. Thanks to improvements in the vehicle's overall efficiency, the E-PARTNER offers an increased range of up to 213 miles (WLTP). The underfloor installation of the batteries ensures no compromise in load volume. The E-PARTNER’s volume is up to 4.4m³, while the payload of 781kg is a benchmark in the segment.

The PEUGEOT E-PARTNER is available in two sizes: Standard (4.40m) with a standard passenger compartment (up to 3 seats) or Long (4.75m), available with a standard or extended passenger compartment (up to 5 seats).

PEUGEOT also offers a wide range of PARTNERs equipped with a 100hp or 130hp BlueHDi diesel engine. The former is paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox, while the latter is combined exclusively with an EAT8 8-speed automatic transmission.

The 100hp panel van has a maximum payload capacity of 982kg with a towing capability of up to 1,050kg on the long-wheelbase version. The crew van has amaximum payload capacity of 840kg with a towing capability of 750kg. The 130hp panel van has a maximum payload capacity of 840kg and a towing capability of 1,000kg.
