Positioned for entrepreneurs, SMEs, courier operators and delivery fleets, the new Peugeot Partner delivers a balance of efficiency, practicality, safety and connectivity in a compact, work-focused package engineered for South African conditions.
Continued expansion
The launch forms part of the brand’s continued expansion in the light commercial vehicle segment, as demand grows for versatile and cost-efficient business mobility solutions.
“The Peugeot Partner represents an important step in the growth of the Peugeot brand in South Africa,” said Moeketsi Mapogo, Brand Head: Pro One LCV at Stellantis South Africa.
“As we continue to expand in the light commercial vehicle market, businesses are under increasing pressure to do more with less, making affordable and dependable mobility essential.”
“The new Partner is designed to meet that need, combining low running costs, practical functionality and modern technology in a commercial vehicle built for everyday business demands.”
Efficient performance
Powering the Peugeot Partner is a 1.6-litre HDi diesel engine. This engine produces 68kW of power and 230Nm of torque through a five-speed manual transmission.
Strong low-speed pulling power supports urban delivery cycles and frequent stop-start operation. While fuel consumption is claimed to be a mere 5.1-litres/100km. Helping to reduce running costs for business users and fleet operators.
