Peugeot Rifter Long: modularity and cargo space to a new level

Peugeot Rifter Long is the new version of this range of versatile vehicles. Designed to offer resilience and durability with the looks and performance of an SUV

After climbing to the top positions in its segment, Peugeot Rifter completes its range with the Long version, 35 cm longer and with a more spacious cabin that lets you combine leisure and work activities.

Built in Vigo on the EMP2 platform, Peugeot enters the world of camper vehicles thanks to Tinkervan, a company specialised in converting a conventional passenger car into a camperised vehicle.

Peugeot Rifter Long: performance

Exterior design

Its integration into the SUV fashion stands out aesthetically. It features an “adventurous” front end which, together with a raised bonnet and side mouldings, allows it to tackle difficult terrain.

Likewise, certain traits of a compact MPV can also be seen, such as modularity, a low loading floor or its wide tailgate with an opening rear window, which increases the boot capacity.

Another great advantage is discretion. Seen from outside, with the roof folded down, few signs would suggest that the Peugeot Rifter Long is a fully equipped camper inside.

Interior design

Peugeot Rifter Long features in its interior quality in terms of performance, ergonomics and comfort. At the same time, it ensures ample cabin space to accommodate up to 7 passengers.

Equally, it incorporates Peugeot i-Cockpit, a benchmark thanks to its steering wheel with two flat zones, which provides a better grip and manoeuvrability. Its 8″ touchscreen is easy to reach with hand and eye thanks to the raised instrument cluster.

The interior space is maximised by its modularity. Its three rows of removable seats are designed both to ensure optimal passenger comfort and to leave the floor completely flat when needed.

Driver assistance and driving systems

The new Peugeot Rifter Long incorporates the latest advances in driving systems and equipment. For example, it includes an electric parking brake system and active cruise control.

Likewise, it incorporates other elements such as Active Safety Brake, lane change warning, speed limit recognition and the 3D navigation system Peugeot Connect.

This vehicle is also designed for adventurers. Its Michelin Latitude Tour Mud & Snow tyres are complemented by the combined work of Hill Assist Descent Control, which maintains an appropriate speed on steep slopes.

Camper features

Peugeot Rifter Long is a fully equipped camper, thanks to the joint work of the French company and the Spanish firm Tinkervan, specialists in converting conventional vehicles into campers.

The joint work is evident when, in a matter of minutes, it goes from being a 5-seat passenger car to a camper equipped to survive in nature, thanks to its living spaces such as a bedroom in the boot or a lounge with a table and chairs.

Finally, it includes features for everyday living, such as a food fridge and autonomy for electricity and heating, thanks to the auxiliary battery with a 12V to 230V inverter.

The new Peugeot Rifter Long will go on sale in our country at the end of this March with a starting price of 16,900 euros.
