Stellantis Pro One is at the centre of an unprecedented transformation in the world of Vans, and we were able to attend the incredible global launch of the 12 new models, which took place at the Balocco Circuit, Milan, covering all segments of Citroën, FIAT Professional, Opel, Peugeot and Vauxhall, the brands belonging to the automotive group. The “Six Brands, One Force” strategy brings to life a completely renewed range of Vans, in compact, mid-size and large segments. Among the highlights are the renewed Citroën Berlingo, Jumpy, Jumper, the new Fiat Professional Doblò, Scudo, Ducato, the Opel/Vauxhall Combo, Vivaro, Movano and the Peugeot Partner, Expert, Boxer. In addition, the brand-new Ram ProMaster EV is expected to make its debut at the end of 2023.

The main focus of this revolution is the priority given to “zero emissions“. The second generation of battery electric vehicles (BEV) has increased range across all models, offering up to 420 km without sacrificing performance. In addition, Stellantis will introduce the hydrogen fuel cell in the large Vans segment in 2024, a major advance in zero-emission technology.

At the heart of this renewal are the technological advances built into the Van range: renewed cockpits are presented, along with a new 10-inch infotainment system. In addition, 18 advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) have been updated to offer Level 2 autonomous driving. Connectivity is guaranteed at 100%, and the introduction of the e-PTO (electric Power Take Off) solution allows the traction battery to be used for conversion to electric.

With the aim of keeping commercial vehicle drivers and owners connected, Stellantis plans for 100% of new Vans to be connected by the end of 2023, with over-the-air updates from 2026. This will help achieve the ambitious target of €5 billion in connected services revenue, an important part of the Dare Forward 2030 strategic plan.

Technological advances also extend to hydrogen propulsion, with a second generation of hydrogen fuel cells scheduled for mid-2024, which will provide a record-breaking range in its segment. Technologies such as regenerative braking and the heat pump further optimise the efficiency of electric vehicles.

The renewed Van range puts the driver first, with improved user interfaces and advanced systems such as Dynamic Surround Vision, which uses exterior cameras to enhance visibility. Wireless connectivity and over-the-air updates keep drivers informed and allow fleet owners to optimise their operations.

Citroën

Citroën surprises us with three exciting additions to its commercial vehicle line-up: the Citroën Berlingo Van, the Citroën Jumpy and the Citroën Jumper. These models incorporate advanced features that raise comfort and technology to unprecedented levels.
