Citroen Berlingo van dimensions (2019-on)
The Citroen Berlingo is available in two body lengths: M and XL, the former being the standard size and the latter – rather unsurprisingly – a longer version.
All Citroen Berlingo models come with one sliding side door and two side-hinged rear doors. You can add an extra sliding door at extra cost to the long-wheelbase Berlingo XL models if you want added practicality.
There aren’t any differences in body heights, but with two different lengths available – M and XL – the overall capacities vary between models.
The extra length for the XL model comes from a slightly longer wheelbase and longer rear overhang, freeing up extra length for carrying longer items in the load area.
For the Berlingo M, there’s a maximum load length of 1,810mm, while the XL offers 2,160mm. If you opt for the Extenso Cab for the interior, spaces is freed up beneath the passenger seats for carrying longer items.
For full exterior dimensions, see the table below:

With two body lengths available, the only differences in exterior dimensions for the Berlingo come in its length.
Citroen Berlingo load area dimensions and volume
| Citroen Berlingo size | Berlingo M | Berlingo XL |
| Maximum load length (mm) | 1,817 | 2,167 |
| Maximum load height (mm) | 1,236 | 1,243 |

Going for the Extenso Cab in the front opens up some extra load length for fitting in longer items, while an optional flap in the roof will allow you to also carry longer items without the need to leave the rear doors open and lash them together.
Citroen sells the Berlingo with several payloads available, depending on the particular model you go for, and with bold claims for being able to carry more than all its rivals.
Citroen Berlingo payload
The maximum payload of each model is indicated in the car’s full name, with 650, 950, and 1000 models, and these all vary depending on the trim level and the engine fitted, so make sure you study the brochure carefully when picking what you need, as some engines and trims come in with certain maximum payloads, while other do not.
It’s also variable depending on the body length, too, as all Berlingo XL models come with 950kg maximum payload. The Berlingo M varies between 650-, 950- and 1000kg, so check the specs.

Citroen Berlingo towing capacity
The Berlingo will tow between 680-750kg unbraked depending on the version. Some will manage up to 1,200kg braked. This varies between models so check the specs depending on your requirements.
