Citroën Jumpy

The Citroën Jumpy (badged Citroën Dispatch in some countries) is a light commercial van jointly developed by FCA Italy and PSA Group (currently Stellantis), and mainly manufactured by Sevel, a joint venture between the two companies since 1994. The Jumpy was also sold as the Peugeot Expert and Fiat Scudo beginning in 1995.

All three models were facelifted in March 2004 before being replaced by new, second-generation models in 2007. The redesigned models again shared the same design and engineering, with subtle trim changes between each brand. The second generation received a small facelift in February 2012 and from July 2013, Toyota began sales of a rebadged version called the Toyota Proace.

In December 2015, Citroën, Peugeot and Toyota unveiled their new generation of these vehicles in people carrying-specifications called the Citroën SpaceTourer and Peugeot Traveller, with Toyota retaining the Proace name. The commercial versions premiered later, retaining the Peugeot Expert and Citroën Jumpy names.

In July 2016, the Fiat Scudo was replaced by a second generation of the Fiat Talento, a rebadged Renault Trafic. From the 2019 model year, the Jumpy has been rebadged as the Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro, replacing the previous Vivaro model, which, from 1997 to 2018, had been based on the Renault Trafic. From the 2022 model year, the Jumpy has also been rebadged as the Fiat Scudo.

First generation (1994)
Citroën released the first-generation Jumpy in June 1994, naming the model "Dispatch" in English-speaking markets. Peugeot and Fiat followed with their rebadged models in July 1995 and February 1996 respectively. The vans differ little technically and visually, an example of badge engineering.

They share mechanicals and body structure with the Sevel Nord Eurovans minivans: the Citroën Evasion (Synergie), Fiat Ulysse, Lancia Zeta, and Peugeot 806. The engines available throughout the models do differ, with the Fiat getting its own engines distinct from those fitted to the Citroën and Peugeot. The Fiat Scudo replaced the first generation of the Fiat Talento.

Facelift
The model received a facelift in 2004, which changed most of the front end including the bumper and bonnet; for the first time, the headlamps were combined with the indicators rather than being a separate set of lights.

Second generation (G9; 2006)
The second generation offered increased cargo space and more body styles over the previous generation. It was launched in November 2006, with deliveries beginning in principal markets in January 2007. The Citroën is available in 90 bhp, 120 bhp and 136 bhp versions with the option of four diesel engines or one petrol engine.

The Peugeot Expert II was launched in January 2007, with the addition of a people carrier model, the Tepee. The PSA/Fiat joint venture ended in March 2016.

Facelift
The model received a slight facelift in February 2012, which changed the grille and front bumper. From July 2013, Toyota began sales of a rebadged version called Toyota Proace.

Third generation (K0; 2016)
At the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, Citroën, Peugeot and Toyota revealed their latest generation of their respective vans. With this new generation the vans became more contemporary, and the Citroën and Peugeot models gained new names for the passenger versions: Citroën SpaceTourer and Peugeot Traveller. Toyota partially retained the Proace name, calling their version Proace Verso.

Commercial variants have been released in March 2016, under the Citroën Jumpy, Peugeot Expert and Toyota Proace names.

In light of the PSA Group takeover of Opel/Vauxhall in March 2017, Renault gave formal notice of cessation of the agreement to be able to produce the then-current Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro derivative model, based on the Renault Trafic, under license. In 2019, Opel/Vauxhall switched to the PSA van platform for the Vivaro.

The Fiat Scudo and Ulysse nameplates were revived in 2022 using the PSA van platform, replacing the also Renault Trafic-based Talento.

In January 2022, Stellantis stopped marketing the internal combustion versions of its passenger vans in Europe (Switzerland and Balkan countries excepted). This decision is mainly motivated by a decision to reduce the average emissions of vehicles marketed by the company in Europe in accordance with the CAFE (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) regulations set up by the European Union. As a result, the SpaceTourer, Traveller and Zafira Life are now only offered in their 100% electric and hydrogen versions. Panel van models are not affected by this change, nor are Toyota-badged models, as the Japanese manufacturer is in line with the objectives of the CAFE regulations.

Production
Since 2017, both Citroën Jumpy and Peugeot Expert are assembled as CKD in Montevideo, Uruguay. As of October 2019, Nordex S.A. has produced 13,000 units, with most of them being exported to Brazil and Argentina.

In March 2018, PSA started the production of the Peugeot Expert and Citroën Jumpy in its Russian plant, in Kaluga. The next month began the production of the Traveller and SpaceTourer in the same factory. In December 2019, the Opel Zafira Life joined them on Kaluga assembly lines, followed by the Vivaro a few months later.

In April 2018, PSA announced that the Luton plant would begin production of the third generation Jumpy from the beginning of 2019, which would also be badged as the Opel/Vauxhall Zafira Life/Vivaro Life/Vivaro to replace the Trafic-based Vivaro.

In February 2022, Stellantis began exporting part of the production of the Russian plant in Kaluga to Western Europe, where Citroën, Peugeot, and Opel models are manufactured. In March 2022, Stellantis halted exports from Russia following Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, putting an end to the short-lived export program from Kaluga.

GS
In October 2022, the Vauxhall Vivaro received a sporty GS trim option alongside a more powerful diesel engine.

Electric versions
Electric versions are badged and sold by multiple Stellantis-owned brands as well as Toyota; they all share a common traction motor with the smaller Citroën e-Berlingo and its rebadged siblings, which has an output of 100 kW with 260 Nm torque; the motor is also used for battery-electric PSA/Stellantis passenger cars such as the Peugeot e-208. While the e-Berlingo is fitted with a 50 kW-hr battery, the e-Jumpy (and its rebadged cousins) also offer a larger 75 kW-hr battery as an option. Quoted maximum driving range changes from 144 mi under the WLTP cycle with the smaller battery to 205 mi (WLTP) with the larger 75 kW-hr battery. The vans are fitted with a 7.4 kW (AC) charger as standard, and an 11 kW (AC) charger is available as an option.

Peugeot e-Expert/e-Traveller
In 2019, Peugeot introduced an electric version of their Expert van called e-Expert which shares the same platform as the Vivaro-e. They later introduced an electric variant of the passenger Traveller called e-Traveller in June 2020.

Compared to the conventional diesel versions, there are some cosmetic changes such as blanked-off grille, instrument cluster which includes a battery charge-level gauge and new graphics for it infotainment system.

Citroën ë-Jumpy/ë-Dispatch/ë-SpaceTourer
The Citroën ë-Jumpy (ë-Dispatch) is largely similar to the Peugeot e-Expert cargo van, while the Citroën ë-SpaceTourer is similar to the Peugeot e-Traveller passenger van.

Opel Vivaro-e/Zafira-e Life
In April 2020, Opel revealed the all-electric Vivaro-e. The Vivaro-e is available in three lengths and offers a payload capacity of up to 1,275 kg (2,811 lbs). In the UK, the vehicle is sold under the Vauxhall brand.

The passenger model is called the Opel Zafira-e Life.

On 18 May 2021, Opel revealed the Vivaro-e Hydrogen. This new version has a payload of 1100 kg (compared to 1200 kg for the Vivaro-e and 1400 kg for the Vivaro). The Vivaro-e Hydrogen combines a 45 kW fuel cell with a 10.5 kW lithium-ion battery. The hydrogen storage tanks are supplied by Symbio, a joint venture between Michelin and Faurecia. Peugeot then presented its e-Expert Hydrogen. These vans are manufactured at the Valenciennes plant and converted to hydrogen at the former Opel plant in Rüsselsheim.

Toyota Proace Electric
The Proace Electric, available in passenger (Verso) and cargo versions, is a Toyota-badged twin of the electric vans from Groupe PSA described above. The Proace Electric is the first all-electric passenger vehicle offered under the Toyota brand in Europe.

Fiat E-Scudo/E-Ulysse
In March 2022, Fiat unveiled the E-Ulysse, a battery electric derivative of its passenger van. The cargo version is called the E-Scudo.

Hydrogen
On May 18, 2021, Opel presented the Vivaro-e Hydrogen. This version has a payload of 1100 kg (contrary to 1200 kg for the electric version and 1400 kg for the combustion version). The Vivaro-e Hydrogen combines a 45 kW fuel cell with a 10.5 kW lithium-ion battery. The hydrogen cylinders are supplied by Symbio, a joint venture between Michelin and Faurecia. Peugeot presented its e-Expert Hydrogen a few days later and Citroën its ë-Jumpy Hydrogen. These vehicles are manufactured at the Valenciennes plant then converted to hydrogen at the former Opel plant in Rüsselheim.

H Van inspired derivatives
In 2017, Italian company FC Automobili revealed a modern interpretation of the Citroën H Van based on the Citroën Relay. The coach built, retro inspired conversion was available either pre assembled, or as a body kit, with 70 examples to be built to mark the 70th anniversary of the Citroën Type H. FC Automobili was later renamed Caselani Carrosserie, and expanded its range with a smaller 'Type HG', based on the Citroën Jumpy. Both vans are available with either internal combustion engines or electric motors.

Type Holidays Concept
At the 2023 Caravan Salon in Germany, Citroën revealed the Type Holidays, a Spacetourer based campervan with bodywork referencing the classic Citroën H Van. Styled by Caselani, The concept vehicle featured a pop-up roof with sleeping accommodation, as well as an on board kitchenette and folding bench seat. Citroën stated that the Type Holidays previewed a new range of vehicles with 'Holidays' branding, which would be aimed at van lifers and holidaymakers.
