Lease a Citroën Relay in the UK
The Citroën Relay is a capable and versatile large van designed for businesses that need generous load capacity, practical access and a wide choice of configurations.
Sitting above the Berlingo and Dispatch in the Citroën van range, the Relay is well suited to construction companies, delivery fleets, tradespeople, facilities-management providers and businesses transporting bulky equipment or materials.
Depending on the selected configuration, the Citroën Relay offers load volumes of up to 17m³, load lengths of up to 4.07 metres and payload capacities exceeding two tonnes on selected versions. Different body lengths, roof heights and gross vehicle weights allow businesses to choose a van suited to their precise operational requirements.
The Relay is also available in several chassis configurations, making it a practical base for specialist conversions such as Luton vans, dropsides, tippers, refrigerated vehicles and other bespoke commercial bodies.
With efficient diesel engines, electric options, modern connectivity and useful driver-assistance technology, the Citroën Relay provides the flexibility required by modern businesses and commercial fleets.
Why Choose a Citroën Relay Lease?
Leasing a Citroën Relay can give your business access to a new large van without the significant upfront cost associated with purchasing vehicles outright.
Benefits of leasing a Citroën Relay include:
Whether you require one van or several vehicles for a growing fleet, MPH Vehicle Solutions can help you identify the most suitable Relay specification and funding arrangement.
Citroën Relay Business Leasing
The Citroën Relay is primarily designed around the requirements of business users. Its large and practical cargo area makes it particularly suitable for transporting tools, equipment, materials, parcels and other commercial loads.
Citroën Relay business leasing may be suitable for:
Business Contract Hire can provide fixed monthly rentals over an agreed contract period and mileage allowance. At the end of the agreement, the vehicle is normally returned to the finance provider, subject to the contract terms, mileage allowance and applicable fair wear and tear standards.
Other funding options may include Finance Lease, Hire Purchase and outright purchase, depending on the vehicle and your business requirements.
Citroën Relay Load Space and Payload
One of the Relay’s principal strengths is its carrying capacity. Depending on the selected body length and roof height, the cargo volume can range from approximately 10m³ to 17m³.
Practical load-area features can include:
Payload varies considerably between derivatives. Additional equipment, conversion bodies, passengers and accessories can all reduce the remaining carrying capacity, so it is important to choose the correct specification for your intended workload.
The MPH team can help you compare gross vehicle weight, payload, load dimensions and towing requirements before placing an order.
Citroën Relay Sizes and Configurations
The Citroën Relay range includes different lengths, roof heights and weight categories, allowing it to support a broad range of commercial applications.
Available configurations may include:
Vehicle availability varies, and certain body styles may be produced by an approved commercial-vehicle converter rather than supplied directly from the Citroën factory.
MPH Vehicle Solutions can help coordinate the vehicle, funding and conversion process to provide a solution tailored to your business.
Citroën Relay Van Conversions
The Citroën Relay chassis provides a flexible platform for specialist commercial-vehicle conversions.
Potential Relay conversions include:
When specifying a converted vehicle, it is essential to consider the weight of the body, fitted equipment and expected load. MPH can work with specialist converters and funding providers to help ensure the finished vehicle is appropriate for its intended purpose.

The ë-Relay may be particularly suitable for:
Actual range and charging times can be affected by payload, vehicle configuration, temperature, driving style, speed, auxiliary equipment and charging conditions.
Before choosing an electric large van, MPH can help you consider daily mileage, payload, downtime, charging access and total operating requirements.
Citroën Relay Towing Capacity
Selected Citroën Relay derivatives can provide a braked towing capacity of between approximately 2,250kg and 3,000kg.
The exact towing capacity depends on the engine, transmission, body configuration, gross vehicle weight and gross train weight. Drivers must also ensure that the combined weight of the vehicle, conversion, passengers, load and trailer remains within the applicable legal limits.
Please confirm the towing capacity of the individual derivative before ordering.
