Peugeot Partner is a practical and elegant minivan, ideal for both long trips with big family, and for transporting small-sized cargo.

o Partner is based on the golf class model. In the classification used in Europe, similar cars are not allocated to a separate segment. By overall dimensions The car is more suitable for class C, but Peugeot Partner is usually classified as a compact van. This classification is only partly correct, since compact vans are positioned as cars for families and have a single-volume layout. The Peugeot Partner is usually used as a small truck.

Since its appearance, only the first generation of the model has been able to sell 700,000 units. The attractive interior, interesting design and high reliability make you pay attention to the Peugeot Partner.

Production history and purpose

Cars similar to the Peugeot Partner have been produced for quite some time. The USSR also had a similar model - IZH 2715 (“Heel”). However, the French product differed from them in one significant feature. Almost all of its competitors were three-volume with a pronounced cabin (usually a double one), an all-metal cargo compartment and engine compartment. The Peugeot Partner was built according to a different scheme, combining the cargo compartment and the cabin (only a mesh separated them). This arrangement turned out to be quite unusual, but it was to the taste of the consumer.

1st generation

The premiere of the first generation Peugeot Partner took place in 1996, when similar models were already on the market. At the same time he debuted and Citroen Berlingo(“twin brother” of the car). The differences between them were only in the design of the instrument panel and nameplates. In other characteristics, the models copied each other. The Peugeot Partner was assembled at plants in Argentina, Spain and Portugal, and on the Italian market the car was sold under the name Peugeot Ranch.

The French product was a classic compact van with a small front end and a cargo area. The appearance of the car turned out to be discreet: small elongated headlights, a large hood and a brand logo. The cabin could accommodate up to 5 people, and rear end allowed to transport up to 3 cubic meters of cargo. It was the versatility and good performance characteristics that became the main advantage of the model.

Peugeot Partner I was produced in 2 modifications:

• 5-seater passenger version;
• cargo variation in the back of a van.

The range of power plants included 1.6- and 2-liter turbodiesels (75 and 90 hp, respectively), 1.4-liter gasoline (75 hp) and 1.6-liter gasoline (109 hp). ) units. Later, a 1.9-liter naturally aspirated diesel engine (69 hp) appeared.

The first generation of Peugeot Partner arrived in Russia a little later and immediately gained great popularity. The model was used by transport organizations and in taxis.

After 6 years of sales, the manufacturer decided to restyling the Peugeot Partner. Updated model debuted in 2002. The changes affected the bumpers, taillights, headlights, grille and interior. The main element of the front part was the clearly defined “kangurin” bumper, painted in body color (on top versions). The headlights became larger and more massive and were combined with lighting devices (turn signals, side lights, high and low beam headlights) into one unit. Large mirror housings and wings added completeness to the look. The “refreshed” version attracted new customers and attracted increased attention.

The restyled version has many progressive devices. The car was equipped with special windshield wipers, an upgraded power steering and other innovations. By level of equipment updated Peugeot The partner has become orderly better than its predecessor. Already in the basic version, the model received airbags for the front passenger and driver.

In 2003, the Peugeot Partner family was replenished with an all-terrain version – the Peugeot Partner Escapade. The car was equipped with plastic arch covers, unpainted bumper corners and protective grilles for taillights and headlights. The all-terrain modification had practically no technical differences from the basic version. The model received only a limited slip differential and increased ground clearance, retaining exclusively front-wheel drive.

Restyling also affected motor range, which added 1.6- and 2-liter M59 turbocharged units. The most common engines were the 1.4-liter TU3 and the 1.9-liter DW8B, which became one of the most economical and reliable diesel engines in the world. In 2006, the French brand offered a 1.6-liter HDi turbodiesel (75 and 90 hp), which was developed by specialists from Citroen, Peugeot and Ford.

In 2004, the model received minor cosmetic improvements, and after another 4 years it was discontinued. The production of the first generation continued in Turkey, from where the cars were supplied to the markets of other countries.

2nd generation

In 2008, Peugeot introduced the second generation Partner. The car again received a “double” in the form of the Citroen Berlingo MK2. The basic version of Partner acquired the Tepee prefix, cargo modifications received the VU index. It is noteworthy that the first generation, the demand for which remained high, was not discontinued, giving it the name Peugeot Partner Origin. The complete model left the production line only in 2011. During the same period, deliveries of the vehicle to the Russian market ceased.

The second generation became a completely new model, based on the same base as Peugeot cars 308 and Citroen C4. The car has added dimensions, cargo compartment volume and carrying capacity. Peugeot Partner II immediately gained a foothold in the market, since the exterior of the model changed slightly, but the inside became more comfortable and spacious.

The younger unit (1.1 l) left the engine line, to which several engines were added at once. The most interesting was the 2-liter HDi unit with injection system Common Rail(power 90 hp). The technical base has also changed. In particular, struts similar to MacPherson struts appeared in the chassis. Instead of torsion rear suspension an elastic beam appeared on springs (like passenger cars), which provided a smoother and smoother ride, but had a negative impact on cargo characteristics.

In 2012, Peugeot Partner underwent a light restyling. Changes affected the front bumper and interior. At the same time, the design of the model remained the same. The PSA Peugeot-Citroen concern was unable to carry out global transformations due to financial difficulties.

In 2016, the Peugeot Partner Tepee Electric was shown. The model combines the advantages of the serial variation with the capabilities of an electric vehicle. The car received a huge power reserve (up to 170 km) and economical engine. The French brand held the world premiere of the model in Geneva. The start of sales of the Partner Tepee Electric version is scheduled for autumn 2017.

IN standard version the car is in demand among private carriers and among clients with large families. The machine is equally effective at transporting small cargo and delivering a family to a vacation spot.

Engine

The range of engines from Peugeot Partner Origin is quite wide. Petrol options include 1.1- and 1.4-liter units. Their power is not always enough for a car. The 1.6-liter seems more interesting gasoline engine(4 cylinders, 109 hp), but the production of modifications equipped with it ended in 2001.

Device

The Peugeot Partner was positioned as a versatile car for active people who needed a car that could carry a large amount of cargo and several people. The design of the French product was developed with these priorities in mind.

The Peugeot Partner received a front-wheel drive layout with a 4 by 2 wheel arrangement. The engine of the car was located in the front. Chassis was considered one of strengths car. An independent suspension of the Pseudo McPherson type was installed at the front, and a transverse beam at the rear. Road unevenness when driving the Peugeot Partner was perceived quite mildly. This solution turned out to be successful in terms of maintainability. The high ground clearance made it possible to move around both the city and the countryside.

Initially, the model was equipped exclusively with a 5-speed gearbox. Later the number of transmissions increased. For the second generation, 3 gearbox variations were offered:

• 5-speed manual gearbox;
• 6-speed manual gearbox;
• 6-band automatic transmission.

Steering type: rack and pinion. IN basic modification The car received power steering.

The front wheels of the Peugeot Partner were installed disc brakes(for all versions), drum brakes on the rear wheels. Thanks to this, even in emergency situations braking distances was quite small.

The wheels in the basic version were equipped with 205/65R15H tires.

The Peugeot Partner (especially in the second generation) was equipped with many safety systems to protect passengers and the driver. Already at the “minimum wage” the car received anti-lock braking system(ABS) and belts with pretensioners. Optionally available:

• HILL ASSIST system, which helps to start moving on a slope;
• automatic braking system;
• adaptive fog lights, which provided illumination of the inner turning radius at speeds of up to 40 km/h;
• stabilization system that returns the car to its previous trajectory;
• GRIP CONTROL system that distributes torque on the axle. It provided maximum grip and improved the vehicle’s maneuverability regardless of the road surface;
• Cruise control;
• rear view camera, automatically activated when reversing;
• parking sensors;
• ISOFIX child anchorages.

The interior of the first and second generation Peugeot Partner was practically no different. This is due to the fact that before the appearance of the new product, the model underwent a restyling procedure, and its internal content became more relevant.

The front console of the Peugeot Partner II turned out to be more recent due to the installation of a 7-inch sensor, which is a key element of the entertainment system. It was used to control the telephone, navigation and on-board computer.

The driver's seat has been made more comfortable. The controls were located in the right areas and did not interfere with driving. The only issue was related to the poor location of the seat heating button. It was located on the side of the chair and overlapped when the belt was fastened. This flaw was not considered a serious drawback.

We chose good finishing materials for the interior. I was also pleased with the fit of the elements, which did not raise any complaints. The front seats were ergonomic and comfortable and received lateral support, making it easier to travel long distances. The rear seats, which can accommodate 3 adults, were also quite comfortable. An optional air conditioning system was offered for the rear row (located under the roof).

The number of various shelves, boxes and drawers in the Peugeot Partner has always been very large. When traveling, the trunk could hold up to 675 liters of cargo, and with the seats folded – up to 3000 liters. Wherein rear seats could be used as small chairs during outdoor recreation. In the cargo version there was no back row, so the maximum trunk volume was by default. The car had 5 seats.

Inside, the Peugeot Partner turned out to be very attractive. Light interior trim, interesting front panel, a large number of shelves and huge opportunities transformations attracted the attention of family clients and commercial companies.

The Peugeot Partner is a practical and attractive car that is perfect for everyday use and for business.

From my first experience driving a Peugeot Partner Origin, I remember how impressed I was by the very high bus seating position of the car, amazing soft suspension and, in principle, a comfortable interior, although the chassis needed to be sorted out. It’s good that in Moscow there are stores that specialize in “French”. The car is very easy to drive thanks to the presence of power steering. There are no problems starting the engine in the morning. And, despite the fact that the car has a diesel engine under the hood, I can easily “do” many cars at third speed. I not only drive around the city, I go on picnics with my family and I feel confident even in places where not every Zhiguli would go. Practical and spacious interior. The car is designed so that the driver is comfortable, normal sound insulation, soft suspension, practically does not break through, only if the potholes are really solid, very good finishing in the interior, I like the design of the tidy. My opinion about French-made cars eventually changed to the opposite. The Peugeot Partner Origin is a great family car.

Advantages : very high bus seating position of the car. Delightfully soft suspension and a generally comfortable interior. The car is very easy to drive. Practical and spacious interior.

Flaws : not found.

Vladimir, Moscow

Peugeot Partner Origin, 2005

I’ve been using the Peugeot Partner Origin for 2 years now, I’m happy with the car, I’m completely satisfied with it, excellent interior volume, good clearance, a huge trunk, if you also take into account the folding rear seats. Comfortable seating in the front seats, a spacious rear sofa that can comfortably accommodate 3 adult passengers. The car's handling is perfect and there's nothing to compare it to. In fact, it is easy and confident to drive, very maneuverable, although the suspension is a little harsh, but when the car is loaded, it moves like a ship. In winter the cabin is very warm, the heater works great. I want to say two words about the review, it is simply beyond praise. It may seem like I'm writing an ode, but in fact the car is great, a real all-rounder, a family car. Of course, there are some drawbacks, the main one is a rather weak engine, although with a manual transmission you can get a good start from a traffic light, it all depends on your driving style. I think the consumption could be more modest, again it all depends on the driver’s driving. I know that there are more serious cars of this kind, but they are naturally less accessible due to their price. My personal opinion: Peugeot Partner Origin is worth the money and deserves attention.

Advantages : comfort and practicality.

Flaws : weak engine.

Today, the car is quite in demand in numerous markets around the world - more than 140,000 “heels” are sold every year. The practical model was last updated in 2015. The entire Peugeot model range.

Car history

Cars similar to the Peugeot Partner have been produced for quite a long time. In the Soviet Union there was a similar car - IZH 2715. But the French model stood out from all its analogues in a significant way. Almost all other vehicles were three-box with a clearly defined cabin (often a 2-seater), had an all-metal cargo compartment and an engine compartment.

But they decided to build the Peugeot Partner according to a different type, connecting the cargo compartment and the cabin (they were separated only by a mesh). Despite this unusual layout, the consumer quickly fell in love with it.

I generation (1996-2008)

Peugeot Partner I was presented for the first time back in 1996. At that time automobile market already owned similar “machines”. Along with the appearance of Peugeot, the first version was released, which was the “twin brother” of the car. The cars differed only in the trim, dashboard and badges. If we take the remaining parameters, then the two cars repeated each other.

The Peugeot version was produced at the Argentine, Spanish and Portuguese plants, and the Italian market can buy the car under the name Peugeot Ranch. The Frenchman was a classic compact van with a small bow area and cargo compartment. The appearance of the “heel” turned out to be discreet.

Peugeot Partner I generation

One can highlight the presence of compact elongated headlights, a massive hood and a company nameplate. Inside it could accommodate 5 adults, and the aft area allowed transporting up to 3 cubes of luggage. Thanks to its versatility and excellent operating parameters, this vehicle and loved by many drivers.

Peugeot Partner I generation, already in the first time of production, was able to win the respect of numerous car enthusiasts from all over the world, thanks to its practicality, versatility and good performance.

The list of power plants featured 1.6- and 2.0-liter turbodiesels, which developed 75 and 90 horsepower, respectively. In addition, they produced cars with a 1.4-liter 75-horsepower and 1.6-liter 109-horsepower engine. A little later, a 1.9-liter naturally aspirated diesel unit was released, producing 69 “horses”.

The debut Peugeot Partner family arrived to the Russians a little later, but instantly found high demand. Transport organizations used cars quite often in taxis. Time passed, and six years later, the company decided to modernize its “brainchild”. Updated car was officially introduced in 2002.

Partner I generation restyling

Restyling affected bumpers, taillights, headlights, radiator grille and interior decoration. The main detail of the nose area was a clearly defined “kangurin” bumper, which was painted in body color (on expensive models). The headlights grew in size and began to look more massive, and they were also combined with lighting devices (turn signals, side lights, high and low beam headlights) into one unit.

Completes the outer Peugeot view Partner I generation restyling, the presence of large mirror housings and wings. Since a “refreshed” version of the universal car was released, it was able to interest even more potential buyers.

The vehicle of the debut family was awarded the prestigious “International Van of the Year” award in 1997.

The restyled version received a large number of advanced devices. The car has special windshield wipers, an upgraded power steering wheel and other progressive innovations. If you compare the previous car with modernized version, then it was significantly better, especially in terms of equipment. The basic version had front (driver and passenger) airbags.

The cargo version provides only a double cabin and a cargo compartment with a volume of 3 cubic meters. All other options have a luggage compartment with a capacity of 624-664 liters. The interior of the car has a large number of different compartments for small items and will please you with its spaciousness.

Those sitting in the second row of seats will not experience discomfort. You can get to it using rather large side sliding doors. They can be installed on one or both sides of the car. Most examples do not have a moving left side door. But the models of the debut years of production did not have sliding doors.

You get to the second row of seats using the reclined backrest of the front seat, which brings some discomfort. With the onset of 2003, the Peugeot Partner division was replenished with an off-road option - Peugeot Partner Escapade. The car has plastic arch linings, unpainted bumper corners and protective grilles for stern lights and headlights.

Difference technical plan The off-road version has almost none from the standard model. This option only received a limited-slip differential and higher ground clearance, leaving only front-wheel drive. Modernization also affected motor list, which had 1.6- and 2-liter turbocharged M59 units. The most common power units are TU3, with a volume of 1.4 liters, and DW8B, with a volume of 1.9 liters.

The latter, in turn, has become one of the most economical and reliable engines in the world. When 2006 arrived, French specialists developed a 1.6-liter HDi turbodiesel power plant, producing 75 and 90 horsepower.

This unit was developed by employees of Peugeot and. Production of the first generation continued at Turkish factories, from which the vehicles were sold to other countries.

II generation (2008-present)

When 2008 arrived, many car enthusiasts were already expecting the appearance of the second generation Peugeot Partner. The novelty again received a “double” in the form of the Citroen Berlingo MK2. The cargo-passenger version of the Peugeot Partner, which received the name “Teepee,” was officially demonstrated for the first time at the beginning of 2008, and a “full-scale” presentation took place in the spring of the same year during the already familiar Geneva automobile event.

The cargo version received the VU index. If we compare the model with the previous generation, the Peugeot Partner Tipi has changed dramatically. The changes affected the appearance, interior and technical “stuffing”. With the onset of February 2012, the French car experienced its first restyling, which was limited only to cosmetic improvements.

Already in 2015, the practical five-door Peugeot Partner Tepee underwent a second wave of modernization, which became more serious. They decided to improve the appearance of the car, make some changes to the interior, add new diesel power plants and expand the list of available equipment.

It is interesting that the debut family, the demand for which did not fall even after the release of the 2nd generation, was decided not to be removed from the assembly line. The car was named Peugeot Partner Origin. The first generation left mass production only in 2011. Just at this time, cars were no longer supplied to Russia.

Exterior

The second family was a completely new car, which was based on the same “trolley” with its “relatives” and the Citroen C4. From the outside, the car remains a fully recognizable vehicle, however, it will inherit a modified front end. The new product was presented at the end of 2017, and it will go on sale this year.

The French company has always been known for its own creative ideas that relate to appearance. Based on this, the exterior of the Peugeot Partner Tepee turned out to be quite memorable - there is a smiling contour of the front part, triangular headlights and a large bumper with a silver insert.

Peugeot Partner II restyling

The hood of the car is quite flat and small, which causes a little awkwardness when maintenance. But this is significantly covered by a massive windshield. As for visibility, the French “heel” is simply gorgeous, and this is based on reviews from the owners of the model. The compact van received a black roof with roof rails, and an optional panoramic roof can be installed.

After restyling, which was carried out by specialists from the French company, the updated car began to look much better. The workers managed to slightly modify the shape of the optics and bumper and add more relief to the hood. The radiator grille now looked more pronounced and received a chrome surround. Above the “fog lights”, which have become more compact, there is a line of LED daytime running lights that is popular today.

The Partner Tipi machine's desire for adventure is mainly manifested in the Outdoor version. It features a black, unpainted front bumper that emphasizes the vehicle's strength and confidence. The five-door car seems to invite you to go on a long journey along any road. Height ground clearance at 141 millimeters.

You can get inside the Peugeot Partner Tepee from almost any direction. Thanks to the side sliding doors, you can open the doorway to its full width, which greatly simplifies getting in and out. The large aft door, which opens upwards to a wide angle, allows for easy loading and unloading of luggage in the trunk.

French developers were seriously concerned about the functionality of their model. For example, when the car is parked in a compact parking lot, to get into the trunk you can use not the door, but only the folding glass, which allows you to perform various manipulations even in small spaces.

By means of roof rails installed longitudinally, you can install cross-bars and transport luggage weighing up to 80 kilograms. And thanks to the fresh 16-inch eight-spoke light alloy wheels from the Managua line, the owner will be able to highlight the perkiness of his restyled car.

In general, the modernized Peugeot Partner Tipi looks stylish, modern and, most importantly, practical. If previously the model had a very large circle of fans due to its excellent functionality, then the new product is designed to significantly expand this circle.

Interior

The interior of the debut and second versions of the “French” hardly stood out. This is explained by the fact that before the release of the new model, it underwent restyling, and its interior became more relevant. If we talk about the front console of the 2nd generation Peugeot Partner, then it has become more recent. This was partly achieved thanks to the introduction of a 7-inch color screen, which also supports touch input.

This element represents the entertainment system, call control, navigation system and on-board computer. The steering wheel can be adjusted for height and reach, and the front seats have armrests. This vehicle tries to keep up with modern technologies and can offer the most current opportunities for synchronizing electronic gadgets.

This includes an on-board communication system via Bluetooth, a USB connector and the Mirror Screen function. The last option, through a touch-type display, allows you to use add-ons installed on the owner’s smartphone. The driver's seat is now much more comfortable, and the controls are located in the right areas, which does not interfere with the comfort of moving around in the car.

A little incomprehensible is the inconvenient location of the button for turning on the seat heating function, which was located on the side of the seat. When the driver fastened his seat belt, access to it was blocked, but this can hardly be called a serious flaw. For the interior decoration, French specialists selected high-quality finishing materials.

One can be pleased with the level of fit of parts that does not raise inappropriate questions. The seats installed in front are ergonomic and comfortable, and also have lateral support, which greatly facilitates long journey. The rear seats can accommodate 3 passengers.

It's quite convenient to be there. As a separate option, you can install an air conditioning system for people sitting in the back (located under the roof). The large number of different shelves, compartments and drawers in the Peugeot Partner has always been famous. Considering the traveling condition, the luggage compartment could accommodate up to 675 liters of useful luggage, and if the rear seats are folded, this amount can increase to an impressive 3,000 liters.

Interestingly, the rear seats could be used as compact “chairs” when relaxing outside the city. The cargo version did not have a second row, so the luggage compartment volume was at the standard level. The carrying capacity of the latest family (including the owner) is 605 kilograms, and the model can tow up to 1,300 kilograms, but taking into account the presence of brakes on the trailer.

In general, everything in the Peugeot Partner Tepee’s interior is quite attractive. There is a light interior finish, an interesting front panel, a large number of shelves and a colossal transformation resource. This and much more often encourages potential buyers to look in the direction of the Peugeot Partner 2.

Specifications

Power unit

The Russian market can offer Peugeot Partner Tipia with a pair of four-cylinder power plants. The first is the petrol 4-cylinder 1.6-liter EP6C engine, which received the system distributed injection, variable valve timing and a sixteen-valve gas distribution mechanism.

As a result, the engine develops 120 “horses” at 6,000 rpm and 160 Nm of torque at 4,250 rpm. The petrol version consumes about 7.1 liters for every 100 kilometers. Next comes the 1.6-liter power diesel unit DV6DTED, which has a turbocharged compressor, Common Rail battery injection and an eight-valve gas distribution mechanism.

All this produces 92 horsepower at 4,000 rpm and 230 Nm of torque at 1,750 rpm. The diesel version requires about 5.7 liters of fuel per hundred km.

Transmission

The Peugeot Partner engine is paired with a five- and six-speed manual transmission, as well as a 6-speed automatic transmission, delivering all the torque to the front wheels only. Based on the technical characteristics of the Peugeot Partner, the car can accelerate to 161-177 kilometers per hour, and reach the first hundred in 11.9-14.3 seconds (depending on the version).

Chassis

As the basis for the second version of the Peugeot Partner Tipi, they used a front-wheel drive PSA PF2 “trolley”, which uses a steel body and a power unit located transversely. Front axle French car uses independent suspension McPherson type, and the rear is a semi-independent lever structure. In addition, the aft section received a deformable beam (“in a circle”, with anti-roll bars).

The vehicle has a river-type steering complex and power steering. All wheels are equipped with disc braking devices, which in front are still ventilated (283 millimeters), and at the back are standard wheels(268 millimeters). All this is complemented by electronic ABS and EBD systems.

Safety

The latest technical features of the updated Peugeot Partner Tipi provide safety for the driver and passengers. It’s worth mentioning right away about the rear video camera, which starts working automatically when the reverse gear is engaged. Using it, the owner visualizes the vehicle’s trajectory on a color display that supports touch input, and also makes maneuvers more safely.

Rear View Camera

On top of that there is a front and rear parking sensors, which specialists from the French company installed on both bumpers. They provide the opportunity to notice obstacles in the car’s path that are invisible from the driver’s seat during parking maneuvers.

This equipment can be combined with a rear camera, which only makes parking easier. Don't forget about the automatic braking system and cruise control. The Outdoor version, if you pay extra, has a Grip control system that provides improved handling on the road surface through advanced traction control electronics.

Due to the rotary switch on the front panel, the owner is able to select the required driving mode at a given time: “Snow”, “Mud”, “Sand”, “ESP on.” or “ESP off.” This helps improve road grip. Hill Assist will please potential buyers.

He knows how to briefly hold the car's brakes when the owner tries to move from 1st or reverse gear. It turns out that the car owner has some time in reserve to move his foot from the brake to the gas. The car has a system (ESP) that manages to control understeer or oversteer of the “heel” during a turn and take the required actions to keep the car in a given direction.

They didn’t forget to install a traction control system in the new model, which, by adjusting the traction force power plant and braking of some wheels, provides control over the car in bad conditions road conditions. The cruise control system allows the driver to remain at a constant speed limit without the need to apply additional gas.

And the speed limiter allows you to specify the maximum speed beyond which the car will not be able to accelerate even if the car owner presses on the gas. Also, in order to increase the level of safety and increase visibility on the road section, specialists were able to equip the bow “fog lamps” with the function of illuminating the inner turning radius when the car is moving at a speed limit of up to 40 kilometers per hour.

Such an additional lighting system is very necessary when moving around the city, passing through intersections and when maneuvering in a parking lot. Already in the basic configuration, the Peugeot Partner Tipi has four airbags, three-point seat belts on the front and rear seats, as well as ISOFIX child mounts for the rear row.

It is very pleasant that in order to increase the level of safety, they decided to refine the design of the vehicle more thoroughly. The car now has:

• Zones of programmed deformation that absorb shock more effectively;
• A steering column that moves away from the driver in the event of a traffic accident to reduce the chance of injury;
• strong load-bearing elements that preserve vital space inside the car during a rollover;
• a modified front part of the car, which, in the event of a collision with a pedestrian, allows to minimize the injuries caused.

Although the Peugeot Partner Tepee has not yet been crash tested European company EuroNCAP, but a similar French model, Citroen Berlingo, passed the test quite successfully. She managed to score 26 points, which corresponds to 4 stars.

The Russian market offers the 2018 model in 3 equipment versions - “Active”, “Outdoor” and “Allure”. The French “heel” already in the standard version of the equipment will cost no less than 1,338,000 rubles. If a buyer wants to purchase a vehicle with a diesel power unit, he will have to pay at least 1,438,000 rubles. The “top” version of the compact van is priced at 1,450,000 rubles.

Partner Van Long Electric

Tuning Peugeot Partner

Quite a number car owners wanting to give their car a unique look and “rejuvenate” it, they resort to a variety of tuning. External Peugeot tuning Tipi's partner may include the installation of various linings on the wheel arches, including chrome, a transverse rack for roof rails with a lock, a fly swatter, wind deflectors, turn-by-turn lights with the option of running lights, a rear arch, a bulge guard, a front pipe, rear protection bumpers, side platforms, window trim, exterior mirror caps and door handles, mudguards and so on.

Tuned Peugeot Partner

In addition, this includes beautiful and quite rare airbrushing on a car. The installation of external lighting, for example, like neon, will also look unusual. Inside the Peugeot Partner Tepee, some owners install other seat covers, decorative trims on the dashboard, floor mats and luggage compartment floor mats, other lighting, and also improve the audio system by purchasing more powerful speakers or an amplifier. If someone does not have enough factory sound insulation, then they can improve it on their own.
