Interested in a Peugeot Partner?

    Peugeot has given its Partner small commercial van a new model structure as part of a 2022 update.

    UPDATE 21/01/22 – There’s been a price increase ranging from $1350 to $1725, depending on trim level, with no specification changes. Peugeot says the price rise is due to increased production costs.

    All Partner vans with a contract of sale date on or before December 31, 2021 will have the previous manufacturer’s list pricing (MLP) honoured.

    The range starts with the City trim, which is a new base trim level.

    It strips some of the equipment that was standard on the outgoing model, including the touchscreen infotainment system and autonomous emergency braking.

    This is intended to create a lower asking price.

    The mid-range Pro trim on the other hand receives all the standard equipment and safety features from the outgoing model.

    The Partner range caps out at the Premium trim, which brings more luxurious features intended to transform the vehicle into something more car-like.

    Up until the end of September 2021, Peugeot has sold 228 Partner vans. It was outsold by both of its two main competitors, the Renault Kangoo (522) and the Volkswagen Caddy Van (496).
