Developed from the ground up to provide tons of practicality, the 2016 Citroen SpaceTourer will have its world premiere this March at the Geneva Motor Show. Designed for big families and shuttle service, the Citroen SpaceTourer can seat up to 9 people.
The backbone of this people carrier is a variation of the PSA group’s EMP2 platform, an architecture also used by the Citroen C4 Picasso and the Grand C4 Picasso. The SpaceTourer will be made available in three distinct variants, including a 4.60-meter (181.1-inch) long model. The M variant measures 4.95 meters (194.9 in) in length, while the XL variant of the Citroen SpaceTourer boasts 5.30 meters (208.7 in).

Hands-free sliding doors and a rear window that fully opens are two of the most important features available. In terms of maximum boot volume, 2,932 liters (103.5 cu ft) is the best the SpaceStourer can do for you. For family duties, the SpaceTourer Feel trim level is the one to go for. If professional passenger transport is higher on your priorities list, then you might be interested in the SpaceTourer Business because this trim level can be made to your business’ measure.

The 2016 Citroen SpaceTourer’s hands-free access feature is exclusive in the segment. Passengers can open and close the side doors with a simple movement of the foot under the corner of the rear bumper. This feature is handy especially when your hands are full with shopping bags, kids, and so forth. The SpaceTourer’s motorized sliding side doors are another highlight, as the driver can open the doors by simply pushing a button on the dashboard.

Being a passenger-oriented vehicle, the Citroen SpaceTourer boasts numerous safety technologies. Lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, road sign recognition, Coffee Break Alert, Driver Attention Alert, Collision Alert, and active cruise control are some of the technologies that anticipate events and provide assistance for a safe, relaxed driving experience. The EuroNCAP 5-star rating also helps with cementing the SpaceTourer’s safety credentials.

At launch, the 2016 Citroen SpaceTourer will be available with six BlueHDi-branded turbo diesel engines with the following outputs and transmissions: 95 five-speed manual, 95 S&S with the ETG6 semi-automatic, 115 S&S six-speed manual, 150 S&S six-speed manual, and 180 S&S ETG6.
