Thanks to a fuel cell, the electric Jumpy has a range of more than 400 km.
No jealousy within the former PSA group. After Opel and Peugeot, it's Citroën's turn to lift the veil on its first hydrogen model. This is the Jumpy utility vehicle, which already existed in 100% electric.
The base is logically the same, with the addition of a 45 kW fuel cell. This produces electricity with hydrogen, which is stored in a tank made up of three cylinders at 700 bars of pressure. There is a 10.5 kWh battery which allows you to have enough to travel 50 km. This battery, which can be recharged on a dedicated terminal, helps to obtain good performance during heavy engine loads.
Autonomy progresses, but ultimately in a limited way. While it goes up to 330 km with the "classic" electric model, it exceeds 400 km here. A gain that can still make the difference for professionals. The big difference is that it only takes three minutes with hydrogen to refuel and therefore regain full autonomy!
The ë-Jumpy Hydrogen will be offered with sizes M (4.95 m) and XL (5.30 m). The base of the vehicle is produced in France, but the transformation with fuel cell is carried out by Opel in Germany. The first deliveries are scheduled for the end of 2021.
