Peugeot Bipper Crowned 'City Van Of The Year'

PARIS – Dec 12, 2011: The Peugeot Bipper van, already an established and popular choice with prominent businesses and companies up and down the country, has been awarded ‘City Van of The Year 2011’ - a prestigious accolade at this year’s Fleet Van Awards.

The highly contested ‘Manufacturer Awards’ is very sought after and the Bipper’s compact proportions, frugal HDi diesel engines and transmissions (with manual, EGC and Stop & Start systems available), a payload of up to 660kg and a load volume of 2.5m3 make it a leading business choice. However, a key factor behind the award success was attributed to the product durability and the quality of Peugeot’s fleet sales and support service.

Commenting on the Peugeot Bipper’s award success, Trevor Gelken, editor of Fleet Van, said: “This was a closely-fought contest, but the Bipper was a clear overall winner, assisted by the prominence of Peugeot’s renewed focus on fleet support and after sales.”

Phil Robson, Peugeot Fleet Director, said: “The Bipper is a terrific light commercial van and thoroughly deserves to be the ‘Fleet Van City Van of the Year 2011’. Winning this prestigious award is yet another demonstration of the importance we place in product excellence with good customer support and after sales service support.”
