Then, when the time comes for you to do paperwork out on the road you have the unique availability to fold down the single or middle passenger seat, (depending which model you choose) to create a handy table-top.
THE OUTSIDE
The new Berlingo has an air of confidence. Its sturdy yet stylish look, confirms it’s a multi-talented workhorse, ready for any challenge. Robust wrap-around bumpers and side rubbing strips help protect against everyday bumps and scrapes.
The large, imposing front lights sit high and are neatly out the way of damage. As you move down the van, it is obvious that the new Berlingo has all the characteristics of the original but evolved with larger flanks, emphasising the additional capacity available.
At the rear, you have a choice of either unglazed solid rear doors or glazed. This was never an option on the previous berlingo, now called the Berlingo First. It was glazed doors or steel window blanks retro fitted. Safety and security is key, with a third, high-level brake light to warn everyone of your deceleration; even if you opt for the rear opening roof-flap, which allows for those longer items such as ladders, it will still be clearly visible to all.
Whatever the configuration, new Berlingo stands out as a van you can easily adapt for most purposes and it comes in a range of paint colours to suit your style, including metallic and pearlescent finishes.
THE INSIDE

All that is before you start folding seats, adding rear roof flaps and using the numerous handy storage compartments dotted around the interior, which take new Berlingo up to an impressive 4.1 m³.
With new Berlingo you can carry up to 850kg of payload andto secure the load. In the event of sudden braking, you are protected from shifting loads by the standard ladder-frame bulkhead behind the driver’s seat, or you can opt for a variety of additional bulkhead options, even one that will still allow you to make use of the 3m plus load length with the Extenso® Seat System, whilst still protecting the cab from shifting loads.

In the cab you will find the seats are comfortable and ideal for zipping around town or long hauls up and down the motorway and being fully adjustable seats will mean you will be able to find your natural driving posture. Add to this a reach and rake adjustable steering wheel and maximum comfort will not be hard to find. The new dashboard display is easy to read and well laid out so controls are within easy reach and the trip computer means you will know exactly how efficiently you are driving your new Berlingo.
To ensure you keep your new Berlingo as smart on the inside as on the outside, there is an impressive 61 litres of storage space in the cabin which is made up from 2 glove boxes, an overhead storage shelf, door Pockets, central console storage and under seat storage. With the Extenso® Seat System there is even secure storage in the centre seat bigger enough for a laptop.
HOW’S THE DRIVE?
The new Berlingo’s cabin space is as well equipped, comfortable and quiet as most modern cars and the refined chassis means that any bumps in the road are dealt with effortlessly. Air-conditioning, which is available on all models, keeps the internal temperature constant no matter the weather outside.
