Citroën e-SpaceTourer XL 75 kWh

Overview

The 2025 Citroën e-SpaceTourer XL 75 kWh is all about hauling your crew and their kit in zero-emission comfort! This XL version, packing the larger 75 kWh battery (that's 68 kWh usable, mind you), is the big daddy of the range, designed for maximum passenger and cargo flexibility with seating for up to nine. While it’s a cool piece of French kit, it’s not officially sold Stateside, so US pricing isn't on the cards. Think of it as Europe’s answer to a seriously practical electric family bus, ready for any adventure.

What's New for 2025?

For 2025, the e-SpaceTourer XL rocks a fresh new face! Citroën’s given it a bit of a nip-and-tuck with a redesigned front end, sporting their slick new oval badge and some sharp headlamp clusters. Inside, the tech gets a boost with an updated, larger 10-inch central touchscreen infotainment system, promising a more connected experience. There are also whispers of tweaks under the skin to squeeze a few more miles out of that 75 kWh battery pack, making this people-mover even more efficient for the daily grind or family road trips.

Design & Exterior

The e-SpaceTourer XL doesn’t try to be anything it’s not – it's a handsome, purposeful van built for serious duties. The recent refresh gives it a more modern front grille and lighting signature. As the "XL" badge suggests, this thing is properly massive, stretching out to 210 inches long, 75.6 inches wide (mirrors folded, natch), and standing 74.4 inches tall. It’s got that classic Euro-van slab-sided efficiency, meaning acres of space inside, and it’s more about function than outright flash, perfect for blending in while getting the job done.

Interior, Tech & Cargo

Step inside the e-SpaceTourer XL, and it’s all about maximizing space for up to nine occupants and their gear. Expect durable materials built for family life or shuttle duties. The real party trick is the cargo hauling: you get a useful 34.9 cubic feet behind the third row, swelling to a cavernous 160.8 cubic feet with seats tumbled. No frunk, sadly. Tech-wise, the highlight is the new 10-inch touchscreen, likely running wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, keeping everyone entertained and navigated on those long hauls.

Performance & Driving Experience

Don't expect Tesla-style ludicrous speed here; the e-SpaceTourer XL is more about smooth, serene progress. Its single Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) up front sends 100 kW (around 134 horsepower) and 162 lb-ft of torque to the front wheels. That translates to a 0-60 mph dash in a leisurely 13.7 seconds, topping out at 81 mph – plenty for city and highway cruising. The driving experience is tuned for comfort, soaking up bumps well, making it a relaxed companion. Regenerative braking helps recoup some energy, ideal for urban crawls.

Range, Battery & Charging

The XL 75 kWh model boasts a 68 kWh usable battery, delivering a Green Cars Compare estimated real-world range of around 185 miles – decent for a big bus like this, with an efficiency of about 2.72 mi/kWh. For US shores, it would likely sport a CCS Type 1 port. Home charging via its standard 11 kW AC on-board charger will juice it up fully in about 6-7 hours. On the road, its 400V system can accept up to 100 kW DC fast charging, getting you from 10-80% in around 35-40 minutes.

Safety & Driver-Assistance Features

While official US NHTSA safety ratings aren't available as it's not sold here, similar Stellantis vans have performed respectably in Euro NCAP tests historically. You can expect a suite of modern driver-assistance systems to be available for the e-SpaceTourer XL. This would likely include features like autonomous emergency braking, lane keeping assist, driver attention alert, speed limit recognition, and potentially adaptive cruise control, though some might be optional extras depending on the final US spec, if it ever arrived. Always check the window sticker for specifics!

Warranty & Maintenance Coverage

If Citroën brought the e-SpaceTourer XL to the US, expect a warranty package competitive with other EVs. This would typically mean a basic vehicle warranty of around 3 years/36,000 miles or perhaps 5 years/60,000 miles. The crucial battery warranty would likely be 8 years/100,000 miles, guaranteeing at least 70% of its original capacity. Powertrain coverage often mirrors the battery terms. One of the big pluses of EV ownership is reduced maintenance – no oil changes here, just tires, brakes, and wipers to keep an eye on!
