Video Summary

Here is the summary of the YouTube video review:
- Prices for the five-seat electric e-Berlingo start at £32,315; petrol and diesel models start at around £25,500. The seven-seater Berlingo XL is electric only.
- It is an excellent family car that offers proper family practicality; sliding doors are useful in tight car parks.
- The flat floor allows easy access for kids to walk across the seats.
- Boot space is vast, with 1000 liters of space with five seats in place and 4000 liters with the middle seats folded.
- The back seats fold up and down and are easily removed or replaced.
- Middle-row seats have tons of space, but they don’t slide or recline and only fold in a 60/40 split.
- The dash is functional and straightforward, and physical air conditioning controls are located below the touchscreen.
- The touchscreen is not the best, and its menu layout can be frustrating. However, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are available.
- Offers a nice driving position with manual lumbar adjustment and good visibility.
- If electric, it has a 50-kilowatt-hour battery with a usable capacity of 46.2 kilowatt-hours, which takes about seven and a half hours to charge from a 7-kilowatt home wall box.
- Plugs into a powerful DC rapid charger, and the Berlingo's 100-kilowatt charging capacity gives an 80% charge in 30 minutes.
- Real-world range drops to less than 100 miles on winter motorways, but hot weather allows up to 150 miles. It has a lot of suspension noise and tire roar.
- It has excellent smooth acceleration and easy throttle modulation.
- Brake feel could be better with more variation in the brake region.
- Offers overhead storage. It is practical, good value, and charming.
