“The Peugeot Partner represents an important step in the growth of the brand in South Africa,” said Moeketsi Mapogo, brand head of Pro One LCV at Stellantis South Africa. “As we continue to expand in the light-commercial vehicle market, businesses are under increasing pressure to do more with less, making affordable and dependable mobility essential. The new Partner is designed to meet that need, combining low running costs, practical functionality and modern technology in a commercial vehicle built for everyday business demands.”
Efficient performance for urban business use
The 1,6-litre HDi diesel engine powers the Partner, producing 68kW and 230Nm of torque through a five-speed manual transmission.
Strong low-speed pulling power supports urban delivery cycles and frequent stop-start operation, while fuel consumption is rated at just 5,1l/100 km, helping reduce running costs for business users and fleet operators.
Flexible load capacity and practical design
The Partner is available in two body styles: the Partner SWB (short wheelbase, introduced in South Africa for the first time), and the Partner LWB (long wheelbase).
The SWB configuration provides a load length of 1 817mm, while the LWB extends this to 2 167mm and enables up to 4,4m3 of load volume with the Multiflex bench-seat arrangement.
The LWB derivative supports a payload of up to 1 000kg.
Practical access is enhanced through dual sliding side doors and 180-degree rear doors, supporting efficient loading and unloading in tight urban environments.
