Citroën has pulled a clever move with the Jumpy Type-H Pack. It’s a nod to the past wrapped in a package that works for today’s tradespeople. You’ve got something that looks like it belongs in a retro ad but acts like it was designed by people who know what a 12-hour shift feels like. No fluff. Just usable gear.
Let’s get into it. This is a van built for professionals—specifically craftsmen, service technicians, and mobile specialists—who need reliability, function, and just enough personality to break the gray monotony of work vehicles.
Retro Looks, Modern Thinking
The Type-H Pack styling kit, available exclusively for the Citroën Jumpy, revives the aesthetic of the legendary Citroën Type-H from 1947. Think horizontal slats, squared wheel arches, and a truckload of character.
Key exterior details:
- Horizontal grille reminiscent of the original Type-H
- Box-style front fascia and wide wheel arches
- Vintage-style round headlights embedded in the fascia
- Signature ribbed side panels
It’s available in Metallic Sand, Graphite Grey, and Icy White, colors that help it lean into the retro feel without looking like a gimmick.
Practical Features for Real Work
Citroën didn’t stop at looks. Under the vintage surface is a well-equipped, modern utility van.
1. Built for Cargo and Crew
You get three configurations:
- Panel Van (standard or long): up to 2756 lbs payload
- Crew Van: up to six seats
- Platform Cab: for custom builds
Load volume goes up to 275 cu ft, depending on the version.
2. Engine Options That Make Sense
Powertrains stick to diesel, with four BlueHDi engines:
| Engine | Power | Torque | Transmission |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.5 BlueHDi | 118 hp | 221 lb-ft | 6-speed manual |
| 2.0 BlueHDi | 143 hp | 251 lb-ft | 6-speed manual |
| 2.0 BlueHDi | 180 hp | 295 lb-ft | 8-speed automatic |
| 2.0 BlueHDi | 120 hp | 221 lb-ft | 6-speed manual |
The 180 hp version stands out. With the 8-speed automatic, it’s perfect for city deliveries or long trips.
3. Useful Tech—Nothing Excessive
The Type-H Pack Jumpy comes standard with the Driver Assistance Pack, which includes:
- Rearview camera
- Front and rear parking sensors
- Blind spot monitoring
- Hill start assist
- Speed limiter and cruise control
There’s also a 7-inch touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
