Questions
Does the Mercedes Citan have the same dimensions as the Renault Kangoo?
Yes: the Mercedes Citan and the Renault Kangoo are the same van, with the same body and the same interior dimensions in every version. The dimensions on this page apply to both.
Which Citan version is best for a camper conversion?
You can’t stand up in the Citan with the standard roof: you’ll need a pop-top. In the Citan the bed works better lengthwise. The shortest, for town and garages: L1H1.
Does a transverse bed fit in the Citan?
Not as standard: there’s 122 cm between the wheel arches and you need about 136 cm. In the Citan the bed works better lengthwise.
How much weight can a converted Citan carry?
Depending on the version, the Citan has a factory payload of 650–800 kg (approx.). Insulation, lining, furniture, water, luggage and people all count: the editor adds it up as you design and warns you if you go over.
