What fits in the load area

Euro pallets (1,200 x 800mm)3, in a single row
UK standard pallets (1,200 x 1,000mm)2, in a single row
8 x 4 sheets (2,440 x 1,220mm)Lie flat on the floor, between the wheel arches
Pipe, timber or laddersUp to 2.5m on the floor

Worked out from the verified floor length 2,512mm, 1,258mm between the wheel arches, 1,397mm high. At the full Euro pallet count, the payload allows about 440kg per pallet. Counts use the width between the wheel arches for the whole floor, so they never over-count. Door openings are not in our data: check the rear and side door apertures before relying on a count. Goods stacked on a pallet can stand up to about 1,247mm tall, allowing 150mm for the pallet itself.

Could you go electric?

How this van compares with Peugeot E-Expert Panel Van M Electric 136hp Automatic Professional (75kWh), the same body with the other powertrain, for a typical working day.

Overnight charging

Electric could work: check the points below

  • Range. 100 miles a day sits comfortably inside a planning range of about 136 miles, so an overnight charge covers the day.
  • Payload. The electric version carries 116kg less (1,210kg against 1,326kg).
  • Towing. Braked towing: 1,000kg electric, 2,500kg diesel.
  • Energy. Charging at a small-business depot costs about 10.2p a mile against 18.4p for diesel: roughly £2,050 a year less at 25,000 miles.
  • Price. The electric version lists for £5,155 more after the £5,000 zero emission van and truck grant, which the energy saving covers in about 2.5 years.

When the diesel is the more practical choice

  • Loads that use the last 116kg of the diesel's payload.
  • Towing more than 1,000kg.
How this is worked out
  • Planning range is 70% of the official 194-mile WLTP figure, allowing for winter weather and a full load.
  • Energy use 0.356 kWh a mile: the usable battery divided by the official range.
  • Diesel 165.48p a litre excluding VAT (DESNZ, week of 2 November 2026); the Peugeot Expert Panel Van M Diesel 150hp Manual Professional's official 40.9mpg.
  • Electricity: 28.59p/kWh at a small-business depot (DESNZ, excluding VAT), 26.32p at home as the driver pays (Ofgem price cap), 65.83p on public rapid chargers (Zapmap, excluding VAT).
  • 250 working days a year. List prices exclude VAT and options; running costs exclude servicing, insurance, tax and residual values.

Supports: load length (at floor), load width (maximum), load width between wheel arches, load height (maximum), overall length, overall width (excluding mirrors), overall height. page 22, page heading "PEUGEOT EXPERT | DIMENSIONS"; table "INTERIOR DIMENSIONS – PANEL VAN"; MEDIUM column (read visually from the rendered page). Floor length WITHOUT the load-through bulkhead; the same table gives 3674 / 4026 'with load-through bulkhead open' and 2185 / 2535 at mid-height (not used). Page footnote: load length at floor along the centre can be reduced by the rear door locking mechanism (approx. 50mm). Body mapping: the price list names the versions 'EXPERT Panel Van M / Crew Van M' and the dimension tables head the columns MEDIUM/LONG (overall length 4980 < 5331), so M = MEDIUM.
