Review of Peugeot Partner Tepee 1.6 16v (2012)


Home » Repair Partner » Dimensions and equipment of Peugeot Partner 668

The Peugeot Partner utility vehicle has been produced since 1997. The distinctive features of the car are the size of the large trunk, carrying capacity and spacious interior. The very first generation was produced unchanged for six years without losing popularity.

Restyling was carried out in 2002. The layout and body remained the same. Changes affected the front fenders, bumper and headlights. They enlarged the wings and rear mirrors, used the latest advances in the form of cruise control, adaptive amplifier, air conditioning, lighting, and so on. In terms of equipment, this year's Peugeot Partner is significantly superior to its predecessor, even in the basic configuration. Models were offered with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, with a carrying capacity of 600 to 800 kilograms and a capacity of 2 to 5 passengers.

In 2004, a new model was released. The steering wheel rim is softer, the steering wheel itself is reduced in size, the console and dashboard have been changed. In expensive models, the panel upholstery combines two colors; in the center there is an audio system and a clock, on which information is displayed upon startup. When the engine starts, the central display displays information about the oil level and the remaining mileage until the next service. Traditional levers work well with the audio and cruise control remote controls. We increased the space for storing items, added a drawer, a hiding place, an outlet (12V), drink holders, and an ashtray.

The next update took place in 2008. The car differs significantly from its predecessors not only in size, but also in technical characteristics, noise insulation has been improved, and the capabilities of the standard equipment have been expanded. In 2013, restyling was carried out again, in which only the best characteristics of the car were collected. We worked on the driving characteristics and increased the size again. The latest model was presented in 2020.

  • The available power units are 1.6 HDi diesel with 120, 100 and 75 hp. with the Blue prefix, which means increased efficiency.

Exterior of Peugeot Partner Tepee 2020

Externally, the model will remain completely recognizable, but will receive modifications to the front. The presentation of the Peugeot Partner 2020 will take place before the end of 2020, and the commercial vehicle will go on sale next year. The interior of the Partner Tipi did not bring any revolutions either. Its style and architecture remained intact. Innovations include an expanded selection of upholstery options and an upgraded multimedia-navigation complex, the touch screen of which has become larger. The Peugeot Partner, as before, is built on a platform with McPherson struts in the front suspension and a torsion beam at the rear. The engineers of the French company installed brake mechanisms with ventilated discs with a diameter of 283 mm on the front wheels, and with discs with a diameter of 268 mm on the rear wheels.

But more importantly from a practicality point of view, the luggage compartment volume of a compact van can vary from 642 to 2400 liters. The engine range of the Peugeot Partner Tepee has changed insignificantly after the restyling of the model. It, as before, contains both petrol and diesel units. In the first case, it is a 1.6-liter engine producing 90 hp. With. power and 132 Nm of torque, and in the second - 1.6-liter engines with power from 75 to 120 horsepower. In addition, at the beginning of 2020, the French have planned to expand the range with a 3-cylinder 110-horsepower engine, which, by the way, is destined to become the most economical. As for gearboxes, the most powerful, 120-horsepower engine is paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox, while all others have a 5-speed manual transmission.

Interior of Peugeot Partner Tepee 2020

The driver's seating position in the cabin is high. He is given a good overview. This is facilitated by large rear-view mirrors. The rear side doors can be opened from both sides. This makes it easier to get inside the car. The car has small dimensions, but the interior dimensions are impressive. This is confirmed by reviews from owners. The photo is below. The trunk volume of the restyled version of the car is large. If you need to transport a large amount of cargo, you can remove the rear row of seats. Depending on your needs, you can remove one, two or three chairs at the same time. The trunk size will be 654 liters. This Peugeot Partner can be bought with mileage. The rear seats can be easily removed. Therefore, the transformation of the interior can be carried out quickly, without any effort. The trunk has a box above the door for storing small items. Access is possible from the interior and from the outside of the car.

Design features

Peugeot Partner immediately became a great success. Today there are a sufficient number of offers on the secondary market. Among them are passenger, universal, cargo and even off-road versions. The first option is made with an emphasis on comfort. The universal modification can be used for business and work on weekdays, and on weekends it can act as a car for personal and family needs. The cargo model offers only a 2-seat interior and a 3 m3 cargo compartment. Other modifications have a trunk with a capacity of 624-664 liters.

The car's interior will delight passengers with a large number of different compartments for small items and spaciousness. Even passengers in the rear seats, accessible through the large sliding side doors, will not feel at a disadvantage. They can be on one or both sides of the car. Many examples do not have a sliding side door on the left.

However, in the samples of the first years of production, sliding doors were not offered. It was possible to get to the back row only through the reclined back of the front seat, which caused serious inconvenience.

An important stage in the life of the first generation Peugeot Partner was 2003, when a restyled version of the model entered the market. The rejuvenation affected not only the appearance (the headlights increased in size), but also the interior decoration. The new front panel has become more convenient. The range of equipment has also expanded.

Access to the cargo compartment is either through the rear hatch, which folds upward, or through the hinged doors. The second option is most common.

The engine has the traction to easily overtake on the highway. If you drive the car carefully, you will not hear the engine inside the cabin. The disadvantages of the Peugeot Partner, judging by the reviews of the owners, include the fact that during acceleration the car’s steering wheel rattles a little. But this disappears when the car picks up speed. technical specifications You can buy a Peugeot Partner only with a manual transmission.

This is a box that has five gears. Peugeot partner not available with automatic. The lever travel is large, but it itself is located on an elevation, and therefore it will take little time and effort to change gears. Reviews of the Peugeot Partner indicate that it is inconvenient to drive in the car in winter shoes, since the distance between the pedals is small. If in appearance the car resembles a commercial vehicle, then it is as easy to drive as a station wagon, for example, the Peugeot 308, on the basis of which the car is based. Therefore, the technical characteristics of the Peugeot Partner are not very different. The maximum speed of the car is 160 kilometers. It can accelerate to hundreds in 14 seconds. The recommended maintenance frequency is 10,000 kilometers. Manufacturer's warranty – 2 years.

Safety and comfort in Peugeot Partner

Three innovative systems developed by Peugeot engineers are responsible for the comfort and safety of using the car:

  • "Easy start on the rise." This system keeps the vehicle on a road surface with a slope greater than 5% for several seconds, regardless of the direction in which it is moving. This time is enough for the driver to have time to release the brake and squeeze the gas without the risk of rolling down.
  • "Cruise control". This system maintains the speed set by the driver. For greater safety and reduced fuel consumption, the vehicle's cruise control can be programmed to the maximum permitted speed.
  • "Audio-visual parking sensors." This system ensures safe parking by accurately and timely detecting even small obstacles.

Peugeot Partner Tepee 2020 salon photo

Inside, after restyling, almost nothing has changed in the model. This is not surprising, because there was no generational change. In addition, the modification of the car’s interior took place not so long ago; therefore, improving the interior is not necessary. The driver, getting into the car, immediately grabs the comfortable steering wheel. There are no unnecessary or superfluous buttons on it, and there is nothing left on it at all, except for the horn. Behind the steering wheel there is an interesting instrument panel with bright lighting. The center console is very fresh. Now it has a multimedia system, which is also equipped with a large diagonal monitor. Thanks to it, it became possible to manage a large number of additional functions.

Next to this monitor there are interesting air vents, as well as buttons for controlling the climate control system and other additional functions. The front row of seats in the Peugeot Partner 2020, as well as the back row, amazes with its comfort and softness. Everything is done very high quality and conscientiously. All this is done to ensure that passengers feel as comfortable as possible inside the car. The rear row of seats can be folded and even removed. Thanks to this, the new product creates a huge amount of free space in the luggage compartment. The trunk is large, even for a minivan body, and the van has even more substantial cargo space.

Is there an alternative to Berlingo/Partner.

andreymih ,

I tried to sell my “not firewood” in the spring and half the summer. The price tag for my configuration (maximum Spanish diesel) is more than 600 thousand in showrooms. I set an incomplete 4-year-old car with low mileage (83,000 - I really don’t drive it much and only around the city :pardon:) at 350, then at 300. Time passed, the mileage increased. Finished the sale for 90,000 and 280 rubles. In my first post here I wrote about “the secondary market is dead” - in 5 months, 6 calls from showrooms about “would you like to supply us?”, and a couple of dubious clients who discovered that in the February assembly the hinges and glass were marked “11.07” :crazy: . As a result, it was withdrawn from auction and will go to the salon in September for 240 thousand (after that it will cost them a hundred more) :spiteful:

Typical questions from “buyers”:

- Didn’t you carry any cargo?

- No, I couriered documents and carried diapers in the evenings at hack jobs. It's the volume that matters, not the weight.

(they consider me a moron - why? Yes, because there is an office Gazelle parked nearby in the parking lot, am I an idiot for carrying office crap in my car? :shok: )

— Are there any stamps in the service book?

- no, I even refused the warranty from the officials :bye: Do you need a car or fake stamps in the book? If necessary, I’ll go to a friend’s place and get it stamped, no problem

(at the other end they fall silent)

— why are you selling?

(Well, why isn’t he an idiot calling? - the Russians have it written in plain English in the announcement: due to the growth of the family! :blink: Some guys at first spend big money :sorry: and then start a family, and she’s not alone - with a child 4 -x years (as it turned out a little later) :blush: So, should I now give up family life because the car is too small? The child grew and grew - now she is 8 - there are only 2 seats... before that she rode on my lap, now they won’t fit already :sorry: Selling a diesel engine with such mileage and in such a condition - I understand that it’s idiocy, but what should I do??? :dntknw: )

In the evening I go home - mine calls and asks to pick them up - I fly back to the office, take a car, and in the morning the boss calls and asks to pick up 3 cubes of gaskets. Like someone implored, I fly to the office - change cars, and in the evening - everything is done all over again. I'm tired of this leapfrog, I want peace - so that three people climb and no one gets hemorrhoids from this.

How did it end? Nothing! :angry:

Mlyn, what a sad essay it turned out...

Let me add some humor:

— Tell me, are you selling exactly the car in the photo? :megashok:

(- No, damn it, I took a picture of my neighbor’s, and mine is not white, but green, all rotten, beaten to death and barely breathing! :spiteful: )

— We are from Vyborg, could you come to us (180 km :spiteful: ), we would look at the car and IF we like it, we might buy it!

(I am not printing the comment because it is unprintable about the level of intelligence of the caller: blush2: )

Price Peugeot Partner Tipi 2020

It’s a pleasant fact that after the restyling, the price tags for the new product changed very modestly. But the truth is that this only applies to the Peugeot Partner 2020 in the back of a minivan. Now this car costs from 600,000 rubles in the minimum version. In a more expensive configuration and with a different power plant, the model from France costs from 700,000 rubles. Unfortunately, the exchange rate in Russia is now very unstable, so this may negatively affect the cost of the new item. One can fully assume that this car will cost much more than, for example, two years ago. And this is not at all due to the update.

Typical problems and malfunctions

When purchasing a Peugeot Partner, you should pay attention to the condition of the rear axle - most often wheel bearings are rented (from 2,000 rubles, complete with hub). If the rear wheels are stacked (A), then the rear beam needs investment. As a rule, this happens after 200,000 km.

On the front axle, the anti-roll bar strut and bushing periodically require replacement (about 1000 and 800 rubles per pair, respectively). Over time, the support bearings of the front struts begin to knock (about 600 rubles for one). You rarely have to deal with wear on ball joints. The design provides for their replacement - 600 rubles apiece.

You should also check the operation of the power steering, which sometimes fails. You will have to pay at least 20,000 rubles for a new pump. There are malfunctions in the operation of electrical equipment, especially in restyled versions. For example, the steering column switches stop functioning. Eliminating the defect will require large investments - from 20,000 rubles for a new unit.

Problems can also arise with sliding doors. Sand gets into the guides, the sliding mechanism wears out and the doors jam. Problems with doors also arise after repairing body damage resulting from an accident.

Intensive use on most copies leaves an indelible mark.

Exterior of Peugeot Partner Tipi 2020 photo

Let’s say right away that outwardly the car began to look much better than its predecessor. Although the restyling is not global, the designers paid serious attention to external aspects. For the exterior alone, I already want to praise the French. Photo of Peugeot Partner Tipi 2020 from the front The front part is the most modified component of the car. After all, here we see a completely new false radiator grille, a different front bumper, and modernized optics. In general, I would like to talk about headlights in more detail. The head optics are housed in an unusually shaped housing, adding sophistication to the front end of the car. The front bumper along the edges received special sections similar to air ducts. They are, in fact, a decoy, since these sections house compact round fog lights, and right above them are horizontal LED strips that act as daytime running lights. This architecture makes it possible to provide a very attractive “face” to the car.

Peugeot Partner Tepee 2020 configurations

Official dealers in Russia sell “Partner Tipi” in Active and Outdoor versions. The price of the basic version of the minivan in the Active configuration is 1,198,000 rubles. You can buy a new “Teepi” in a comfortable Outdoor version for 1,270,000 rubles. Car dealerships in Moscow offer minivans only with boosted gasoline engines (120 hp), preferring not to import the basic Access version with a conventional aspirated engine (98 hp). Diesel versions of the minivan are also not available. A limited set of basic equipment includes ABS/AFU electronic assistants, two front airbags, electric windows, LED running lights, and central locking. In top trim levels, the following are added to the set of options: independent rear seats; ceiling console; fog lights; roof rails; automatic control of the climate control system; a roof with a panoramic view; height adjustment of the driver's seat; restrictive cruise control; rear parking sensors.
