Citroën UK has revealed strong sales figures for the 2019 in the combined Light and Heavy Commercial vehicle market. Against a market that was up 2.3% compared to 2018, Citroën UK has shown above market volume growth of 7.3% in the same period.

The French marque's strong performance in 2019 can be attributed to a number of factors, be it the brand's readiness for the WLTP standards that came into effect on commercial vehicles in September 2019, or the strength of the multi-award winning Citroën product offering.
