Mercedes-Benz Citan van wins "Most Popular van" at this year’s Honestjohn.co.uk Awards

The new Mercedes-Benz Citan van, billed as the "new urban hero", has had a successful start for having only just gone on sale since March 2013. The compact city van has already won its first UK award at this year’s Honestjohn.co.uk Awards as Most Popular Van.

The Honestjohn.co.uk Awards are voted for by users of the website. Honest John's website, founded in the year 2000, gives honest, trustworthy and independent advice to road users. He also writes an Award-winning agony column in the Daily Telegraph's Saturday Motoring section.

Dan Harrison, Editor of honestjohn.co.uk said: “Honest John Vans was only launched in February 2013, but it's already proved a huge success, exceeding expectations when it comes to website traffic. Like the main site, it's centred around useful and user-friendly reviews which give potential buyers all the key information they need. The review which has stood head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to our users is the new Citan. This is the first ever small van from Mercedes-Benz and it feels a cut above the competition in terms of quality and refinement. It's proved very popular on the site and with the new Sprinter coming soon it looks to be a busy year for Mercedes-Benz vans.”

The Citan van is available in three model variants – the Citan Panel Van, the Citan Crewbus and the Citan Mixto and is available in a range of lengths and weight variants. Plus, its efficient diesel engines are available in three power outputs – 75hp, 90hp, 110hp with BlueEFFICIENCY technology as standard.

Congratulations to Mercedes-Benz on the first of many UK awards for their heroic compact Citan van.
