Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.
Europe
Charging an EV in Europe differs by country. Some European countries primarily use 1-phase connections to the grid, while other countries are almost exclusively using a 3-phase connection. The table below shows all possible ways the Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh can be charged, but some modes of charging might not be widely available in certain countries.

Fast Charging (10 -> 80%)
Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh.

About this Vehicle
Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh Overview
The Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh positions itself as a practical, budget-friendly electric MPV in the EV market, ideal for families, shuttles, or large groups needing spacious transport without premium pricing. This front-wheel-drive people carrier seats up to nine passengers in its cavernous cabin, measuring around 4.96 meters long for the M size, with flexible seating and cargo space expanding from 380 liters to over 3,000 liters when folded. Built on Citroen’s efficient e-CMP platform, it emphasizes comfort, durability, and urban utility over sporty thrills, featuring a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor and robust interior materials suited for daily hauls.
Targeted at fleet operators, taxi services, and multi-passenger households, the Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh stands out in the electric vehicle range for its massive capacity in a segment dominated by smaller SUVs. Key distinguishing features include advanced regenerative braking modes, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto infotainment, and a focus on smooth city driving. In the evolving EV specs landscape, this Citroen electric MPV matters as an accessible entry for zero-emission group travel, bridging the gap between vans like the e-Dispatch and luxury options, though its discontinuation after 2024 underscores the shift toward longer-range models.
Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh Performance and Driving Experience
The Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh delivers relaxed, comfortable performance tailored for urban and suburban duties rather than high-speed excitement. Its 100 kW (136 hp) front-mounted electric motor produces 260 Nm (192 lb-ft) of instant torque, achieving 0-100 km/h in 13.3 seconds with a top speed of 130 km/h (81 mph). Drive modes—Eco (60 kW), Normal (80 kW), and Power (full 100 kW)—allow tailoring for efficiency or overtaking, while a ‘B’ mode enhances regenerative braking for one-pedal driving. Real-world impressions highlight a soft, refined ride, quiet cabin, and predictable handling, making it superior to diesel equivalents for shuttling nine passengers smoothly, though acceleration feels leisurely like a “dead horse” under heavy load.

Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh Range and Battery Specifications
Equipped with a 50 kWh nominal (46.3 kWh usable) lithium-ion battery, the Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh offers a WLTP range of up to 348 km (216 miles) for the M size in ideal conditions, though real-world range typically falls to 175-195 km (109-121 miles) due to its boxy shape and passenger load. Efficiency averages 2.53 mi/kWh (around 180 Wh/km), impacted by cold weather (dropping to 195 km city cold), highway speeds, or full seating. Factors like aggressive driving or terrain reduce it further, prioritizing city school runs over long hauls.
Citroen e-SpaceTourer M 50 kWh battery specs shine in urban efficiency, but the smaller pack limits versatility compared to the 75 kWh long-range variant.
