Choose the Relay if...
The Relay covers the same broad range of lengths, heights and GVWs as its Boxer sibling, and is chosen by UK fleets on similar terms: load volume and conversion flexibility over brand cachet.
Ranges are as published on Citroen's UK model page and are not broken down there by individual L/H/GVW combination; treat the figures as the spread across the range rather than a single variant.
Full specifications →Choose the Master if...
The Master's twin-rear-wheel derivatives at 3,500-4,500 kg GVW give it some of the highest payloads in its class, and its towing capacity of up to 3.5 tonnes suits trades that also pull a trailer.
Payload ranges reflect FWD diesel derivatives across trims and drivetrains at each length/height; the E-Tech electric Master and 4.5t twin-wheel derivatives are quoted separately by Renault.
