The Citroen Jumpy II Multispace 2.0 HDi (136 hp) L2 DPF 9-Seat, produced between 2007 and 2010, represents a popular configuration within the second generation of Citroen’s versatile passenger van. Positioned as a mid-range offering in the Jumpy II Multispace lineup, this variant catered to families and businesses requiring substantial passenger capacity combined with the efficiency of a modern diesel engine. The “L2” designation indicates a longer wheelbase version, providing increased interior space and cargo flexibility. This model shared its platform with the Peugeot Expert and Fiat Scudo, a common practice within the PSA Group (now Stellantis) at the time, allowing for economies of scale and shared development costs.

Powertrain & Engine Architecture
The heart of the Jumpy II Multispace 2.0 HDi is the DW10BTED4 engine, a 1.997-liter, four-cylinder diesel engine. This engine, a staple of PSA/Stellantis vehicles for many years, utilizes a common rail direct injection system, delivering fuel at extremely high pressure for improved combustion efficiency and reduced emissions. The RHR engine code specifically denotes a version producing 136 horsepower at 4000 rpm and 320 Nm (236 lb-ft) of torque at 2000 rpm. A turbocharger with an intercooler is employed to boost power output. The engine features four valves per cylinder and a robust cast iron block, contributing to its durability. The 6-speed manual transmission was the standard offering, providing a good balance between fuel economy and drivability. The transmission’s gear ratios were tuned for maximizing torque delivery at lower speeds, suitable for carrying passengers and loads.
Driving Characteristics
The 136 hp 2.0 HDi engine, paired with the 6-speed manual transmission, provided adequate, though not exhilarating, performance for the Jumpy II Multispace. Acceleration from 0-60 mph took around 13.1 seconds, and top speed was approximately 105 mph. The engine’s strong low-end torque made it well-suited for everyday driving and hauling passengers. Compared to the more powerful 163 hp version of the 2.0 HDi, the 136 hp model offered a more economical driving experience, albeit with slightly slower acceleration. The manual transmission allowed for greater driver control, but required more driver involvement than an automatic. The longer wheelbase (L2) contributed to a comfortable ride, absorbing bumps effectively, but also resulted in a slightly larger turning radius.
Equipment & Trim Levels
The 9-seat configuration of this Jumpy II Multispace variant was its defining feature. Standard equipment typically included air conditioning, power steering, electric front windows, and a basic audio system. Higher trim levels offered options such as rear air conditioning, alloy wheels, parking sensors, and a more advanced infotainment system. Interior upholstery was typically cloth, with durable and practical materials used throughout the cabin. The flexible seating arrangement allowed for various configurations, with the rear seats capable of being folded, tumbled, or even removed entirely to maximize cargo space.
Chassis & Braking
The Jumpy II Multispace utilized a McPherson strut front suspension and a semi-independent beam rear suspension. This setup provided a good compromise between ride comfort and handling. Front brakes were ventilated discs, while rear brakes were solid discs. ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) was standard, enhancing safety during emergency braking. The steering was rack and pinion, providing precise and responsive control. The suspension was tuned to handle the vehicle’s weight and passenger load effectively, minimizing body roll during cornering.
Market Reception & Comparison
The Citroen Jumpy II Multispace 2.0 HDi (136 hp) L2 DPF 9-Seat was well-received in the European market as a practical and versatile people carrier. Critics praised its spacious interior, fuel efficiency, and robust diesel engine. Compared to petrol-powered alternatives, the HDi diesel offered significantly better fuel economy. The 136 hp version was often seen as a sweet spot in the lineup, offering a good balance between performance and running costs. The Peugeot Expert and Fiat Scudo, being mechanically similar, were direct competitors, often differing primarily in styling and brand perception.
Legacy
The DW10 engine family, including the DW10BTED4, has proven to be remarkably durable and reliable, provided it receives regular maintenance. The Jumpy II Multispace, and its Peugeot and Fiat counterparts, remain popular used vehicles today, valued for their practicality and affordability. Common maintenance issues include diesel particulate filter (DPF) clogging, particularly on vehicles used primarily for short journeys, and wear and tear on suspension components. However, with proper care, these vehicles can provide many years of reliable service. The Jumpy II Multispace established Citroen as a key player in the European minivan segment, and its legacy continues with the current generation Jumpy/SpaceTourer models.
