It has five seats,
a generous load capacity of 884 litres and compact dimensions making it
ideal for busy urban areas. Also, with its low emissions it benefits
from a vehicle excise duty of just £35 and combined fuel consumption of
62.8 mpg with the 1.4 litre HDi 70 bhp diesel engine.

With an overall
length of 3.959 metres and a width of 1.684 metres or 1.816 metres with
the door mirrors folded, it is clearly designed for urban driving where
ease of driving and practicality are a necessity. Its height of 1.72
metres or 1.78 metres with roof bars also ensures trouble-free access to
underground car parks.
The load area has a
capacity of 356 litres under the rear parcel shelf which can be expanded
to 884 litres with the 60 / 40 split rear bench seat folded or 2.5m3
with the rear seat removed. The rear load space is also very easily
accessed under all circumstances, thanks to the two sliding side doors
or, indeed, the glazed rear tailgate. Even the narrowest of parking
places won’t prevent you getting into the car or gaining access to
objects stored in the boot.
The Bipper Tepee
has been designed with urban driving in mind. To carry out any manoeuvre
in complete safety in urban traffic, large door mirrors are provided.
They can be adjusted electrically and are heated in conjunction with the
heated rear screen de-misting function. To assist in tricky parking
manoeuvres an optional rear parking assistance system is available. For
passenger convenience, one-touch electric front windows are fitted as
standard and manual air-conditioning is available either as standard or
as an option.
The Bipper Tepee is
fitted as standard with a Radio / CD player with MP3 compatibility. An
optional hands-free phone kit allows a Bluetooth® mobile phone to be
used inside the vehicle in complete safety.
To ensure the
Bipper Tepee is very easy to drive it has an optimised suspension and a
turning circle diameter of only 9.95 metres between kerbs. Hydraulic
power steering helps the driver to nip in and out of urban traffic and
makes it easier to access tight parking spots. ABS is fitted as standard
combined with ventilated front disc brakes and rear drum brakes.
The Bipper is
fitted as standard with 15” inch steel wheels and 185/65R15 tyres. The
spare wheel is located in the rear part of the floor and is a full size
spare wheel.
The Bipper Tepee is
available with two engine options, a 1.4 litre petrol engine and a 1.4
litre HDi diesel engine. Both engines ensure the vehicle has appropriate
performance levels while also reducing fuel consumption and ensuring the
lowest possible CO2 emissions.
The 1.4 litre
petrol engine is fitted with a 5-speed manual gearbox: the 1.4 litre HDi
diesel engine is available with either a conventional 5 speed manual
gearbox or electronically controlled 5 speed manual gearbox, perfect for
use in busy urban areas. Based on the standard manual gearbox, it uses
an electro-hydraulic control system which ensures smooth and flexible
gear changes and allows the driver to select either manual mode (gear
changes controlled by the driver via the gear lever), or automatic mode
(no gear changes carried out by the driver).
The Bipper Tepee is
also a safe environment for all its occupants due to the comprehensive
range of secondary safety equipment which compliments the specially
reinforced structure.
