Citroën Umpikorinen (BB) – Finnish registry class for enclosed vans: four-cylinder engines from 1,360 to 2,800 cm³, 29 to 96 kW, gross weight up to 3,500 kg
This collective page gathers Citroën commercial vehicles listed in the Finnish Traficom vehicle register under the class "Umpikorinen (BB)" – the enclosed box body. The model designations follow the register's own logic: the digit before "ov" gives the number of doors, from two-door (2ov) to five-door versions (5ov), while the cubic-centimetre figure after it states the displacement of the engine fitted. Citroën thereby covers the van segment in Finland from the compact Berlingo to the large-volume Jumper.

The register lists 11 versions here with 29 to 96 kW, all with four-cylinder engines of 1,360 to 2,800 cm³ displacement. Kerb weights range from 1,130 to 2,180 kg, gross vehicle weight from 2,170 to 3,500 kg, lengths from 4,137 to 6,363 mm and widths from 1,724 to 2,050 mm.
With its wide power range from 29 to 96 kW, this collective page covers both small, light urban delivery vehicles and larger vans for long-distance transport; in Finland as elsewhere in northern Europe, such vans form the backbone of tradesmen's and delivery fleets.
When buying used, on these Citroën vans the condition of the sliding-door runners and load floor, particularly stressed by Finnish winters, matters, along with the mileage on the four-cylinder engines and the condition of the timing belts and turbocharger on the more powerful diesel variants; spare parts run through the regular Citroën dealer network.
