Skoda Citigo review – small on size, big on quality - MPG and runnings costs

Not a true thriller, but a competent car in which some fun can be had.

Evo rating
RRP
from £8,860
  • Well-screwed together, lightweight
  • Long gearing

MPG and runnings costs 

Even the least fuel efficient variants, in the shape of the 59bhp manual and 74bhp automatic, achieve returns of 64.2mpg on a combined cycle. The leanest runner is the 74bhp manual model, that returns 68.9mpg on combined cycle.

All the models fall into two VED brackets, although the difference of £25 between the dirtiest and cleanest models is unlikely to influence you one way or the other. Service intervals are every 10,000 miles and the Citigo should be light on consumables.
