308 Used Skoda Citigo cars for sale

The Citigo has a surprising level of energy for such a small car. It feels stable with its firm grip on the road. It offers a composed and supple ride, which you'd normally expect only in a larger car. Its small size, combined with a refined build and suspension, make it a suitable vehicle for exciting manoeuvring around tight city streets and twisting B-roads.

The Citigo is as cheap to run as it is affordable to acquire, so running costs can be kept down. It has low insurance group ratings, affordable spare parts and fixed-price servicing. For fuel economy, even the most power-hungry engine in its lineup delivers a good range of around 47-59 mpg. The less powerful engines push between 64.5-78.6 mpg, which you can further increase by opting for the start/stop technology.

Anyone looking for a low-cost, small car to get around the town or daily commuting to work or school will find that the Skoda Citigo is a good option for them. It is also suitable for young drivers or first-time car owners because of its low speed, and it's also economical to maintain.

Although it is a small car, the Citigo is surprisingly roomy, a feature that even modern city cars often find challenging to overcome. It has sufficient space to comfortably seat 4 adult passengers, up to around 5 foot 9 inches. The front has a minimalistic dashboard that helps make it feel a bit more spacious and airy inside, too. Although passengers might struggle to get inside the rear seats of a 3-door trim, they'll find the ride is quite comfortable once inside, even on a long journey or the motorway.

Initially, Skoda offered an infotainment system only with top-trim vehicles. However, most drivers found them a bit overly complex to operate. In response, Skoda redesigned the dashboard-mounted Gamin-system and made it more user friendly. In 2017, Skoda joined up with Volkswagen to offer smartphone apps, turning your phone into an instant touchscreen control for the infotainment system. The app makes it very easy to use the infotainment system features, such as Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and satellite navigation.

The Euro NCAP crash-tested the Skoda Citigo and awarded it a 5-star rating in 2011. However, the rating dropped to 3 stars in 2019 due to stricter testing requirements. However, the Skoda Citigo has a range of standard safety equipment available, including 4 airbags. You can also get several optional safety features, like City Safe, an autonomous emergency braking system.

The SEAT Mii and the Volkswagen Up are the closest rivals to the Citigo, partly because both are sister cars built on the same underpinnings. Although similar in build, they do have slightly different physical appearances. VW also offers a petrol-powered turbo and electric motor in its lineup, which Skoda lacks. Besides these, nothing else is significantly different among the 3 related models.
