I no longer needed a Chelsea Tractor. The Citigo has enough features, is not over complicated, it is easy to drive , comfortable and economical. This is my fourth Skoda ( each a different model ). Need I say no more ?

Skoda Citigo (2012-2020) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Better value than a VW Up | Interior not as posh as VW Up's |
| Fun yet comfortable to drive | Equipment can feel a little basic |
| Cheap to run | Limited performance |
Quick Summary
The Skoda Citigo (2012-2020) is a practical, fun, and affordable city car that represents excellent value in the small car segment. Available in both three- and five-door variants, it offers surprising spaciousness with a 251-litre boot and comfortable seating for four adults. The light steering and responsive handling make it a joy to drive in urban environments, whilst the 1.0-litre petrol engine delivers willing performance around town. Safety is impressive with a five-star Euro NCAP rating, autonomous emergency braking, and six airbags as standard.
Running costs are exceptionally low, with fuel economy of 45-50mpg, minimal insurance premiums (groups 2-4), and free road tax for pre-2017 models. The later electric Citigo-e iV variant offers pure electric motoring with up to 161 miles of range and rapid charging capability, though used prices remain high. Avoid the basic S trim with its spartan interior; the SE and Elegance trims offer better value with air-conditioning, alloy wheels, and heated seats. As a used buy, the Citigo is one of the best small cars available, offering reliability, practicality, and affordability that rivals struggle to match.
Best for: Budget-conscious buyers seeking a practical, fun, and economical city car; first-time buyers; and those interested in affordable electric motoring (Citigo-e iV).
Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising premium interior quality (like a VW Up), those needing high performance, or drivers requiring a three-person rear bench seat.

| Toyota Yaris | 4/5 | 4.7/5 | 35.1% | 4.5/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the Citigo if: You're on a budget seeking a practical, fun, and economical city car; you're a first-time buyer; or you're interested in affordable electric motoring with the Citigo-e iV.
Consider alternatives if: You prioritise premium interior quality, require high performance, or need a three-person rear bench seat.
Competitive Position: The Skoda Citigo (2012-2020) is one of the best small cars available, offering exceptional value and practicality. Whilst the Toyota Aygo and Hyundai i10 score slightly higher on overall CarGurus ratings, the Citigo's superior expert rating and lower average price make it the most compelling choice for budget-conscious buyers. It outperforms rivals on affordability without compromising on comfort, safety, or driving enjoyment. The electric Citigo-e iV variant also provides an innovative, future-proof option for those with suitable charging infrastructure.
