Where each one leads
Nissan Micra
Ahead on none of the like-for-like measures.
Škoda Citigo
- Against cars of the same age, the Škoda Citigo comes out better at its first MOT test (passes 7% more often than average) than the Nissan Micra (passes 2% less often than average).
- Fewer Škoda Citigo cars in the Netherlands carry an illogical odometer record (1.8% against 2.9%).
- New Škoda Citigo cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 4 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 124 for the Nissan Micra in 2022.
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
