Five-door Škoda Citigo

Just a week after Volkswagen announced its five-door Up!, Škoda has done likewise and revealed a five-door version of the closely-related Citigo.

Compared to the three-door, the overall dimensions are unchanged, as is the engine line-up. That means buyers will be offered a 1.0 litre, three-cylinder petrol motor that’s available with either 59 bhp (44 kW / 60 PS) or 73 bhp (55 kW / 75 PS).

Although Citigo sales have already begun in the Czech Republic, other European markets aren’t due to get the car until mid-May.
