Is this unusual for this model?
| Compared with | What it says |
|---|---|
| Every car in the data | 1.2% of tests record it — this model is 2.4× that share |
| The 310 models compared | 13 of 310, highest first |
| The model's own record | 696,815 tests · every year of the Berlingo → |
A share of tests is not a probability for your car: it counts every Citroen Berlingo tested, whatever its mileage, service history and use. The like-for-like comparison on the model page is the fairer number.
