Is this unusual for this model?
| Compared with | What it says |
|---|---|
| Every car in the data | 1.1% of tests record it — this model is 4.6× that share |
| The 257 models compared | 22 of 257, highest first |
| The model's own record | 180,027 tests · every year of the Dispatch → |
A share of tests is not a probability for your car: it counts every Citroen Dispatch tested, whatever its mileage, service history and use. The like-for-like comparison on the model page is the fairer number.
