New 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine is clean and frugal, but is it strong enough to fit in with family life and replace the need for diesel power? People carriers have traditionally been viewed as the white goods of the automotive world. While they're practical and serve a purpose, they are hardly a hedonistic indulgence.Thankfully, Citroën livened up the breed two years ago when it launched the strikingly stylish C4 Picasso, which in diesel form has been something of a hit.If you’re not a lover of diesel clatter, however, this new 1.2-litre Puretech petrol engine has been introduced to the line-up. It comes with a raspy three-cylinder engine and a turbocharger for a bit of extra oomph. And being part of the latest Puretech range it’s pretty clean, being Euro 6 compliant and capable of claimed combined fuel economy of 56.5mpg.
