Petrol engines from 2018 onward meet Euro 6 standards with the help of a GPF (Gasoline Particulate Filter) in direct-injection versions. Small turbo petrol engines such as VW's 1.0 TSI, Ford's 1.0 EcoBoost and PSA's 1.2 PureTech often deliver fuel consumption below 6 litres per 100 km with solid driving dynamics. Maintenance is simpler than with diesel engines — there is no DPF filter, EGR valve or AdBlue system.
Check the service history and proof of regular oil changes, as small turbo petrol engines are sensitive to oil quality and maintenance intervals. For engines with a timing chain, listen for unusual noises at startup, especially on some EcoBoost variants. Oil consumption is also worth checking. Ask for documentation of any spark plug and ignition coil replacements.
Petrol vehicles from 2018 and newer are most common in the compact and SUV segments. Among the most sought-after are VW Golf and Polo, Škoda Octavia, Toyota Yaris and Corolla, Hyundai i20 and Tucson, as well as Renault Clio and Captur. For drivers covering up to 15,000 km a year, newer petrol vehicles are a practical choice thanks to lower maintenance costs compared with diesel models.
Most direct-injection petrol engines from 2018 onward have a GPF particulate filter to meet Euro 6d standards. The GPF is more reliable than a diesel DPF and usually does not cause problems during normal use.
Small turbo petrol engines (1.0–1.2 L) average 5–7 litres per 100 km in combined driving. Models with 1.4–1.6 L engines use 6–8 litres, while more powerful engines (2.0 L and above) consume 7–10 litres per 100 km depending on driving style.
In general, yes, but they require regular oil changes at shorter intervals than older petrol cars, especially turbocharged engines. High-quality oil and strict adherence to the service schedule are key to long-term reliability.
