Citigo stop/start economy

$

Anyone any idea on how long the engine needs to be off using the stop/start system to make up for the extra fuel used to start the engine again? Is it always better even if just for a few seconds? Or does the engine need to be stopped for 10 seconds/15 seconds etc to make it worthwhile. I. E. How much fuel does it use when you restart the car from after its cut out using the stop/start system and compare that to how much fuel is used when stopped and idling?

Hope that makes sense, just something I was pondering on after stopping at a lot of consecutive traffic lights the other day and each time the stop start system kicked in sometimes just for a few seconds before setting off again and i was just wondering how economical that really was?

Cheers

Martin
