I'm not impressed with the Picasso by comparison. Although I love the look of them, they're less spacious, not significantly better to drive, and based on the used examples I saw, the interior seems less durable. Plus they're more expensive.
So for the main use of these vehicles - lugging loads of people, animals and stuff around in reasonable economy and comfort, the Berlingo seems the better car.
I'd say the same for the Kangoo vs Scenic as well...
I looked at every MPV going and picked the Berlingo as it seemed better, not just out of cost considerations. The only similar type of vehicle that would get me out of it is a VW T5, cause like the Berlingo you can't beat the space for the footprint on the road.
