Exterior Design: Modern and Dynamic
The C5 Aircross features a contemporary SUV design with soft, flowing lines and distinctive Citroën styling cues. Its assertive front end, characterised by a bold grille and sleek LED headlights, gives it a strong road presence. The body is complemented by 18-inch diamond-cut 'Pulsar' alloy wheels and a Glossy Black colour pack, adding to its modern appeal. The SUV's dimensions provide a balanced stance, ensuring both agility in urban settings and stability on longer journeys.
Interior: Spacious and Comfortable
Step inside, and the C5 Aircross welcomes occupants with a spacious and versatile cabin. The interior boasts a generous boot space of 580 litres, expanding to 1,630 litres with all rear seats folded, accommodating various cargo needs. The rear seats are individually adjustable and feature a sliding function, allowing for flexible configurations between passenger space and boot capacity.
The cabin is designed with comfort in mind, featuring Advanced Comfort Seats and Suspension. These seats provide excellent support, making long drives more enjoyable. The soft suspension, equipped with Progressive Hydraulic Cushions®, absorbs road imperfections effectively, delivering a "flying carpet" effect that enhances ride comfort
Technology and Infotainment
The C5 Aircross is equipped with a 10-inch touchscreen display that supports both Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto, ensuring seamless smartphone integration. Features like Speed Limit Sign Recognition and Active Safety Brake contribute to a safer driving experience. However, some users may find the infotainment system's interface less intuitive compared to competitors, requiring a learning curve to operate effectively
Performance and Efficiency
Under the bonnet, the C5 Aircross offers two primary powertrains:
- Hybrid 136hp: This variant combines a 136hp petrol engine with a 21kW electric motor and a 48V battery. Notably, there's no need to plug in, as the system recharges itself during driving. This setup allows for up to 50% of city journeys to be made in electric mode, offering lower fuel consumption and reduced CO₂ emissions.
- Diesel 130hp: The diesel option delivers robust performance suitable for longer drives and varying terrains. Both powertrains are mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, providing smooth gear shifts and responsive acceleration.
