Citroën kicks off sales of the new C5 Aircross, with prices already revealed

Citroën unveiled its redesigned SUV for the C segment, the C5 Aircross, at the end of last April, a model the French brand highlights for its versatility thanks to its various engine options, along with an eye-catching design and a range of technologies for both the interior and safety and driver assistance. A few months later, Citroën is now kicking off sales of the C5 Aircross in Spain, revealing its equipment and prices.

Let us recall that the C5 Aircross is based on Stellantis’ STLA Medium platform, which has allowed it to grow in size compared to its predecessor, as expected, and now measures 4,652 mm in length (+150 mm) and 1,902 mm in width. Its bodywork now features more expressive, sharper lines in line with the brand’s new design language, which also translates into new light signatures and the inclusion of the brand’s new logo. From the side, Citroën’s work on aerodynamics is evident, and at the rear, it has sought to give the car continuity with the front design.

For the interior of the Citroën C5 Aircross, the brand wanted occupants to feel as if they were in their own living room. To achieve this, it has adopted a wide, horizontal dashboard design that resembles a piece of furniture, along with fabrics that provide a feeling of warmth and comfort. That comfort is also noticeable in the rear seats thanks to their larger size, with rear-row headroom increased by 68 mm, while the boot, regardless of engine, offers a generous 651 litres of capacity.
