Citroen’s new C5 X is hard to pin down in terms of shape. But what we can tell you is that it’ll be comfortable, well-equipped and spacious. We also expect it to start at around £30,000, with the first deliveries predicted towards the end of 2021/early 2022. Citroen recently made its official land in India with the debut of C5 Aircross SUV. Must have software for new mac. The French manufacturer has now revealed an extension of the SUV in a completely different form. The new C5X is a.
Halo for mac os. The Citroen C5 will take the form of a fastback crossover, as depicted in these images by our spy photographer sources, leaving behind the three-box sedan shape from the last decade.
Citroen Crossover C5
Here, the lifted form of the next-generation C5 will be underpinned by the Groupe PSA EMP2 platform that also forms the basis of the Peugeot 508. Specific details are thin on the ground for now, though the sharing of the EMP2 platform means that the forthcoming C5 will enable the use of plug-in hybrid variants.

The most powerful currently on sale from the automaker group currently powers the 508 PSE with 360 hp and 520 Nm of torque from a 200 PS/300 Nm 1.6 litre direct-injection turbo petrol engine, mated with a front and a rear electric motor making 110 hp/320 Nm and 113 hp/166 Nm, respectively.
In 2018, Citroen said that it would ‘revitalise’ the saloon styling of next-generation C5. These spy images revealed the overall silhouette of the forthcoming model, though the finer details could possibly come from the CXperience concept.
While interior details have yet to be revealed, we could have an educated guess as to what it might not have. The design study was to show that the automaker could execute a large vehicle design without traditional cues such as leather, wood and chrome, said Citroen product director, Xavier Peugeot at the time.
Though camouflage foil still covers most of the car, the body panels and lights on the forthcoming C5 appear largely to be in production form, and thus our spy photographer sources estimate that the fastback crossover successor to the outgoing sedan may debut towards the end of April.
As many of you have already noticed, the mid-size sedan market has been eaten up by crossovers and SUVs of all types and sizes, not to mention that traditional French sedans have always had a tough time competing against their German counterparts.
Even Ford has decided to kill the future of the Mondeo sedan and replace it with a crossover-looking hatchback tentatively wearing the Mondeo Evos nameplate.
Following a similar path, it looks like the next generation of the Citroën C5 will have almost nothing in common with any of its predecessors, as spy photographers have caught the first pre-production prototype of the model while being road-tested in Europe.
The model is highly camouflaged, but the overall proportions are definitely those of an elongated C4, which has also switched from being a traditional-looking compact hatchback to having a crossover/SUV look.
Despite the rather high ground clearance, the 2023 Citroën C5 is not expected to feature all-wheel-drive on most of its versions, and the Citroën-famous pneumatic suspension might not make an appearance either.
A host of 1.2-, and 1.6-liter gasoline engines with various outputs and even a plug-in hybrid version should comprise the gasoline lineup, while diesel lovers will have to suffice with a choice between a 1.5-liter and a 2.0-liter.
An all-electric e-C5 is also expected to be in the works, but don’t expect a Tesla-level of performance or range, with Citroën being more focused on comfort and a quirky design.
With Citroën now part of Stellantis, which includes FCA, the arrival of the new C5 might also signal the re-launch of the Citroën brand in the United States, but this is all speculation at this point.
