Compare the Citroen e-C5 Aircross vs Citroen C5 Aircross
AI generated from our expert reviews
Choosing between the Citroen C5 Aircross and the all-electric Citroen e-C5 Aircross comes down to subtle differences in everyday driving. In town, the hybrid C5 Aircross is a smidge better at absorbing blows than the electric model. Once you are cruising on the motorway, both cabins are well insulated against wind and tyre roar, though over-the-shoulder visibility could be better in each car. On twisty country lanes, neither car is built for spirited cornering, as their soft suspension can leave both feeling unsettled over rough or bumpy surfaces. Inside, both provide plenty of space for three adults to sit comfortably in the back, complete with reclining backrests. The cabins feature smart fabric trims, though each suffers from hard interior plastics on parts of the doors and consoles.
