Citroen e-C5 Aircross in Keighley West Yorkshire, Blackburn & Preston Lancashire, Harrogate North Yorkshire

The Citroen e-C5 Aircross is the French automaker's flagship fully electric family SUV, built on Stellantis's STLA Medium platform. It trades aggressive sports handling for ultra-plush long-distance comfort, utilizing Citroen’s Advanced Comfort suspension with progressive hydraulic cushions and heavily padded seats.

Design

The e-C5 Aircross adopts a blocky, aerodynamic silhouette featuring Citroen’s sharp three-point LED light signature. Muscular body cladding, sculptured side panels, and 19-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels give it an assertive stance. A clever dipping roofline preserves rear headroom while optimizing efficiency, creating a futuristic look without aggressive gimmicks.

Drive

Smooth and whisper-quiet, the electric motor delivers instant, effortless power. Citroen’s Advanced Comfort suspension with Progressive Hydraulic Cushions glides seamlessly over harsh road imperfections. Light steering and soft dampening prioritize long-distance refinement over sporty handling, making highway cruising and urban commutes exceptionally calm and stress-free.

Practicality

Inside, an extended electric platform provides generous rear legroom and reclining seats. The cavernous 651-litre boot features a low load lip, expanding to nearly 1,985 litres with the seats folded. Highlights include a 13-inch vertical touchscreen, deep door pockets, and a chilled central armrest cubby for effortless family organization.

Living with it

With battery options offering up to 421 miles of range, long trips are worry-free. Rapid 160 kW DC charging handles 20% to 80% top-ups in under 30 minutes, while home charging easily manages overnight power. Ultra-plush seats, intuitive tech, and modern safety assists ensure an easy, low-stress daily routine.
