Citroen C5 Aircross

The Citroën C5 Aircross feels like a sofa on wheels, delivering a calm, floaty ride and clever packaging that makes life with luggage and kids noticeably easier. Quirky French styling and a supremely practical, family-focused cabin mean it quietly wins hearts by prioritising comfort over showroom bravado.

I drive the 1.2 petrol hybrid from new since January 2026, which was registered in November 2025. Great car to drive. However, for tall person like myself, there is not enough room for your left keg to stretch and cramps happen in long journeys. Acceleration from start is better than my older 1.6 diesel c4 picasso. Overall best car I ever had, although infotainment a bit dodgy with a left hand and not at all practical. I minor inconvenience!

It's a pleasant car; it's not coarse or brutal. As a 60-year-old, I don't need acceleration or top speed.

Cars like the C5 Aircross are probably one reason why Stellantis is almost bankrupt — or already is.
Uncomfortable and completely unsuitable for long-distance driving.
Huge on the outside, small on the inside.
Extremely uncomfortable seats, poor infotainment, very bad driver aids (360° camera, cruise control, lane-keep assist, navigation… are really awful), confusing, poor road manners, loud engine and noisy wind.
I can only hope that I’ll never again be forced to drive this vehicle.

I find the Citroën better suited to my daily driving — more comfortable and efficient, with a softer suspension compared with the firmer Toyota Cross.

More options and more room for discounts and negotiation, just as comfortable, better than a Hyundai Ioniq 5 (which is not comfortable at all), a Toyota bZ4X (feels cramped and has little space), a Tesla Model Y Premium (a bit too high-tech for me but otherwise fine), a Jaecoo 5 (entry-level, comfort impeccable but no options and little tech), and an Omoda (less comfortable and very few options). This is all a personal opinion — we drove the cars mentioned above and the Skoda seems the best value for money with good comfort, a variety of options and reliable after-sales service close to us.

Well‑thought-out and practical car (85x MY2024) that unfortunately lets you down because of system bugs and irritating driver‑assist systems that can't cope with ordinary autumn or winter weather without throwing up error messages and warnings.
