• C5 Crossover Interior

0.75-inch (19 mm) Silk Dome Tweeters The silk dome tweeter is prized by audiophiles for delivering realistic, non-fatiguing, high-frequency performance. The C5 component tweeters are built with 0.75-inch silk dome diaphragms that deliver smooth, extended response, on and off axis. Flush-mounting and surface-mounting fixtures are included to fit a wide variety of installation needs. C5 Aircross is the most modular car in its segment, because the rear seats can individually slide, fold and adjust for incline. At minimum, you have 580 litres of boot space at your disposal. This can be extended to 720 litres if you play around with the rear seats. With both comfort and practicality hailed to be at the core of its strengths, the C5 Aircross innovates from its seat design to its suspension specification; and, with a boot that’s almost 600.

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.

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.

The Citroën C-Crosser is a compact crossover SUV launched in July 2007,^[1] designed for the French manufacturer Citroën, and produced by Mitsubishi on the basis of the Outlander. The equivalent Peugeotbadge engineered version was the 4007.

It was expected that the car would be named the C7, but in October 2006, it was announced that it would be called the C-Crosser. The C-Crosser took its name from the four-wheel drive concept car that Citroën first displayed in the 2001 Frankfurt Motor Show.^[2][3] The C-Crosser was shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2007.

Together, the 4007 and C-Crosser were the first Japanese produced cars sold under any French brand. They had been planned to be assembled, for Europe, in the factory that was built in the 1960s to assemble DAFs, now Mitsubishi's Nedcar plant in Born, Netherlands,^[4] but this was postponed indefinitely, due to slow sales of the models.^[5]

From 2011, they were assembled at the Russian PSA Peugeot Citroën/Mitsubishi joint venture factory in Kaluga.^[6] In March 2012, production of the C-Crosser ended, and it was replaced by the C4 Aircross. By the end of production, only 2,050 units had been sold.

Seating[edit]

The second and third row of seats can be folded away to provide a flat floor, and an expanded load capacity for the boot. The rear two seats can be completely hidden away under the floor, while the second row of seating, slides to offer greater leg room or boot space, features a 60:40 split/fold function that is operated via electric controls in the boot.

This allows for the car to be used for both sporting, and also for transporting groups of up to seven people, including the driver. This is similar to the seating arrangement in the current Citroën C4 Picasso, which also offers the capability of seating seven persons.

Engines and transmissions[edit]

• Diesel (PSA)
  • 2.2 L DW12 HDiturbodieselstraight-4, 156 PS (115 kW; 154 hp) and 380 N⋅m (280 lb⋅ft)
• Petrol (not available in all markets)
  • 2.4 L 4B12 DOHC 16 valve MIVECI4, 170 PS (125 kW; 168 bhp) (same engine as the Outlander)^[7]

The C-Crosser’s integral transmission allows drivers to have a choice of three settings, dependent on road conditions and driving style: two-wheel drive, four-wheel drive, and a lock setting designed for low grip conditions. Ensuring an optimum blend of comfort, road holding, and off road capability. All these transmissions are selectable using the control behind the gear lever.
