Reviewed a 2020 Citroen C5 Aircross on 2 Aug 2023
Chose this over the Karok even though 3 people said no. You either love the styling or you dont. Extremely comfortable and economical. Loads of tech as you would expect with Citroën . Great value all round.

Citroën C5 Aircross (2026) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Huge space for people and luggage | Really lacklustre to drive |
| Smart-feeling interior | Poor performance in the hybrid |
| Well-thought-out touchscreen | Refinement isn't great |
Quick Summary
The Citroën C5 Aircross is a down-to-earth family SUV that prioritises space and practicality above all else. This second-generation model has grown in size, now offering a cavernous 651-litre boot with a clever double-height floor and genuinely spacious rear seating. The interior feels upmarket with its floating touchscreen design, intuitive infotainment system, and well-appointed cabin materials. Starting from just over £30,000, it represents excellent value compared to rivals like the Volkswagen Tiguan, which costs significantly more for similar boot space.
However, the C5 Aircross disappoints behind the wheel. The entry-level 1.2-litre hybrid engine is underpowered with a sluggish 11.2-second 0-62mph time, whilst the ride quality feels jittery and unsettled rather than the comfortable waft of its predecessor. The steering is light and remote, and engine refinement is poor when pushed. Running costs are reasonable, with expected fuel economy of 40-45mpg and a generous 16,000-mile service interval. This is a car that excels at ticking boxes on paper but fails to deliver an engaging driving experience.
Best for: Families prioritising space, comfort, and value over driving dynamics; those needing a large boot and rear legroom; budget-conscious buyers seeking an affordable family SUV.
Not ideal for: Drivers seeking an engaging or enjoyable driving experience; those who value refinement and smooth performance; buyers wanting a car that feels premium to drive.
Comparison vs Key Rivals
| Vehicle | CarGurus Expert Rating | CarGurus User Rating | Good/Great deals % | Overall CarGurus Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Citroën C5 Aircross | 3/5 | 5.0/5 | 37.2% | 4.3/5 |
| Kia Sportage | 5/5 | 4.4/5 | 34.2% | 4.5/5 |
| Chery Tiggo 7 | 4/5 | N/A | 38.7% | 3.9/5 |
| Skoda Kodiaq | 4/5 | 4.8/5 | 36.3% | 4.4/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the C5 Aircross if: You prioritise space and practicality, need a large boot and rear legroom, or seek an affordable family SUV with an upmarket interior.
Consider alternatives if: You value engaging driving dynamics, refinement, or a premium driving experience, or want a car that feels as good to drive as it looks on paper.
Competitive Position: The Citroën C5 Aircross is a strong contender for families seeking maximum space and value in the mid-sized SUV segment. Whilst it underperforms rivals like the Kia Sportage for driving engagement and the Skoda Kodiaq for overall refinement, its exceptional interior space, smart design, and competitive pricing make it an attractive proposition for budget-conscious buyers. The C5 Aircross excels at practicality but falls short on the driving experience, making it ideal for those willing to sacrifice dynamic handling for genuine family-friendly versatility.
