Citroen has launched two new versions of the Citroen C5 Aircross in Germany, named the Business Feel and Business Shine. Based on the Life Pack spec, the C5 Aircross Business Feel starts at € 28,240 (US$ 34,299) including tax, undercutting the slightly smaller Volkswagen Tiguan, which is listed from € 28,935 (US$ 35,143) for the base grade, by almost € 700 (US$ 850).
Standard features include 18-inch ‘Swirl’
alloy wheels, ‘Silica Grey’ seat cover, two-zone climate control, navigation
system, digital radio, reversing camera, blind spot assist, active emergency
braking and front and rear parking sensors. Heated front seats, a heated
windscreen and Citroen ConnectedCam are available as options. The C5 Aircross
Business Feel uses the PureTech 131 PS petrol engine, which
returns 5.2 l/100 km (45.2 mpg US) on average.
At a starting price of € 33,900 (US$ 41,174),
the C5 Aircross Business Shine is € 1,000 (US$ 1,215) shy of a new Audi Q3. This
model adds full LED headlights and LED turn signals, thicker front side windows,
different front seats, active cruise control, traffic sign recognition and
keyless entry. Options include part leather seats in grey or beige and the
Business Package that brings heated front seats, all-weather tires, Grip
Control with hill-descent assist, electric tailgate and panoramic sunroof.
Customers can choose between the PureTech
131 PS petrol engine and the BlueHDi 131 PS diesel, which has an average consumption of 4.1 l/100 km (57.4 mpg US) and
emits 107 g/km of CO2. Both engines are mated to an eight-speed automatic
gearbox.
