One Minute Motors: Citroën ë-C5 Aircross Overview
A real-world look at the Citroën ë-C5 Aircross and its family-friendly practicality.
In this episode of One Minute Motors, we take a closer look at the Citroën ë-C5 Aircross, a family SUV that combines modern styling, impressive practicality and the choice of hybrid or fully electric power. Designed to rival models such as the Peugeot E-3008 and Škoda Elroq, it also undercuts many of its competitors on price, making it an attractive option for value-conscious families.
From the outside, Citroën's latest design language gives the ë-C5 Aircross a clean and contemporary look. Sharp LED lighting, stylish alloy wheels and the striking black-and-white colour combination featured in our review help it stand out without being overstyled.
Practicality is a real strength. The boot offers plenty of luggage space along with useful underfloor storage for charging cables, while the spacious cabin gives both front and rear passengers plenty of room to get comfortable on longer journeys.
Inside, technology is another highlight. A large portrait touchscreen with built-in satellite navigation sits alongside wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while a crisp digital driver's display keeps key information easy to read. The top-spec model also benefits from a 360-degree camera and a head-up display, adding even more convenience.
On the road, the ë-C5 Aircross delivers exactly what many family buyers want: a comfortable, refined and easy-going driving experience. Buyers can choose between a hybrid model or the fully electric version, with the latter available in Comfort Range with up to 322 miles of range or Long Range with up to 421 miles on a single charge.
With prices starting from just over £31,000 for the hybrid and rising to just under £44,000 for the top-spec Long Range EV, the Citroën ë-C5 Aircross offers an appealing mix of technology, practicality and value in one of the market's most competitive segments.
