CAPABLE AND LIKEABLE: The Citroen C5 Aircross PHEV Max

- 

THE midsize SUV class is booming right now but the C5 Aircross has become a stagnant choice of late, having been on sale since 2018. So Citroen has released the second-generation, which is bang up-to-date with the competition.

WHAT'S NEW?

It's all new and sits on Stellantis's STLA-M Platform, which is shared with the Peugeot 3008, Peugeot 5008 and Vauxhall Grandland.

It's available with a plethora of powertrains to suit different buyers, comes with a tech-focused interior, and has one of the largest boots in its class or so Citroen claims.

There are air deflectors and inlets around the exterior to help with aerodynamics and efficiency.

It is also bigger, more practical and better equipped, with a choice of three trim levels on offer too.
