Citroen C5X

The X in the new, upscale Citroen C5 X is noteworthy since it alluded to the company's objective for the car, which is to combine traits from many segments, including hatchbacks and SUVs.

Indeed, the aesthetic appears to reflect this, having parts of both in the design. It uses the same technology as the C5 Aircross SUV, but it's a more mature offering, with petrol and plug-in hybrid powertrains and an all-new 12-inch HD infotainment display on the inside.

The C5 X is also intended to provide a level of luxury that, considering its low price, you may not expect.

Rivals for the upcoming big Citroen include the Peugeot 508 and Volkswagen Passat, while the C5 X may draw buyers away from SUVs like the Peugeot 3008 when it arrives in 2022.
