No one does a fun family car better than Citroen! The C5 Aircross offers a fantastic hybrid package for all the family but is it the best 5 seater out there?

A nice balance review. I currently drive and EV and with no charge point at home as an option, the reality of sitting at a charge point is not fun, especially when it’s not at your supermarket and you sit there on a cold miserable winters day. So, I went to looking for a comfortable hybrid petrol car with no plugin nonsense and decided to take a C5 Aircross E Series for an extended test drive. The comfort was so welcomed. I’ve never driven a car this comfortable. I loved driving this car so much I’ve ordered one!
The ride quality of these C5 AC’s is really outstanding. Nice review as usual 😊

I like this car
Really smart design on the rear seats! I used to have a Nissan Cube with sliding seats like that and it was super useful! I wish more cars had this.

Right? It so easy to add more space or reduce space when not being used!
I have the base model in facelift. Very pleased with it overall.
Interesting car,from a Tucson owner. Tish,cute as always 😊

Kalite olarak çok iyi. Uçan Halıda gider gibi hissediyorum❤ Şehiriçi ve otoban kullanımı keyifli ve güvenli. Türkiye'de çok seviliyor.

@@darrensimpson8030 Which series was it? I test-drove the é series today but I don't know why, the suspensions did not feel super good. May that be the thin tyres?

Nice video, very useful. Besides, although you´re not an English teacher, I find your accent lovely, very useful on that field too. Bye from Spain, saludos

Thank you for watching and I am glad you enjoy the videos
Always been a good buy 2nd hand as great value. Find a 2yr old one that’s been well cared for and you have a great family car.

Very true!
Great review Tish, you just need to correct the boot space.. I got the 1.6 petrol since 2019 and I still love it, it's a beautiful and very practical car.

Would you be able to get your hands on a base model version of the new Porsche Cayenne to review? Keep up the good work

Maybe, I do not do that much with Porsche but I can see what I can do
Definitelly an SUV for a young mom ... to drive her kids to the school or kindergarden, shopping, errands. 👍 And ... in this scenario ... a PHEV will be preferable ... even if the young family lives in an apartment. After all, a charging station is just a bunch of electric cables ... so, a solution for charging during night can be put in the block's parking ... with the cable plugged-in ... up, in the apartment's dedicated socket. 🙂 Having the battery full ... every single morning ... she will no longer need to fill the tank on her way to kindergarden - so, to leave the kids in the car - to pay the fuel. Convenience, economy, safety. 👍👍👍

What I would do, though ... as an up-grade 😉... would be to change the seats configuration ... the rear bench - > in the front ... and the front seats -> in the back ... in 69 configuration 🤭(for the bigger boys of the family - in order to put some distance between them ... to limit the punching opportunities 😃). The rear bench moved in the front (with the central console moved in the back, too) ... would create the possibility for the young mom to have the little one at her left hand (or at her right one - in the continental Europe) - in the child car seat - mounted to face the kid's mom. Being face-to-face all the time ... both of them - the kid & the mom - will be more relaxed, without the separation anxiety. 🙂
😊
Will it be launch in India

I don’t know, sorry. Probably not if it’s not there already as the C5 has been here for a while
Just avoid 1.2 PureTech and you will be fine. Good car, reasonable price.

We Buy Any Car offering 18k for that very car you are reviewing with 500 miles in the clock. How much new?

It’s £31,490.00 but ‘we buy any car’ checking something isn’t really an accurate price, it’s trade after-all. Cheapest brand new car, they’re £25,000 on Autotrader.
Plastic leather? I had a real leather like that in 1972
The pre revamp car was much better looking. Still some nice details on the front of thst car that I have not noticed before.

A poorly designed and unreliable engine ruins any car with this engine. Unless you don't pay for the repair. It is not without reason that there are more and more unsold cars on Stellantis yards.
