Looks a really good car! Citroen seem to have gone back to their roots and are cranking out some great cars currently.

In the past, with Citroën's hydraupneumatic suspension, if you wanted to change the stiffness of your suspension, you could replace the hydraulic spheres with different ones that had different characteristics which resulted in an entirely different suspension feel. Additionally, with newer models, the suspension stiffens up more depending on your driving. If you drive a bit "wilder" the suspension's default will be more stiff than the factory default and this is saved across driving sessions.

Tested the Hybrid C5 X twice this week. It’s a very comfortable car for the price range it’s in. While the ride is extremely comfortable and supple, some road surfaces it feels rough over. Usually broken tarmac which can send a surprising amount of vibration through the car. Some quality issues with the stitching on my test car with 4000 miles. There also some cheapness to the underfloor insulation, especially noticeable when you’re driving in the rain.

Well done! Like to see more of this type of reviews...

Come on guys, no one really mentioned the best humorous expert car presenting this guy does? Please... YOU rock dude, made me laugh while still presenting all there is about these cars. Thank you, keep it up! 😂🤘

Great looking car, and I like the decent ground clearance. Though I don't like FWD in such a large car, I'd rather have RWD or AWD.

Why? In a true luxury car there should be no sense of what wheels are driven, it should simply progress....

You're good bro because we have a 5008 which is FWD I'm always so worried about it because our Sorento is also AWD

PSA in general have really upped their game. Just hope they’re also making improvements under the hood to their build quality and reliability. Especially concerning the electronic wiring which they are known to be pretty crappy. Also I hope their engine layouts are more logical because they are generally a mechanic’s worst nightmare. Citroëns have always looked fantastic imo…

Is it really crappy? Havent heard much of more problems than anything else since 2006 or so.

Do these still have the hydropneumatic system suspension?

It sounds like the C5X may be the pick of the bunch so far, but we've only had this and the DS 4. Can't wait to see what the 408 brings.

Even tho i ain't a fan of most 'coupe' SUVs, this doesn't look that bad Edit: Alr, I've found out this is a lifted estate/fastback saloon like that weird Honda Accord Cross

It's more of a wagon/crossover kind of car. The C5 was always a somewhat luxurious sedan.

A modern CX?

About the missing wiper on the back. I remember the Citroen GS and CX in the 80ties, where aerodinamics produced a dry backwindow in full rain conditions. Same at the CX 5?

4:45 boot on a ford kuga is 412 - 526 litres (depending on rear seat position) - is Matt talking about a Ford Edge or something bigger here because surely not over 600 like stated? Cheers

Good video, as always, Matt.😊 Time and gain…. I watch eagerly when I hear words like ‘comfort’ and ‘sophisticated’. And, lots of cars seem to cover this reasonably well. But then, every time, there’s massive disappointment when we get to the ‘reveal’ on the engine; we hear that it’s got less capacity than a hairdryer! I know, I know!… these manufacturers will tell us that they have done lots of customer research which reveals that the average user of their products want this kind of electric tin opener power plant…. But, seriously, I know a lot of people, myself included, who drive so-called ‘luxury’ cars (V8 engined BMWs, etc) who don’t drive the badge and who would genuinely consider a car like this… if only it had something under the bonnet (‘hood’ for our chums in the US) that had enough torque not to have to be changing down three gears every time it came to climb a minor gradient! You can strap as many turbochargers as you like to a hairdryer-engine to achieve 300bhp, but it’s still no better than a muscular flea trying to push its dog uphill on an icy day. Take the current Volvo XC90…. Over 300bhp from a 2.0l engine… that’s trying to drag along a 2 tonne car! It’s drawn a lot of well deserved criticism from owners and the press. So, more manufacturers, please, please, please, we’re not asking for much… not even a V8…. Just a 3.0l petrol turbo and all wheel drive. That’s all. Nothing more. And, yes, it can be done…Kia have done it, beautifully!

A buy verdict when you least expect this Matt, watched so many of his videos can't even remember when was the last time he gave a buy verdict.

Since diesels (which would this type of car) are out of favour, economy is sought by a 1.2 Litre 130 PS petrol. A decent enough engine is a smaller car maybe.

You are correct Citroën did license hydro active suspension to Rolls Royce and Bentley. I have a C5 x7 Exclusive hydro active 3 plus. I will have to book a test drive to see how it compares to my V6 saloon?

Could it be that the 0-60 is faster, because Citroën measures 0-100 km/h, and 60 mph is only 96 km/h which it'll reach faster? I feel like you normally use 62 mph, but it's still weird that we have 2 different measurements for something that should be similar.
