What engine is in the C5 Aircross?

You can buy a used C5 Aircross with petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid drivetrains. PureTech petrol models have either 1.2- or 1.6-litre capacities, while BlueHDi turbodiesels are available in 1.5- or 2.0-litre flavours. Six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic gearboxes are available.

The plug-in hybrid combines the most powerful petrol engine with an electric motor and automatic gearbox for strong performance with up to 34 miles of pure electric running. That means it’s particularly well suited to regular shorter trips, but just remember that the diesel remains the long-distance mpg champ.

All C5 Aircross models for sale are front-wheel drive.

What is the body style of a C5 Aircross?

The C5 Aircross is available exclusively in a five-door SUV body style. Measuring 4.5-metres long, it’s occupies the same amount of real estate as the BMW X1. The Citroën, however, offers significantly more luggage space, with up to 580 litres of room with the rear seats in place, extending to 720 litres if you slide the rear seats forwards, or a huge 1630 litres with them folded. (The X1 offers a maximum of 500 litres/1545 litres).

It’s worth noting that the plug-in hybrid reduces carrying capacity to 460 litres with the rear seats up, 600 litres rear seats slid forwards and 1510 litres with them folded flat.
