Citroen C5 Aircross Starting Price Goes Down With A New Variant

The C5 Aircross now gets a new entry-level variant called Feel priced at Rs 36.91 lakh (ex-showroom pan-India)

• Citroen C5 Aircross facelift was launched in single variant in September 2022.

• The SUV is now sold in two variants, Feel and Shine, as offered with its pre-facelift version.

• The Shine variant has become costlier by Rs 50,000.

• Feature differences could include a smaller touchscreen and no panoramic sunroof.

• It gets the same 2-litre 177PS/400Nm diesel engine mated to an 8-speed automatic.

• Prices now range from Rs 36.91 lakh to Rs 37.67 lakh (ex-showroom pan-India).

The Citroen C5 Aircross has regained an entry-level variant called the ‘Feel.’ The carmaker has also hiked the price of the SUV’s top-spec Shine variant. The pre-facelift version already got both these variants but the ‘Feel’ trim was discontinued with the introduction of the facelifted C5 Aircross last year.

With the latest update, the C5 Aircross’ top-spec Shine trim has become costlier by half a lakh rupees, but the SUV overall has become more affordable by Rs 26,000. Both the Feel and Shine variants are available in monotone and dual-tone paint options priced the same.

What Changes With The Update?

Although Citroen is yet to reveal what features the new entry-level trim misses on, we believe the C5 Aircross Feel is likely to get a smaller touchscreen unit, and ditch the panoramic sunroof and some other comfort and convenience features.

As far as the Shine variant of the C5 Aircross is concerned, the carmaker has equipped it with a 10-inch touchscreen system, wireless phone charging, dual-zone climate control, panoramic sunroof, and electrically adjustable driver seat. Its safety kit consists of 3-point seatbelts for all passengers, six airbags, hill-assist and descent control, and a reversing camera.

A Diesel Engine Only

The midsize premium SUV is offered with a 2-litre diesel engine (177PS/400Nm). This unit is coupled to an 8-speed automatic transmission. It has two drive modes – Eco and Sport – and multi-terrain modes: Standard, Snow, Sand, Mud and Damp Grass.
