The Citroën C5X, a
New Car, enters the Chinese market as a "new French luxury grand tourer," bringing a unique comfort solution to the new energy vehicle era. The C5X injects
commercial vehicle-level long-distance comfort into the family car market, making every journey a "magic carpet" ride.
In terms of appearance, the X-shaped LED daytime running lights are integrated with a 3D chrome grille. A 193 mm ground clearance combined with a fastback design offers both the off-road capability of an SUV and the elegance of a grand tourer. The 19-inch diamond-cut wheels and dual rear spoiler design perfectly capture both French romance and futuristic style.
Stepping inside, the 2900 mm wheelbase provides a 545 L trunk (1640 L with the rear seats folded down), easily accommodating a full set of camping gear. The Advanced Comfort seats feature 15 mm thick high-density foam and PHC adaptive hydraulic stability technology, capable of 500 damping adjustments per second. Combined with the class-leading "Magic Carpet" active suspension system, standard across the entire range, speed bumps and gravel roads become silky smooth.
Powertrain options include a 1.6T + 8AT gasoline engine and a PHEV plug-in hybrid: the plug-in hybrid model boasts a combined power output of 225 kW, a pure electric range of 120 km (WLTC), and a combined fuel consumption of 1.3 L/100 km, achieving zero fuel consumption for city commuting and eliminating range anxiety for weekend trips. The MCS master-level chassis tuning, along with a 45° angled shock absorber layout, ensures less than 2.8° body roll in corners, achieving a perfect balance of comfort and driving pleasure. In terms of intelligence, the 12-inch floating high-definition touchscreen features built-in C-Connect 3.0 intelligent connectivity, supporting OTA updates for unlimited iterations. AR real-view navigation, L2.5 C-Pilot assisted driving (including full-speed adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, and automatic lane change assist), and a 360° transparent chassis allow even novice drivers to quickly become experienced drivers.
In terms of safety, the C5X adopts a space capsule-style high-strength steel-aluminum hybrid body, with 30% of the A/B pillars constructed from 1800 MPa hot-formed steel. It features 6 airbags plus a knee airbag, and the battery pack has undergone 12 layers of protection and 200,000 bump tests, achieving zero thermal runaway. ESP 9.3, HDC hill descent control, FCW forward collision warning, and AEBS active emergency braking create a comprehensive safety barrier for the whole family.
From city commuting to cross-province road trips, the Citroën C5X, under the name of New Car, makes
new energy vehicles no longer just for tech enthusiasts, but also brings the long-distance comfort standards of
Commercial Vehicles into families, making "comfortable to sit in, smooth to drive, and affordable" a new interpretation of French travel.
