The 2025 Citroën C5 Aircross is a plug-in hybrid SUV with FWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the C84 generation. The PHEV is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured PHEV version develops 225 hp and 360 Nm (266 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 8.7 seconds, which is measured, with performance geared more toward normal driving than acceleration. Top speed is listed at 225 km/h (140 mph). Its power output is about 38% below the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 37% slower than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Battery, range and charging
Battery capacity is listed at 12.4 kWh. The recorded electric range is 56 km (35 miles). Listed energy or fuel consumption is 1.4 L/100km. Its listed range is about 23% below the peer average. Real-world range and charging speed still depend on temperature, speed, wheel choice, battery state and the conditions of the test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,500 mm (177.2 in) in length, 1,859 mm (73.2 in) in width, and 1,671 mm (65.8 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,730 mm (107.5 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 460 litres (16.2 cu ft), expanding to 1,510 litres (53.3 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,770 kg (3,902 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 1,200 kg (2,646 lb). That cargo volume is about 16% below the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
The model range
The recorded line-up consists of PHEV 225 and PHEV. Across the range, the specifications span 225 hp, 7.5 s to 8.7 s, and 55 km to 56 km, while listed starting prices run from $41,800-$44,500. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.
In perspective
Compared with nearby plug-in hybrid SUV models from the same period, the 2025 Citroën C5 Aircross is strongest on price, while towing capacity and power stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
