    C5 Aircross comfort 

    My friend has a Citroe­n C5 Aircross. I have ridden in it many times. It is a nice­ car. The seats are soft and cozy. The­ ride is smooth and comfortable. This makes long trips e­asy. There is plenty of room inside­. It works well for families. It works well for road trips with frie­nds. Best of all, it is cheap. It costs less than othe­r cars like it. You get a lot for your money. Howe­ver, the engine­ is slow sometimes. It does not spe­ed up fast. But in general, it is a gre­at car for the price.

    comfortable ride 

    Citroen's obvious arrangement language is evident in the C5 Aircross, with its solid front grille, smooth Drove headlights, and imprint Airbump sheets on the sides. Its high level and eye-getting appearance isolates it from changed SUVs all over town. The C5 Aircross comes equipped with an extent of pattern setting development features, including a touchscreen infotainment system with mobile phone mix, driver assist structures with enjoying flexible excursion control and way keeping help, and a customizable modernized instrument bunch. The C5 Aircross' esteeming may be hardly higher than a piece of its rivals, potentially limiting its temptation for practical buyers. Vicious assessing or additional value added features could settle on it a really engaging decision.

    A True Comfort Cruiser 

    I finally took the plunge and went for the Citroen C5 Aircross, having been impressed by its European design and the promise of unparalleled comfort. Let me tell you, it has not disappointed. The suspension with Progressive Hydraulic Cushions is like nothing else. Driving through India's unpredictable roads felt surprisingly smooth, a genuine game changer.The interior gives a premium vibe, with plush seating and enough space ensuring every passenger is in for a comfortable ride.The 2.0 liter diesel engine, delivering a power of 177PS and a torque of 400Nm, meant I had enough power on tap, makes highway cruises and city sprints equally enjoyable.

    best quality drives with aircross 

    An amazing five seater SUV, the Citroen C5 Aircross has a FWD option. The price is not so affordable as it is a bit expensive 36-39 lakhs i feel. It is quite versatile and has been built practically. The interior is extremely comfortable imparting a home like experience to its passengers. The specifications are nice and it is well equipped with modern technology and designing which really turns head on the road.

    Prime model 

    Hello today we visited to view carens prestige manual model it's cost around rs1480000 to rs 1500000 but our budget around 1350000 so we came little disappointed then salewomen took us to view the premium model which is base variant and she treats us very good, She convince us with great move bc the prime model was luxury comparing to competative company and three row was more comfortable then any other car which is in this rate it has recline option 4 to 5 shift and seat also move with that move so the space is too good we did expect that much comfort for the three row and ac vent are available for three rows in base model itself.If you are search for 7 seater with budget around 1350000rs my opinion once visit carens premium model, Go and see all car which you decide to see but see the carens at late then you will decide to buy carens 100% worth it.
