It’s good to see Citroën making such distinctive cars once more, especially when they tow this well.
Despite relatively soft suspension, the C5 Aircross is stable driven at motorway speeds or pushed through our emergency lane-change test.
Under hard braking, it stayed straight, and car and van needed just 10.7m to stop from 30mph.
The 30-60mph time of 12.3 seconds is brisk, and the eight-speed automatic gearbox changes gear smoothly.
