With the muscular wheel arches and a concave rear window, its road presence is impossible to ignore. Viewed head-on, it is particularly imposing ­ with the trademark chrome chevrons and large air-intakes flanked by the incisive, signature boomerang headlamps. In profile it shows an even more sophisticated side ­ the sculpted body and extended roofline are indicative of the prestige and style of this thoroughbred executive saloon. THE TOURER: HIDDEN SPACE The Citroën C5 Tourer pulls off an amazing feat of optical illusion ­ disguising its ample interior with a nimble-looking, silky silhouette that evokes performance from every angle. Reflecting the saloon's stylish design and dynamic presence, it balances long, sleek lines with the trademark high waist. And at the same time, it is immediately recognisable as one of Citroën's superb touring models, with its wide track and wheels flush to the body. 5 INVIGORATING LUXURY. SOMETHING STRANGE HAPPENS WHEN YOU SIT INSIDE THE CITROËN C5 ­ YOU FEEL EXCITED AND RELAXED, ALL AT ONCE. THE MOODY LIGHTING, THE DAMPED GLOVE BOXES, THE LEATHER STEERING WHEEL AND THE TANGIBLE QUALITY OF MATERIALS AND FINISHES. IT'S A PLEASANTLY THRILLING SENSATION. SIT TIGHT Nothing sums up this unique experience better than the Citroën C5's seats, which are ergonomically sculpted for maximum comfort in all driving conditions. And when you opt for a leather interior on VTR+ NAV and Exclusive models, you'll enjoy the added luxury of heated, electric front seats which can be effortlessly adjusted to your preferred position. The driver's seat even has a massage function ­ for a little high speed relaxation. FUTURISTIC INTERIOR The Citroën C5 marries cutting-edge luxury with solid, unyielding quality. Its state-of-the-art cockpit is driver-focused with a host of exciting technology at your fingertips, while the stylishly lit dashboard displays all vital information.

SO THE CITROËN C5 PAYS EQUAL HOMAGE TO BOTH. PREPARE YOURSELF FOR A PERFORMANCE WHERE STIRRING POWER IS KEPT IN CHECK BY PRECISE STEERING. A GRIPPING DRIVE IS MADE EVEN BETTER BY HIGH LEVELS OF COMFORT AND SAFETY. SUSPEND DISBELIEF You always expect an outstanding ride from Citroën, and the C5 delivers this with a choice of two sophisticated suspensions. The core system is a highly engineered front double wishbone and multi-link rear suspension ­ it's a set-up that's been specially tuned to complement the Citroën C5's dynamic looks with an equally dynamic drive, without compromising comfort. ACTIVE DRIVE COMFORT Of course, if you really want to experience something unique, you can opt for the Hydractive 3+ suspension, our most advanced system to date. This advanced technology offers a whole new standard of luxurious driving, or at a touch of the `sport mode' button, the ultimate in driving excitement. Hydractive 3+ also has Citroën's trademark self-levelling feature that guarantees a constant ride height regardless of load or number of passengers ­ particularly useful for the Tourer. The ingenuity does not end there. The suspension constantly monitors speed and road conditions, lowering the car at 70mph to optimise stability and fuel economy. So whatever you're looking for ­ supreme comfort, an exhilarating performance or unrivalled load-carrying ability ­ the Citroën C5 has some truly inspiring answers. FUELLING ENJOYMENT You can see it's a driver's car the moment you lay eyes on it. But if you need any further proof of the Citroën C5's motoring credentials, look no further than the range-topping 3.0HDi V6, which delivers a potent 240hp. This high performance engine turns the Citroën C5 into one of the most exhilarating executive vehicles on the road. And the Citroën C5 offers as much versatility as it does power, with a selection of two petrol and five diesel engines to match the level of pleasure and efficiency you're looking for. There's even a choice of automatic and manual gearboxes to put that final performance decision firmly in the palm of your hand. 9 ADVANCED SIMPLICITY. EVERY SECOND, INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY IN THE CITROËN C5 IS MAKING A MILLION CALCULATIONS ­ WHERE YOU ARE, WHERE YOU'RE GOING, AND HOW IT CAN GET YOU THERE FASTER, SAFER AND MORE COMFORTABLY. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE DRIVE ­ CONTROLLING THE MAJORITY OF IT FROM THE COMFORT OF YOUR STEERING WHEEL. STEERING INTELLIGENCE At the heart of the Citroën C5's technology revolution is the new fixed-centred controls steering wheel. Needless to say, it does so much more than turn the wheels ­ in fact it turns your car into a high tech tool, adjustable at the soft touch of a button. From activating the speed limiter and cruise control to changing songs or the central information display, you have everything you need for the drive, right at your fingertips. NAVIGATION INNOVATION So much more than navigation, the optional NaviDrive system is a powerful hub of information, communication and even entertainment. It gives you GPS navigation, live traffic updates and a Bluetooth® system. NaviDrive also features a top of the range audio system with a 10GB hard disc with jukebox function so you can drive for days without having to push a button. It even has European mapping, which makes crossing borders as seamless as switching tracks. You'll find the optional USB Box also on Exclusive models for complete connectivity. The MyWay colour satellite navigation system standard on VTR+ NAV models, has SD card integrated European mapping which brings you live traffic information, voice guidance and graphics in 2D or aerial perspective. It also features a Bluetooth® system. Cutting edge entertainment, navigation and communication are all in the mix. 10 CITROËN C5 TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION INTELLIGENT INSTINCT Of course, it wouldn't be a Citroën C5 without state-of-the-art technology to enhance the overall experience of sitting behind the wheel. Your car is always looking and thinking one step ahead ­ exemplified by the revolutionary Lane Departure Warning System, available on VTR+ NAV and Exclusive models. This advanced safety system has a vibrating alert mounted in the driver's seat, keeping you informed of unintentional lane changes. CLEAR THINKING To make your night drives even more pleasant, all Citroën C5 models are equipped with the static Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS), which boosts lighting functionality to give you a clearer view of the road, wherever it takes you. On Exclusive models, you can opt for Xenon Dual-Function Directional headlamps. With dynamic AFS, it follows the car's steering, greatly enhancing visibility on corners and at junctions. CLEVER LITTLE EXTRAS When the time comes to park, the availability of `gap' measurement technology and front and rear parking assistance means you can manoeuvre easily into the tightest spaces. And if your arms are full of shopping, the automatic boot on Exclusive Tourer models can be opened with a touch of your remote. 11 CITROËN C5 ENVIRONMENTAL POWERFUL CONSIDERATION. ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN AND POWERFUL PERFORMANCE AREN'T USUALLY CRITERIA YOU'D GROUP TOGETHER. BUT IN THE CITROËN C5, WE'VE EVOLVED OUR TECHNOLOGY FOR GREENER, QUIETER ENGINES ­ WITH PLENTY OF EXHILARATING PERFORMANCE. IT'S JUST ONE MORE REASON YOU'LL FEEL GOOD DRIVING THE CITROËN C5. 12 DRIVING PEACE OF MIND A clean, efficient driving experience is at the heart of the Citroën brand. Our cars are designed to the highest environmental standards and fuel-efficiency is a major priority for our engineers. The Citroën C5 takes this even further, ensuring optimised CO2 levels by cutting pollutant emissions with its electronically controlled high pressure direct injection diesel engines, as well as its multi-valve petrol engines. ENERGY SAVER® TYRES With a reduction in rolling resistance of 20%, Michelin's Energy Saver ® tyres, fitted on 1.6HDi 16V 110hp VTR+ NAV models, reduce the amount of energy needed to propel the car along the road which results in a reduction in the fuel consumption. This is achieved with no loss of grip or stability, with shorter stopping distances in wet conditions. The tyre's innovative architecture generates fuel savings of nearly 0.2litres per 100km (in combined cycle), resulting in a reduction in CO2 emissions of nearly 9g/km and around one tonne less CO2 over the entire life of a Citroën C5. FOOT-DOWN WITHOUT THE FOOTPRINT The Citroën C5 offers you a choice of seven engines in all: petrol or diesel, ranging from 110hp to 240hp ­ and the diesel versions are equipped with our award-winning Diesel Particulate Filter System (DPFS) as standard. Excelling in environmental credentials, this DPFS significantly exceeds EU standards, contributing to hugely improved exhaust emissions and virtually eliminating diesel smoke for even more responsible motoring. Each engine has been carefully engineered to meet Euro IV emissions standards or even Euro V for the 2.0HDi 16V 140hp and 3.0HDi V6 240hp models. 13 PROTECTIVE FORCE. PACKED WITH CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY, THE CITROËN C5 DOES EVERYTHING IT CAN TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS. OF COURSE IF ONE DOES HAPPEN, REST ASSURED YOU AND YOUR PASSENGERS ARE SURROUNDED BY ONE OF THE FINEST PROTECTIVE BODY-SHELLS ON THE ROAD. PROACTIVE SAFETY Safety is not optional on the Citroën C5, with a lengthy standard of accident-avoiding technology putting you in control. It has an advanced braking system with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Emergency Braking Assistance (EBA), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) so you can stay on guard in all conditions. And if you do find yourself in an unexpectedly hairy situation, you can rely on sophisticated added safety measures ­ such as traction control and hazard warning lights activated automatically when the ABS operates.
