Love how c5 looks in person... absolute head turner
In Belgium, I checked this 2 cars (Also V40 & 3008) And choose the C5 Aircross, so glad with my choice, its a car for long distance (Brussels - Munich/ Berlin/ Hamburg) on the 1.5L Diesel, average 115Km/H 4.5L/100 and the comfortability is superb BTW the sit also have cooling heating and massage option!
Much Awaited Comparison.....Thanx Overdrive
I honestly feel bad for the C5 Aircross. It should have been priced more competitively, but then Citroen doesn't seem to understand the indian market that well. The C3 too seems overpriced for what it offers.
So true...C5 was actually a competition to kodiaq n tugun but these cars are bought in India as CBU because their sales are low....had C5 been launched at 25 with few features less would have made wonders
C5 should be priced below Hyundai for it to sell. For its price, people will want the big three
What we( I ) need is a C4 priced between between 13-20L on road with the size and comfort of C5 with slightly less engine power.
It’s some really amazing jackass in the Citroen India trying to show off with his foreigner boss. Sir, this car is tooo good, we can sell it for a crore.
Great review as ever. At 17:18mins the next video suggestions hide the evaluation table behind it; could have been avoided. I would like you to also additionally cover (at least quick mentions) the following: air-conditioning, illumination quality, built quality incl comparison of soft-touch material vs hard plastics. Thanks
Brilliant review as always. Thank you.
Driving 2023 C5 currently, thats the car to buy. Comfort is superb.
He is gem of person, excellent & authentic communication,the best part of him is knowledgeable and speaks well as well.
The Citroen rear seats also slide backwards and forwards a feature often missed by a lot of reviewers.
Very well explained🎉and well Compared also
Is that a LWB version of the Tucson? In Türkiye, Tucson has a length of 4500 mm and wheelbase of 2680 mm.
I bought Jeep Compass last year but now I’m quite impressed with C5 looks. Only price is lil high
I bought a 2019 3 year old one with 30K on the clock and saved 10 thousand.
I drive C5-trust me it's better than se* 🙂
Citroën anyday
Small errors about the C 5 having a dual Zone ofcourse the hill hold too. About Panic braking, no issues at all.
TUSCON is supposed to be a handsome car but looks suddenly pale in front of C5 classic design
You have given somewhat wrong info in some place and have hidden some cool feature of C5. C5 donhave dual climate control. It has auto park facility. For a family which needs seat for 5, C5 is a clear winner. Tuscon is a good car too and has many cool features. However I felt the review biased
True and notice the hyped intro for Tucson compared to the C5 in the beginning , I instantly knew it was biased towards Tucson
The c5 does not need release of the handbrake manually it automatically releases when you touch the throttle. The rear seats also slide back and forth independantly, the front headrests also slide back and forth which makes adjustment very easy and comfortable. it does have dual climate control you can adjust the temperatures independantly of each other, the central storage box between the front seats is also climate controlled and you can store chilled food in the compartment and blow cold air from the air conditioning system through the storage compartment.
Booked the Hyundai last week 😊cant hold my excitement
Given that Hyundai/ Kia have been caught selling differently engineered (and cheaper) quality cars in india , am gonna assume the Tucson is a 3 star car until a specific rating for the Indian model shows up. Saying it’s the same spec as international is intentionally misleading Overdrive team. Similarly speckled cars have in the past turned out to be a lot less safe for these brands in india
I have C5 Aircross 2.0 D Shine. It's very comfotable, powered, economical and beutiful car. Tucson it's candy in older box)
Can you please show throw of lights at night of both cars???
light throw is adjustable on the C5
Why should i buy new tucson? It has the same engine from the previous model. International model has hybrid and better interior. Steering wheel and gear knob are almost carried away from creta and centre console are bit outdated
C5 is awesome
Citroen practically invented the reliable emissions system it is the best it can be in the automotive industry with very few problems on diesel and petrol models, others have egr system issues esspecially with 1.6 litre diesel engines.
Yet another meaningful comparo by OD. Having driven the C5 I beg to differ with RP with regards to the feel of the high dashboard and window line on the C5. Made me feel like i was hemmed in and visibility out of the driver window while driving was very poor. Had to be extra cautious. At any rate Citroen hasn’t done enough with regards to tailor making the C5 for the Indian market. Price or specifications wise. Sad.
Without compass and tiguan, the comparo isn't complete
who don't like responsiveness or eagerness of engine? more pickup is better and it also reduces mental fatigue.
I'm in between C5 Hybrid and Honda Vezel Hybrid 😅
Citroen should first spread their service network in India and should also prove its reliability in long run like Hyundai.
One thing I don't like about C5 is the price
This is one segment where its hard to find a good all-round offering. Compass offers very little equipment at the entry bracket and by the time you reach tier which does, the quality niggles just deter you from putting in that kind of money. Petrol too is lackluster. C5 always was too expensive for what it is. Citroen should have either offered more features or priced it better. Its a similar story with Tiguan, where VW should have offered better spec for the price. Tucson looks the best option of the lot with Diesel, but its a disappointment with the petrol powertrain. Personally, I would rather stretch for Kodiaq, which has a good balance of price to specifications.
But why would you go for a petrol engine on such a huge car?
@@daniel-oc2kz bruh my parents own a tiguan with that engine and the lowest mileage they ever have gotten in its first month are 8 kmpl which is still decent for petrol cars
@Akash Rana Kodiaq actually is a segment above these cars in which there’s the meridian and used to be santa fe and crv diesel
no talk on c5's suspension
Worthy comparison.. but the fortuner needs to be pited as third contender on price point
Bro has a foot of gap between his head and roof and he complains about headroom.
Hundai tucson is similar like old model honda city.....citron c5 best 🔥
I feel it’s biases.
Tucson design 👍👍👑💎
Plz adjust your EXPOSURE Eyes hurt while watching video
Should have added jeep compass with them
Tooo middle class
@@kostinarain7373 trailhawk will beat them with practicality, features and price i think
@@sabinjacob6403 It doesn't matter, image is too bad
@@kostinarain7373 for comfort no1 would consider compass i guess, but these two definitely !
@@kr1xh438 true
C5 😇
Cannot beat Hyundai on features lol. They decimate their competition in ALL segments. Safety (barring Tucson) though is debatable.
Tiguan is safest choice of segment as it scored 5 stars at latin ncap (Tucson scored 0 stars) Citroen scored 4 stars at euro ncap only Compass has interesting issue with the problem being it’s engine as although left hand drive compass scored 5 stars, right hand drive isn’t tested due to there being risk of oil leak in this variant bringing chances of its safety score being worse then creta Kodiaq and meridian are a segment above due to their 7 seats and plusher cabins
@@darkkboy7017 i like how no one talks of hyundai tuscons 5 star rating in euro ncap
@@darkkboy7017 dimaag mein gobar rakha h kya tere. Tucson is 5 star rated.
@@glubglubglub732 for a Hyundai it is impressive and it’s appreciated However, euro ncap has much less strict rules and tests in comparison to Latin ncap and the build quality and safety features of a car get tested there much more harshly. If one car got 5 stars in Latin ncap while another car got 0 stars, how can that be ignored if you also remember last gen Tucson also got same safety rating
@@darkkboy7017 any car in Latin ncap with 2 airbags or less is rated 0 only. And same was the case with tuscon. And even if it has 6 airbags, other safety equipment is also checked. The mid spec variant of the tuscon which had 6 airbags and had less safety kit scored 3 star in Latin ncap which is actually impressive
Such a long and detailed review about the C5 , yet you missed the one missing feature which a driver should have noticed C5 does not have "auto hold" in any drive mode. At 40L + , that's a real Shame, along with missing ADAS features
yes it does have hill hold approxamately 3 seconds. I own the flair model 1.5 hdi.
@@oojimmyflip auto hold is different from hill hold assist
Why guys are so feared to compare it with harrier😊
petrol tuscon gives full size spare
the boot floor rises and lowers in the C5 for more boot space if needed.
Lmao who has a Tucson and also a chauffeur?
Tuscon front design copied from Mercedes. C5 👌👌
C5 look like Dacia Duster
I owed a diesel duster for 6 months the duster has a hard ride that will leave you with a back ache in only short distances, it was so bad I had to sit on a cushion for longer journeys, the duster is not built for comfort, when I picked up my C5 Aircross in Oct 2022 I drove it 150 miles straight away in pouring rain, and it was so comfortable I didnt want to get out at the end of the journey.
Xuv 700 top line better
🤡🤡
Lacks quality and reliability
Bro, these cars are 2 times more the price
Terribly expensive the aircross. Will target only a few potential buyers.
Jeep is to unreliable lots of problems
Don’t you think Harrier is of the same segment and should be included? 😏
😂😂🤣🤣
Bro wut?
LOL
Harrier with these, bro high on weed or what 😳
😂😂😂😂😂
You only bashed C5 in this review. c5's width is far more than that of Hyundai's. You said 3 people will not be as comfortable as Hyundai in C5.. Such a paid review for Hyundai.
Both these care are rubbish ,
please don't say that tata is better than these😂
it all depends how deep your pockets are
Wrong numbers. The standard 4,50m Tucson has a 616L boot. So the longer version can not have only 540L.
Both are overpriced, skip these and get an XUV 700
🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's an experimental product with a lot of flaws and substandard quality , you become Mahindra's Lab rats 😂 ( tata mahindra treat their Indian customers like this 😒 )
or a Duster 😂
Bro🤣🤣🤣, harrier is competition of creta, not tuscon
Bring other two compass and Tiguan.Than only this comparison matters
