ATHLETIC AESTHETICS. NOWHERE ARE

OPPOSITES MORE ATTRACTIVE THAN ON
THE CITROËN C5’S EXTERIOR STYLING.
FROM THE ELEGANT, ENERGETIC LINES OF THE SALOON TO THE FLOWING DYNAMISM OF THE TOURER,
THE CitroËn C5 STRIKES A STUNNING BALANCE BETWEEN REFINED STYLE AND SPORTY EXUBERANCE.
IT’S A CAR THAT’S BUILT TO TURN HEADS AS QUICKLY AS IT DOES CORNERS.

 THE SALOON: ART AND POWER
From any angle, the Citroën C5 saloon inspires awe and desire. 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 with integrated
daytime-running LEDs. 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. The centrepiece is a clean, uncluttered
console with air conditioning seamlessly incorporated into the design – including dual-zone
automatic air conditioning on VTR+ NAV and Exclusive models.

TRAVEL IN SPACE
Not to be outdone for size, the Citroën C5 has one of the longest wheelbases in its
segment. What’s more, its generous dimensions deliver a roomy interior for exceptional
passenger comfort and load-carrying. In essence, it’s a spacious vehicle packed with many
more little luxuries.

PEACEFUL OASIS
Drive-comfort is at the heart of the
Citroën C5 and it has numerous advanced
soundproofing features to wrap you in
your own haven of tranquillity. With
triple door seals, reinforced roof lining
and an acoustic windscreen, the Citroën
C5’s insulating innovations exceed all
expectations for an executive saloon.
On Exclusive models, you even enjoy
laminated side windows for total isolation
from the outside world.

CONTROLLED POWER. YOUR HEART WANTS TO PUMP.
YOUR HEAD WANTS TO CONTROL. 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 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 one petrol and four 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 on Exclusive models is a
powerful hub of information, communication
and even entertainment. It gives you
GPS navigation, live traffic updates and
a Bluetooth® system with USB socket.
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.
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.

INTELLIGENT INSTINCT
The Citroën eTouch Emergency and Assistance
System on Exclusive models is a bold step
forward in security at the press of a button.
Or two. In the event of an accident or sudden
health problem, one push of the ‘SOS’ button
will instantly contact the emergency services.
If there’s a more serious incident, SOS activates
automatically. After a breakdown, one push
on the ‘chevron’ button will alert Citroën
Assistance, sending both location details
and an initial fault report. Further innovations
include Eco Driving and an on-line maintenance
guide which help optimise driving style for
efficiency and monitor maintenance needs or
possible problems, through a personal web
account at MyCITROËN.

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.

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
HDi 110 manual 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
0.5 litres per 100km (in combined cycle),
resulting in a reduction in CO2 emissions of
nearly 19g/km and around one tonne less CO2
over the entire life of a Citroën C5.

BIG IDEAS, SMALL FOOTPRINT

15 years of development have gone into our
HDi direct injection engines, making them
refined and frugal. In combination with a
beautifully simple Stop & Start system and
sophisticated EGS gearbox, the e-HDi 110
Airdream EGS6 can achieve 62.8mpg and
CO2 emissions of only 117g/km.
The EGS gearbox is an advanced transmission
that lets you select either effortless full automatic
shifts, or manual changes via the steering
wheel mounted paddles. It’s part of what
makes Citroën efficient engineering unique.
Stop & Start puts the engine into idle mode as
you decelerate and stops altogether as you come
to a halt. The moment you take your foot off the
brake, it restarts silently and without vibration.
It helps to reduce CO2 by about 5g/km and
fuel consumption by 15% in the city.
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.

ADAPT TO IMPACT
With a reinforced outer shell, the Citroën C5 has been
designed for endurance as well as performance. The front
end features upper and lower energy absorbers which provide
cushioning on impact, while the cabin structure is also
reinforced to create a strong passenger survival cell.
In the Citroën C5, you and your passengers are obsessively
protected from every direction – with up to nine airbags
cushioning against front, side and head impact. In the
passenger seat, there’s optional airbag de-activation and
importantly for the driver, not only does the steering column
retract by 65mm, but thanks to the fixed-centred controls
steering wheel, your airbag always deploys at the safest
possible angle.

STRENGTH AND POISE

Even when it’s stopped, the Citroën C5 doesn’t sleep. It’s
constantly on alert for dangerous situations, with anti-theft alarm
and deadlocks fitted as standard. Automatic re-locking after
30 seconds gives you extra peace of mind, and with protective
laminated side windows fitted on Exclusive models to guard
against intruders, the Citroën C5 is reassuringly defended.

14

SAFETY

HARNESSING PROTECTION
Even the most basic details – such as seat
belts – have been thoroughly considered.
The Citroën C5’s front seat belts
are height-adjustable and fitted with
force-limiters. Isofix anchor points are
also standard – with two on either side
of the rear seat. All of which makes the
Citroën C5 an exceptionally secure place
for adults and children.

COMMITMENT

INTRODUCING A MORE
ECOLOGICAL Car
The Citroën C-Cactus concept, a car designed
on ecological principles. It includes a significant
proportion of recycled or recyclable materials
and, like the plant it is named after, it is low on
liquid consumption. At the same time, Citroën
C-Cactus is designed to be no more expensive
than a mid-range family car. This can be
attributed to the use of new materials and to a
rational design process using a smaller number
of parts. Citroën C-Cactus is an essential
vehicle reflecting a new vision of the car, many
of its thoughts and themes will appear in
modern Citroën vehicles to come.

GLOSSARY
FIXED-CENTRED CONTROLS
STEERING WHEEL
A Citroën innovation that makes for safer
driving in every way. Whilst the rim of the
steering wheel turns normally, the centre
hub remains static which means that all
the audio, information and driving controls
operated from here stay in exactly the same
place. It also means that the driver’s airbag
can be specially sculpted to deploy more
favourably than the round ones necessary
in cars with conventional steering wheels.
HYDRACTIVE 3+
SUSPENSION
An outstanding Citroën invention built on
the company’s renowned hydropneumatic
sphere platform, Hydractive 3+ suspension
offers the ultimate in driver control and
passenger comfort. To begin with, the
car maintains a constant ride height at
all times regardless of load (either weight
or force) which ensures excellent driver
control. In addition, electronic sensors
read the road and driving style hundreds
of times a second and adapt the hydraulic
damping accordingly, maintaining perfect
poise. The driver is also able to select
two different suspension modes designed
for varying degrees of comfort or sporty
driving. The system is maintenance free
for five years or 200,000km.
CONNECTING BOX
Integrated Bluetooth® hands-free phone
function with USB socket and jack to plug
in a portable MP3 player.
34
MYWAY COLOUR SATELLITE
NAVIGATION
MyWay is completely integrated into the
vehicle which avoids the risk of theft.
The design has been created for ease
of use and with steering wheel controls,
navigating from your phone to the satellite
navigation couldn’t be any easier.
MyWay allows you to define routes, stops
and places of interest with the added
benefit of vocal instruction. MyWay
also provides live traffic updates of any
congestion spots or delays.
A GPS integrated aerial is built into the
vehicle, to maximise the reception of
satellite information; therefore permitting
an accurate location of the car.
ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING
SYSTEM (AFS)
Designed specifically to aid safety when
driving in the dark, Citroën C5’s static
AFS provides an extra light at the front
when turning a corner at low speeds.
Also, see Xenon dual-function Directional
Headlamps with cornering lights for
dynamic AFS.
PHILIPS HI-FI SYSTEM
The Philips Hi-Fi system has just some
of the following features: Dolby surround
sound, made to measure acoustics,
spatial sounds specially developed
and configurated for the passenger
compartment, 1 subwoofer, high digital
signal processor, digital amplifier and
8 Philips speakers.
XENON DUAL-FUNCTION
DIRECTIONAL HEADLAMPS
WITH CORNERING LIGHTS
A dynamic AFS with lamps that respond to
the steering, adjusting the direction of the
beam in the direction of the turn by up to
15 degrees. These headlamps contain a
directional twin xenon elliptical module for
use in the dipped and full-beam positions,
and a complex surface “long-range”
halogen unit for full-beam only. This
combined assembly delivers an extremely
high level of forward visibility.
HIGH-PRESSURE DIRECT
INJECTION DIESEL ENGINE
Our HDi diesel engines operate with the
fuel under extremely high pressure,
enabling microscopically precise injection
control. With this level of management
it’s possible to inject at different times
during the same engine stroke allowing
total control over the combustion
process. This has allowed our engineers
to reduce carbon monoxide emissions
by 40%, unburned hydrocarbons by
50% and engine particulates by 60%.
Fuel consumption is 20% lower than a
prechamber diesel engine, resulting in
an equivalent reduction in CO2 emissions
and thanks to the torque available at low
engine speed it could be argued that
driveability is now better than in petrol
engined cars.
e-HDi DIESEL ENGINE
The e-HDi 110 Airdream EGS6 engine
is capable of 62.8mpg and CO2
emissions of just 117g/km combined
with the EGS gearbox. It has a reversible
starter-alternator that works in tandem
with an e-booster to provide a seamless
Stop & Start function. Going further
than other similar systems, the e-HDi’s
Stop & Start puts the engine into idle
mode while decelerating before coming
to a complete standstill. This reduces
consumption by 15% in urban driving.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS)
Computer-controlled braking assistance
designed to prevent the wheels from
locking under extreme braking. This
enables the car to continue being steered
and therefore controlled during this
braking incident. The Citroën C5’s ABS
system is further enhanced with EBA and
EBD (see below).
ELECTRONIC BRAKEFORCE
DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
A conventional ABS system cannot
account for any of the four wheels wanting
to lock more quickly than the others (for
example, two of the wheels may be on
snow and two on tarmac). EBD reads the
deceleration rate of each wheel individually
and applies the ABS principles accordingly.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE (EBA)
As drivers we find it difficult to instinctively
brake very hard, but this is often what is
needed in those rare emergency situations.
The EBA system recognises our ‘attempt’
to brake hard and in combination with the
ABS and EBD systems instantly applies the
maximum stopping power possible.
ELECTRONIC STABILITY
PROGRAMME (ESP)
This is computer-controlled traction
assistance and is provided primarily
through the braking systems. The ESP’s
control unit constantly compares where the
driver intends going (through the position
of the steering wheel) with where the
vehicle is actually going and, if necessary,
makes speed corrections to each wheel
individually through braking or engine
torque to keep the vehicle ‘in line’.
ISOFIX
A standardised and more simple method
for installing child seats, each seat is
‘clicked’ into place via a three point
system. On the Citroën C5, Isofix is
installed on the two outer rear seats.
