Citroen C5 and DS5 updates

Citroen has announced updates for its C5 and DS5 ranges, including revised styling and new options. The C5 has received a light facelift to bring it in line with other models, featuring new chevrons and enhanced curves. Also available are optional alloy wheels and a pearlescent ‘Guaranja Brown’ paint job. Citroen’s family car, which is available as a saloon or Tourer estate, can now also be specified with a Techno Pack, which includes uprated alloy wheels, parking sensors and sat-nav. The pack commands a £700 premium and can be specified on top of any existing spec. At the same time, Citroen has announced a number of new options on the luxury DS5, including new eco-friendly wheels and an exclusive option pack. The introduction of 17-inch Houston alloy wheels as a no-cost option on the Hybrid4 DStyle and DSport versions reduces the CO2 emissions from 107g/km to 99g/km. This pushes both models into the all important free road tax band. For a more aggressive look, the Signature pack is available on the DS5 HDi 160 DStyle and DSport models. It adds lowered suspension, gloss black door mirrors and 19-inch alloy wheels. This option pack is available now and costs £650. On higher powered DS5 THP 200 models, the Signature pack is added as standard.
