Overview


The Citroën e-C5 Aircross is a family-friendly all-electric SUV which comes in both Comfort Range, and Extended Range models. The sleek, boxy style means that this EV can be both used as a family run-around car, but also it is smart enough to be used for more formal occasions too. The long range model especially means that you will be able to undertake large road trips with friends and family without the need to worry about charging, perhaps until you return home. This fully electric vehicle is compatible with the latest Electric Car Grant, meaning that it is easier than ever to electrify your driving.
