      Striking Design, Excellent Comfort and Superb to Drive. Easy to drive on the city roads and solid performance on the highways. Lacking basic features such as powered passenger seats and ventilated seats, since they claim comfort as their forte.

      the C5 Aircross fulfils its promise of being one of the most comfortable SUVs in its class, with a roomy boot and adequate, if not exceptional, rear seat space.

      I believe the C5 Aircross is overpriced in India. starting at 35 lakhs on the road and going all the way to 38 lakhs. People in this area prefer the basic models of the Endeavour or Fortuner over the C5 Aircross.

      Significantly better than other lithium-ion battery packs, making it safer in the event of an accident. The steering has the right amount of heft and both the accelerator and brake pedals are calibrated well to elicit responses in a predictable, progressive manner.

      Styling blends sportiness and aggression with the SUV form factor quite well. Looks magnificent enough for its price. Interior is more eye-catching. Contours on the dashboard, the unconventional door handles integrated with the speakers, cylindrical aircon vents, or the funky-looking strings to hold whatever?s in the door pockets in place, most of the elements in here scream off-beat.
