  • Big on boot space with more than 520 L of space.
  • Exceptionally well in terms of ride quality.
  • The 8-speed gearbox is quick in shifts.
  • The new design is youthful yet understated, typical of a Volkswagen.
  • The 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine has been retained and produces more power.
  • The interiors feel premium and the ambient lighting panels look cool.
  • The inclusion of 4MOTION all-wheel drive helps in some light off-roading.
Cons
  • Body roll can be felt.
  • Riding at low speeds can be bumpy.
  • Engine NVH levels could have been improved
  • No petrol powertrain on offer
  • No 4X4 or AWD option is available.
  • 19 inch wheels rob the R-Line of a comfortable low speed ride.
  • Essential features missing - no powered seats or tailgate, no true keyless entry etc.
  • Though seats are incredibly sporty, they aren't spacious for a large adult.
  • Too much reliance on the touch-screen for day to day functions.

      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.
