CARBARN | CITROEN C5 (2012) | Cycle & Carriage France is pleased to announce the launch of the new CITROËN C5 with styling and technology upgrades. Two major changes have been made to the power and drive trains, with the CITROËN C5 now featuring a 1.6 litre power plant co-developed with the BMW Group and a 6-speed automatic transmission.
Active day and night and combined with a light guide, they subtly strengthen the car’s light signature. The three dials feature annular needles, symbolising an advanced level of technology. The left-hand dial displays the fuel level and speed limiter/cruise control data, while the right-hand dial shows the rev counter and, depending on the versions, the current mode or speed on the instrument cluster. On the EXCLUSIVE variant, an automatic electric parking brake provides enhanced comfort and safety.
