Citroen C5 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2008–2017) — Second Generation

The second-generation Citroen C5 arrived as a comfort-focused family car, offered as a practical Estate 5-door and a Sedan, with a calm ride and a broad spread of gasoline and diesel powertrains.

Citroen C5 Engines and Transmissions

Citroen C5 engine options cover both fuels. The 2.2 AT pairs a diesel with an automatic in the Estate 5-door, favouring relaxed motorway cruising, while the 1.6 MT gives manual control with gasoline. The Sedan's 1.6 ESG uses a robotic transmission; all these examples drive the front wheels.

Citroen C5 Trims and Equipment

Citroen C5 trim levels sit on top of the mechanical package rather than changing it. The 1.6 AT Estate 5-door, for instance, appears as Confort or Exclusive: the same gasoline automatic drivetrain, but differing comfort, upholstery and convenience equipment, so check each car's actual specification.
