Citroen C5 3.0i V6 Review: French kiss...

Citroen is hoping that its new C5 will take a bite out of its rivals' market share, and based on initial impression, it potentially can. So what exactly does it need now then? Marketing effort - a whole lot of it...

Prices for the C5 start from $108,988 for the base 2.0-litre model, which is about 10 percent pricier than the usual large Japanese saloon. But check this out - even for the 2.0-litre base model, the C5 is comprehensively equipped with kits like the Hydractive III + suspension, seven airbags, front and rear parking sensors, electrically adjustable front seats, self-dimming mirrors, 17-inch alloys and factory-fitted stereo.

The 3.0-litre V6 here is listed at $136,888 with COE. You’ll not only get more power and better performance with the V6, but also a much smoother and refined engine that suits the C5’s serene character as well.

There’s a lot going for with the new C5. Most importantly though, it gains back the character, style and quirkiness that its other mundane and ordinary predecessor lacks.
