The new C5, due on sale late 2007 is a much more
attractive
if less idiosyncratic offering than its predecessor.
Featuring a wider
track and lower profile, it will be equipped with
hydractive
suspension, an automatic parking brake, LED tail
lights, etc.
Built in Rennes-la-Janais, the new model will share
engines,
gearboxes and numerous other components with the
Peugeot 407, though
Citroën states that 99 per cent of all visible parts
will be
specifically designed for the new C5.
Like the C4 and C4
Picasso, the new C5 has a four-spoke steering wheel
with a fixed centre
section housing numerous controls for all kinds of
functions.
Caveat lector - at the time of writing (17th
October 2007) there is little hard information
available.
