Why buy an approved used Citroen C5 X?
Citroen has quickly become an established name in the SUV segment thanks to the huge success of the C5 X and its smaller but equally impressive stablemate, the Citroen C3 Aircross.
Introduced in 2017, the Citroen C5 X quickly found good footing in the mid-size SUV segment thanks to several market-leading qualities – those being its distinctive styling, smart practicality features and outstanding comfort levels.
Review our range of used Citroen C5 X SUVs for sale and the first thing that you’ll notice is the concept-like aesthetic that immediately sets the C5 X apart from the competition. Undoubtedly the biggest head-turner in its category, the C5 X's futuristic front grille and smooth lines epitomise Citroen’s unconventional design mantra. There is, however, plenty more to the C5 X than good looks.
The substance behind the style lies in two key areas: practicality and comfort. Practicality wise, the C5 X is spacious, offers up a generous amount of equipment as standard and boasts a range of efficient engines. Couple that with the benefits of Citroen’s Advanced Comfort programme – which gives you super-soft seats and innovative suspension – and you have a family SUV with a smart sensibility that belies the quirkiness of the exterior design.
Any second-hand Citroen C5 X you buy comes with the backing of several awards. It took home its second consecutive Comfort Award at the annual carwow Car of the Year Awards, while What Car? dubbed the C5 X the best large SUV for value in both 2021 and 2022.
Which second-hand Citroen C5 X should I buy?
The used Citroen C5 X range comprises of two generations of trim levels. The earlier generation of second-hand C5 X cars (2017-late 2020) comes in three primary trim levels – Feel, Flair and Flair Plus – while the newer generation (late 2020 present) introduced four new primary trim levels: Sense, Shine, C-Series and Shine Plus.
The original three core trims offer the following:
- Used Citroen C5 X Feel: The entry-level trim for used C5 X models prior to December 2020, the Feel trim offers an excellent level of equipment as standard, including a great safety package (advanced active safety brake, lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, collision risk warning), an 8” touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity and Citroen Connect Box emergency and assistance system.
- Used Citroen C5 X Flair: The mid-level Flair trim adds satellite navigation and reversing and built-in dash cameras to the Feel package.
- Used Citroen C5 X Flair Plus: Flair Plus adds wireless phone charging, highway driver assist and intelligent beam headlights to the already generous safety package provided.
The newer trim range incorporates a variety of feature combinations that offer some crossover with the older trim packages as well as some upgrades. You can find out more about what’s available with the newer trim levels here, or check individual model listings for more information.

Used Citroen C5 X FAQs
Are used Citroen C5 X SUVs reliable?
Citroen as a brand is considered to be “quite reliable”, as per OSV, with the brand placing relatively highly in a number of reliability indexes. With that in mind, a used Citroen C5 X should provide you with a solidly reliable car, as with the rest of the used Citroen range.
How safe is a used Citroen C5 X?
Without a safety pack included, the C5 X achieved a four-star rating from safety experts Euro NCAP, including great scores for adult (87%) and child (86%) occupancy. With the safety pack included, the C5 X enjoys a full five-star rating, including an impressively high 82% score on safety assists.
How big is a second-hand Citroen C5 X?
You get plenty of space with a used Citroen C5 X, with the SUV measuring up at 4.5m long, 1.859m wide and 1.67m tall. This positions it nicely in the mid-to-large-size SUV segment. It’s very similar in size to the Peugeot 5008, which shares the same underpinnings, however the 5008 is a seven-seater while the C5 X sticks to five seats, which means that you’ll have plenty of legroom in the Citroen.
What sort of mileage can I expect from a Citroen C5 X used model?
The most frugal engine in the used C5 X family, the 1.5 BlueHDi 130 diesel, will return an impressive figure of around 55mpg with the six-speed manual gearbox (or 56mpg with the eight-speed automatic). The larger 2.0 litre Blue HDi diesel will still offer around 47mpg which, coupled with the used C5 X's affordable price point and solid running costs, make it an economically sound package.
How much is a used Citroen C5 X?
