      Striking Design, Excellent Comfort and Superb to Drive. Easy to drive on the city roads and solid performance on the highways. Lacking basic features such as powered passenger seats and ventilated seats, since they claim comfort as their forte.

      the C5 Aircross fulfils its promise of being one of the most comfortable SUVs in its class, with a roomy boot and adequate, if not exceptional, rear seat space.

      I believe the C5 Aircross is overpriced in India. starting at 35 lakhs on the road and going all the way to 38 lakhs. People in this area prefer the basic models of the Endeavour or Fortuner over the C5 Aircross.
