Environment

HDi technology

HDi engines are top of the range. Polluting less and using less fuel than conventional diesel engines, they cut CO2 emissions and fuel consumption by 20%. They also use an electronically controlled system to optimise the air/fuel mix and reduce emissions.

Particulate filter

The Diesel Particulate Filter System (DPFS) on the HDi engines helps protect the environment by trapping and burning particles produced by the engine. This means that the particulate emissions of the Citroën C5 drop to barely measurable levels that are beyond even future EU environmental standards.

Sustainable development

The Citroën C5 Saloon is built in France at our Rennes site, where we’ve invested heavily in the environment and in sustainable development. Our industrial facilities use the latest technologies and the site has ISO 14001 certification.
