The C5 combines performance and comfort to deliver a ride worthy of an executive vehicle:

- the sophisticated running gear (inherited from the C6) soaks up any bumps or dips in the road surface;
- the choice of suspension (Hydractive III+ or metal) satisfies all driving styles and requirements;
- standard ESP (Electronic Stability Programme) and the Intelligent Traction Control keep the car on course

The Hydractive 3+ suspension makes for a safe, comfortable ride by:

- adapting automatically to road conditions and driver input
- keeping the car at a constant height, regardless of its load
- offering a sport mode for a more dynamic ride, giving you more driving pleasure and thrills behind the wheel
- letting you choose between a soft and firm stiffness setting.

The Citroën C5’s metallic suspension gives a more direct road feel for sportier driving. It’s been perfected to set high standards in both ride and comfort.
