The C5 Aircross costs a roughly similar amount to the Nissan Qashqai and Hyundai Tucson – both very popular cars - but costs a wee bit less than the Volkswagen Tiguan. The Citroen also sits on a par with the Nissan and Hyundai on the strength of its resale values, and a little way behind the VW, which serves to even up the long-term running costs between the three. Choose your version wisely, though, and the Citroen’s figures for fuel consumption and emissions are markedly better than those of its rivals, giving it a very slight edge in overall running costs. Overall, then, the C5 Aircross should prove to be a sound financial bet.
