On the cosmetic front, the C5 Aircross concept’s styling is vastly different from the car it will eventually replace, and is designed as per Citroen’s new design language. It gets a boxier, more upright silhouette giving it a rugged appearance. Up front, the concept vehicle has hints of the European-spec C3 Aircross such as the three-point light signature that combines horizontal DRLs and vertically-stacked headlamps on either side.

The C5 Aircross concept has an extended rear overhang to improve aerodynamic efficiency
The imposing appearance of the vehicle is enhanced by the flared wheel arches and large chunky wheels. A few interesting design details are the extended rear overhang, and the tail lamps which are a combination of two fins mounted on each side, towards the C-pillar, and two horizontal lines on either side of the Citroen logo at the rear.
