Citroën for the most part, is a silent player in our market. But no one can deny that their cars grab a second look, thanks to their quirky design. The Citroen C5 Aircross is a crossover that stands out for this very reason in the otherwise dreary sea of tepid competition. Now, it is getting a facelift.
When it comes to funky car designs, Citroën sits tightly on the throne. And now they have broken out all their craziness to produce 2022 Citroën C5 X, giving company to the Peugeot 508 and DS9 as sister-model flagships.

The luxury car market is an ever-growing space and mainstream brands from around the world have been trying to grab their piece which is otherwise dominated by the German brands.

They have entered the luxury sedan segment with a new model, christened 2021 DS 9. The plug-in-hybrid sedan comes with a handsome design and a lot of tech to lock horns with the established rivals.
