2022 Hyundai Tucson vs Citroen C5 Aircross facelift: Overdrive gets a comparison review

Last year, the Citroen C5 Aircross was our clear favourite if you wanted a large, five-seat SUV that offered an elevated driving experience but didn't need you to reach out for the full-fat luxury brands.

The C5 Aircross was the most radical-looking crossover in this space until last year. But now the Tucson sets new benchmarks with elements like these discrete DRLs (daytime running light) in the grille or those sharp character lines.

Both cars look new age, but the Tucson has a more aggressive stance and in-your-face styling. If this design is too shouty for you, the C5 could see more appealing and polished in comparison. The C5 is wider and taller, and the more upright nose gives it a commanding stance.
