— The SUV that wears gold accents like a Paris runway model and swallows luggage like a joint family’s Diwali trip
Chennai:
Citroën India has just pulled the wraps off the New Aircross X, the latest and perhaps the most stylish member of its growing “X-Series” family. Priced from an introductory ₹8.29 lakh, the Aircross X isn’t just another SUV—it’s a heady mix of Parisian elegance, Indian practicality, and a dash of tech wizardry, all wrapped up in a Deep Forest Green paint job that looks like it belongs in both the Louvre and Ladakh.
🪄 X Marks the Smart Spot
The Aircross X joins the recently launched Basalt X and C3X, carrying forward Citroën’s “Shift Into the New” strategy—essentially, a promise to make cars that are stylish, comfortable, and smarter than your average co-passenger. And boy, is this one clever.
Inside, you’re greeted by a leatherette-wrapped dashboard with chic gold accents, a bezel-less 10.25-inch infotainment display, and ambient lighting that could give a lounge bar a complex. There’s even a redesigned gear lever—because nothing says ‘new model’ like a different way to shift into reverse.
And then there’s CARA, India’s first multilingual in-car companion. She speaks 52 languages, can control your lights, locks, and even tell you the cricket score—all without the passive-aggressive “Did you mean…?” you get from your phone assistant.
🛋️ Ride Comfort: Like a Flying Carpet with AC
Citroën’s signature Advanced Comfort Suspension continues to deliver that famous “flying carpet ride”—which is French for “say goodbye to backaches on pothole-strewn highways.” Add roof-mounted AC vents for second and third rows, ventilated seats up front, and 511 litres of boot space, and you have an SUV ready for everything from school runs to Srinagar road trips.
The Aircross X is available in both 5- and 7-seater configurations, because Citroën knows Indian families expand faster than housing colonies.
🌍 Design That Says Bonjour and Namaste
Outside, the dual-tone body, signature DRLs, and bold SUV stance give the Aircross X a premium look, while the new Deep Forest Green paint ensures it blends beautifully with both metropolitan skylines and muddy monsoon trails.
Under the hood, there are two engine options and both ICE and CNG variants, proving that Citroën’s idea of ‘choice’ doesn’t end at body colours.
🛡️ Safety First, Style a Close Second
Fresh from earning a 5-star BNCAP safety rating for adult protection, the Aircross 5S DNA runs through the X model as well. Six airbags, ESP, hill hold, ABS with EBD, LED projectors, speed limiter, auto IRVM—basically, it has more safety features than a Formula 1 pit lane.
💬 Official Soundbite (With a Hint of Flair)
Kumar Priyesh, Business Head & Director – Automotive Brands, Stellantis India, summed it up neatly:
“The New Aircross X is designed around the real needs of Indian families—space, comfort, safety, and smart innovation. It blends the practicality of a family SUV with the premium feel of our X-Series design.”
Translation: “We made it posh, comfy, and smart—so your in-laws can’t complain.”
🏁 Bookings Open – French SUV, Indian Festive Timing
Bookings are officially open at Citroën dealerships across India and online at www.citroen.in. With 10 exterior colours, multiple interior trims, and a tech suite that talks back (politely), the Aircross X is Citroën’s most compelling India play yet.
If SUVs were house guests, the Aircross X is that rare visitor who’s stylish, well-mannered, brings gifts, and doesn’t mind your entire extended family tagging along.
