Citroën India has unveiled the New Aircross X, the latest addition to its X-Series lineup, with introductory pricing starting at ₹8.29 lakh. The launch forms part of the company’s “Citroën 2.0 – Shift Into the New” strategic initiative.
The New Aircross X joins the recently launched Basalt X and C3X models in expanding Citroën’s presence in the Indian SUV market. The vehicle is available in both 5-seater and 7-seater configurations.
The SUV features several interior enhancements, including ventilated leatherette seats, a bezel-less 10.25-inch infotainment system, and a 7-inch digital cluster. The cabin includes soft-touch leatherette wrapping on the instrument panel with gold accents, diffused ambient lighting, and footwell lighting. A new “Deep Forest Green” color option has been added to the palette.
The vehicle offers 511 liters of boot space and maintains a 200mm ground clearance. Citroën’s Advanced Comfort Suspension system is included across variants.
A notable feature is CARA (Citroën Assistant with Remote Access), described as India’s first multilingual, context-aware in-car companion. The system supports 52 languages and can switch between them mid-conversation. CARA provides voice-activated controls for vehicle functions, connectivity features including music and calls, and safety functions such as voice SOS and crash alerts.
Other features include a HALO 360-degree camera with satellite view, Proxi-Sense passive entry and push start, cruise control, auto-dimming inside rearview mirror, and LED projector fog lamps.
The Aircross 5S variant received a 5-star safety rating for adult protection in the Bharat New Car Assessment Program (BNCAP) earlier this week. Standard safety equipment includes six airbags, ESP, hill hold assist, ABS with EBD, and rear parking sensors across variants.
The New Aircross X is offered with three powertrain options: a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine (Puretech 82 MT), a 1.2-liter turbocharged petrol engine with manual transmission (Puretech 110 MT), and the same turbocharged engine with automatic transmission (Puretech 110 AT). A CNG option is available as a dealer-fitted accessory.
Pricing Structure
The pricing ranges from ₹8.29 lakh for the base YOU variant with the naturally aspirated engine to ₹13.49 lakh for the top-spec MAX AT variant. The HALO 360-degree camera is available as a mandatory accessory pack for ₹25,000 on the MAX variant, while dual-tone roof options cost an additional ₹20,000.
CARA is offered complimentary on the MAX Automatic variant for initial bookings.
Kumar Priyesh, Business Head and Director of Automotive Brands at Stellantis India, stated that the vehicle addresses the needs of Indian families for space, comfort, safety, and innovation while maintaining accessibility.
