Parking assist
Parking sensors make manoeuvring easier and are an essential part of city driving:
- ultrasonic sensors in the bumpers sense any obstacles close to the car;
- the system emits an audible beep and shows the proximity and location of the obstacles on the onboard computer screen.The hill-start assist function works with the electric parking brake to keep your vehicle steady for two seconds when you release the brake pedal on a slope of over 3%. This gives you time to move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator.
Cruise control
Cruise control and speed limiter
The cruise control/speed limiter function with steering-wheel controls contributes to a relaxed driving experience:
- cruise control keeps the vehicle at a set speed without using the accelerator pedal;
- the speed limiter keeps the vehicle within the limit selected by the driver;
- the cruise control/speed limiter can be turned off, using the button on the steering wheel, for example, or by pressing hard on the accelerator.
Halogen
Halogen lights
The Citroën C5’s halogen headlamps let you anticipate bends in the road.
They include adaptive front lighting covering an angle of up to 75° on the right- or left-hand side of the vehicle.
Along with daytime-running lights, these functions make sure that you can be easily seen on the road.

- Emergency Braking Assistance (EBA) that boosts braking power instantly when the driver presses hard on the brake pedal.
ESP
Advanced safety braking
ESP (Electronic Stability Programme) helps the driver keep the car under control even in the most difficult situations:
– acts on brakeforce distribution and engine speed to keeps the car on course if it loses grip when cornering;
