Set for a local launch sometime during the third quarter of next year, the ground-breaking new model will be available in both sedan and wagon body styles, with the latest iteration of the company's renowned 'Hydractive' (hydro-pneumatic) suspension, 'Hydractive 3 Plus', operating in a double-wishbone front and multi-link rear configuration.
Specification and pricing for Australia won't be decided for some time yet, but the C5 will likely feature up to nine airbags when it arrives here.
A selection of three petrol engines and four diesel engines will be available in different global markets and the C5 will be sold with V6 engines in either petrol or diesel induction form, the other engines available being fours in different capacities and states of tune.
