C5 AIRCROSS HYBRID 136!
Citroën presents an all-new engine for C5 Aircross: the Hybrid 136. Based on the compact and lightweight Hybrid 48V technology, it is made up of a 48V battery that recharges during some driving phases, and a 136 hp PureTech petrol engine designed specifically to adapt to this new hybrid system, and coupled to a new ë-DCS6 gearbox with a 21 kW electric motor.

Simple and fluid in its use, this hybrid technology is perfectly suited for the highly versatile C5 Aircross. With only 129g of CO2/km emission according to the combined WLTP cycle, the C5 Aircross Hybrid 136 version emits 15% less CO2 than the equivalent non-electric petrol version. It is priced close to a diesel version with an equivalent engine and emits almost 12% less CO2 than the latter. It also brings all the electric mobility benefits, from enhanced driving pleasure to the possibility to drive in low emission zones. The Hybrid 136 is therefore particularly attractive on the C5 Aircross, an SUV that stands out from other vehicles in its segment thanks to its unique design and attitude, as well as its comfort and its modularity on-board.
The Hybrid 136 completes the C5 Aircross electrified range, which includes the plug-in Hybrid 180 and plug-in Hybrid 225. They already account for 40% of total C5 Aircross sales. More generally, it enhances and accelerates Citroën’s electrification strategy, made up of 10 models: from the Hybrid to the 100% electric and the Plug-in Hybrid, from the Ami to the C5 X, from passenger cars to commercial vehicles, each time with the aim of offering a solution tailored to customer needs, while keeping the budget under control.
C5 Aircross Hybrid 136 Ë-DCS6: EASY access to electric mobility
With this new hybrid engine, Citroën offers a new electrified alternative that provides all the comfort of purely electric driving, saves fuel and reduces CO2 emissions, while keeping costs under control.
The C5 Aircross Hybrid 136 can be driven in electric mode in the city, on the road with a gentle touch or during manoeuvres. In the city, this hybrid version can make up to 50% of journeys in 100% electric mode, with zero emissions and vibration-free. Thanks to the benefits of purely electric driving, on-board well-being is enhanced during daily journeys in town or on the road.
The 48V HYBRID technology optimises the performance and fuel consumption of the C5 Aircross, average fuel saving of 1 litre/100km (i.e. 15%) compared with the PureTech 130 EAT8 petrol engine. It should be noted that this engine is very efficient in urban driving conditions with an average fuel saving of almost 30%.
It also has a positive impact on CO2 emissions: they can be reduced by up to 15% (20g) compared with the PureTech 130 S&S EAT8 petrol engine. With 129g of CO2/km (according to the combined WLTP cycle and version), the C5 Aircross Hybrid 136 ë-DCS6 offers the freedom to drive without constraints in many areas with traffic restrictions.
