French auto giant Citroen has pulled out the entry-level variant of the C5 Aircross, its most expensive SUV in India. The carmaker has officially withdrawn the Feel variant of the premium SUV from its website. The C5 Aircross is now available only in Shine variant. The SUV, which marked Citroen's entry in India in April 2021, will see its price go up by more than ₹3 lakh after the removal of the entry-level variant.

Citroen had launched the facelift version of the C5 Aircross SUV back in 2022. It came with a starting price of ₹36.67 lakh (ex-showroom). The price of the entry-level variant went up to ₹36.91 lakh (ex-showroom) before the Feel variant was discontinued. The SUV is now offered with Shine and Shine dual-tone options. The price of the variant is ₹39.99 lakh (ex-showroom), around ₹3.08 lakh more than the previous entry-level variant.

The entry-level C5 Aircross SUV was a more affordable version of the model with less features. It did not offer some of the features the Shine variant offers. These include the panoramic sunroof, wireless charger and a powered tailgate among others.
