[edit] Body styles

Shouldn't the type be hatchback instead of sedan?? --LimoWreck 18:46, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Your are right, it's not a hatchback; it is a liftback, like other large family cars: Ford Mondeo, Citroën Xantia, Opel Vectra, Renault Laguna... -- NaBUru38 20:24, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
I don't understand the "unlike it's predecessors" part... the rear-end styling looks quite similar to the Xantia to me. Janm67 10:31, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Replacement

Everything I've read suggests the C5 will be replaced in 2008 and not 2007 as noted in this article. Template:Unnamed

[edit] Oversimplification

It seems oversimplistic to state that the C5 replaced the Xantia. It effectively replaced both the Xantia and the XM, and is much closer in size and trim levels to the latter.

It's probably therefore worth amending the table to describe the C5 as a small executive car (and arguably too small, hence the extremely costly development of the C6), the C4 as a large family car, the C3 as a small family car, the C2 as a supermini, and the C1 as a city car. This would better reflect the realignment in model placements of the C-series models over the X-series models. 82.36.26.229 17:55, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
