Recommended model two: Citroën Versailles C5 X
Guidance price: 143,700-186,700
Model highlights: the ceiling of the B-class car, the design details reveal the romance in the bones of the French
When it comes to France, it is more defined as romantic, romantic Frenchman, who has always had his own unique ideas and insights in car design. Citroën's new Versailles C5 X brings us a lot of surprises.
In terms of design, first of all, it is difficult to define what versailles C5 X is a model, the body of the sedan has a relatively high ground clearance, and the shape of the slipback is closer to the station wagon. But no matter how to define the Versailles C5 X, its appearance is the ceiling level. The exterior design of the Versailles C5 X as a whole adheres to the design elements of the Citroën X concept car, almost exactly the same restoration of the design of the concept car, which seems to be the only case on the French body.
The two chrome trim strips in the front part of the car cleverly form the X-shape and merge with the Citroën herringbone logo. The segmented daytime running lights are highly recognizable, and the headlights are designed in a matrix manner. The shape design of the bumper is very strong, and the design of the middle net below is very similar to the stage curtain that is pulled to the sides, and the details of these designs are grasped by the French.
The versailles C5 X's side lines are also very smooth, and the long nose and back-lined rear create a very sporty visual effect. The petal-shaped wheel design is very chic, there is an aerodynamic design inside the wheel hub, the design of the door panel is concave inward, and the black trim on the D-pillar is also decorated, and the design of the entire body side is still very good.
The versailles C5 X has a unique rear design, the design of the upper and lower tails is also patented by Citroën, and the upper tail is hollowed out, which can increase downward airflow and keep the rear windshield clean. The taillight design also forms a split X shape, which echoes the daytime running lights at the front of the car. The top of the roof is still the layout of the shark fin antenna, the bottom is a hidden exhaust design, and the design of the entire rear is full of details.
Versailles C5 X interior design also has a very big advantage, the size of the suspension central control screen is relatively large, the resolution is relatively high, the UI design is easy to understand and easy to operate, the new CitronConnect3.0 intelligent networked car machine system brings us a faster experience, with a 10-inch AR HUD head-up display, the entire Versailles C5 X interior of the sense of science and technology has been improved a lot.
The steering wheel of the Versailles C5 X is also a new design, the multi-function button layout is reasonable, and the chrome trim under the steering wheel is very chic, but if the word Citron can be laser-engraved on it, the sense of exclusivity will be stronger. The immersive electronic gear lever is very small, the air conditioner adopts independent control mode, the design of the knob has a strong sense of damping, and the feeling of operation is still very good. The seats of the Versailles C5 X and the stitching on the door panels are in line with citroën's logo, and the design details are really handy for the French.
In addition, it is most worth mentioning that the gearshift paddle design of the Versailles C5 X listened to the advice of consumers, and the paddle shifter designed from the paddle shifter fixed to the steering wheel seat on other Citroën models was designed to the paddle shifter that rotates with the steering wheel on the Versailles C5 X today. The ACC cruise control button is no longer hidden behind the steering wheel, but integrated in the multi-function steering wheel button part, convenient for the driver to operate, these advances and changes also reflect citroën's emphasis on the Chinese automotive market.
Versailles C5 X positioning medium-sized car, body size length, width and height are: 4805 * 1865 * 1505mm, wheelbase 2785mm. In terms of body size, Versailles C5 X belongs to the more typical medium-sized car body size, in terms of the actual feeling of space, Versailles C5 X still brings us some surprises, the leg space in the rear row is very spacious, and the space in the trunk is due to the design of the hatchback tailgate, so the performance in the longitudinal space is still better than other models of the same level.
In terms of power, the Versailles C5 X is powered by a 1.6THP turbocharged engine, which has a maximum horsepower of 175 Ps and is capable of exploding at 5500 rpm. The maximum torque is 250Nm and it can explode at 1750-4500rpm. The versailles C5 X's power parameters are not excellent, and even a little behind, but this powertrain is not a problem to meet the normal household.
In terms of configuration, Citroen found its feel in the Versailles C5 X. In the past, some people always said: "The French car roof is equipped with a beggar version"! But this time Citroën's new car has done a very good job in terms of configuration. The guide price of the entry-level version of versailles C5 X is: 143,700, with 8AT gearbox, 19-inch wheels, 5 airbags, reversing images, constant speed cruise, PHC suspension, panoramic sunroof, keyless entry/start, active closed intake grille, full LCD instrument, OTA upgrade, LED headlights, induction wipers, automatic air conditioning and other configurations, the configuration of the entire entry-level version of the model has been very enough, no longer the state of the top version of the version.
Editor's comments: Citroën Versailles C5 X is a very sincere model, first of all, the entry price of 143,700 is not seen on other B-class bodies, and the key is that the configuration of the entry-level version of the model is still relatively high, and the cost performance is extremely high. Coupled with the biggest highlight - the appearance, versailles C5 X is likely to become Citroën's turnaround.
Summary: The appearance and interior design of the Ford EVOS and Citroen Versailles C5 X are definitely the existence of the ceiling level, and the excellent appearance and interior design can easily bring more attention to the two cars. In addition, in terms of power, the advantages of ford EVOS are obvious, while the Citroën Versailles C5 X has a very good space performance in the same class, and the two cars are not very worth having.
