Recently, Citroën Versailles C5X this car controversy, 4000 rpm acceleration shake, handling is not as strong as the publicity and other topic controversy, some netizens said that Citroën official but never said that they positioned control, poor handling is also reasonable, but some of the black belt rhythm. In just a few months, has the wind changed? Does the Versailles C5X really not flaunt manipulativeness?
Some netizens turned over the elk test video released by the car when it was promoted, which is the video released by the official account of Citroën. In the video, Versailles directly challenges the elk test speed of 120 per hour, and the car sits with citroën's chassis tuning engineer, which can be considered an official event. After this video came out, french fans all climaxed, saying that Citroën was a master chassis and Versailles had excellent control.
But is this really the case? First of all, the elk test standard adopted by Versailles is not the main test standard in the world.
In the elk test at Versailles, the elk test was carried out according to the ADC German Automobile Club ADC emergency avoidance standard and the ISO international standard iso 3888-1 and ISO3888-2 standards. The standard for passing the elk test at speed 120 per hour is iso3888-1 standard, and the line change interval used for the test is 30 meters and 25 meters, and the current international more common is based on the ISO3888-2 standard to set the test area, and the line change interval is reduced to 13.5 meters and 12.5 meters.
The distance between the two line changes has more than doubled, and it is not surprising that the Elk test score of 120 per hour has been achieved, and no one really thinks that the maneuverability of the Citroën Versailles C5X surpasses the 911 and other models, right?
Second, do elk test scores really represent manipulation? How long will you have to be brainwashed?
In fact, the results of the elk test are affected by many factors, the venue, the test standard, the temperature, the humidity can affect the results of the elk test, even if all the above standards can be unified, the ESP calibration is also crucial to the results of the elk test, because the elk test records the score of the corner, if you slow down sharply before the second corner, the success rate of the elk test is higher. In other words, a car with a good test score is either a car with a really high chassis handling limit or an ESP calibration that is very chicken. To take the simplest example, the Alfa Romeo Giulia Four Leaflet Edition and the Skoda Octavia Travel Edition have the same results, can you say that the two cars have the same handling?
As for why car companies like to do elk testing so much, in fact, it is for marketing, to create the impression of good control of this car to the public, especially the French car, which itself has the reputation of a chassis master in the folk, and the elk test results have naturally become an important means of legal car marketing. However, the Versailles C5 X Elk test score of 80 km / h, the track measured the best lap time of 01:29.25s, worse than the Asian Dragon, Artez, Camry, Mazda Axela, hybrid Veranda, how do you say the handling of this car?
It's like a down jacket brand that only advertises the weight of the down jacket itself, but deliberately conceals the amount of filling and fluffiness, and then tells you that this down jacket is very warm, this is not a deception?
Some of the advantages of the French car have been talked about, the most important point is the chassis, the chassis of the French car has been blown into flowers, it seems that the French car has nothing to blow in addition to the chassis, but the chassis of Versailles, the handling is not done well, the comfort is also general, both ends are not taken into account, then what is there to blow? Maybe it's only in the self-intoxication of the legal system year after year, talking about masturbation, right?
