If there is a Beijing native who complains about life with you, don't think that he is talking to you about bitter water, seriously, you will lose.

In Beijing, there is such a group of people, they will complain to you with a sad face: I live in the bungalow where my fathers and grandfathers lived forty or fifty years ago, the whole family is crowded in a one-bedroom apartment of forty or fifty square meters, the road in front of the door is narrow enough to only pass one car, the parking space in front of the door is grabbed, and when you go back late, you can only park the car in the parking lot two kilometers away, and then walk home, on the weekend, you can't go out of the house for 100 meters is one of the most chaotic commercial streets in Beijing, and you have to guard against strangers suddenly pushing open the door of the house.
Have you already begun to sympathize with them a little, but what would you think if I told you that this was an authentic old Beijing native who lived in Beijing's Nanluoguxiang and lived in a courtyard? Although every sentence seems to be complaining, behind every sentence, how can it not be a kind of Versailles? And how do you define them?
Today, I am going to drive the equally undefined Dongfeng Citroen Versailles C5 X to feel the undefined "Versailles" of the old Beijingers.
Between the red walls and gray tiles, feel the multi-faceted life of Beijingers
Driving the car into the hutong, it suddenly seems to become half a Beijinger, through the 360-degree wrap-around body glass of the Versailles C5 X, I see the uncle who passes through two caged birds from time to time, the big brother who just bought the fritter tofu brain and the big sister who is anxious to send the child to kindergarten, in the chaos and has its own order, enjoying the independent mode in the integration, is the most pure Beijinger's life.
Compared with the high-rise buildings outside the fourth ring road, the small hutongs with twists and turns, the warm and idyllic courtyards, with a long history, ancient traditional characteristics and rich cultural atmosphere, link the checkerboard pattern of Yuan Dadu with the modern circular plus radiation layout, showing the most authentic side of Beijingers.
In this horizontal and vertical alley, the modern and trendy "X" LED daytime running lights on the Versailles C5 X break the parallel beauty, which is unforgettable, but after being connected by chrome decoration, it converges on the Citroën LOGO in the center of the front of the car, and the two herringbone gear plates that are parallel to each other give a parallel interpretation of the intersecting beauty.
Shuttling through the hutongs of Beijing, the 19-inch two-color diamond-cut active intake aluminum wheels echo with the stone lion door piers at the door, rotating rapidly like a lion dancing hydrangea, and the active intake wheel design can also rotate the airflow into it so that the brake discs will not overheat.
The rear of the car with suspended double tails is neatly arranged like the gray tiles of the roof, the tiles are used to block the wind, the tail wing is also the wind, the wind blows the tiles to ensure safety, and the wind blowing through the double tail wing is to optimize the aerodynamics of the Versailles C5 X, reducing the wind resistance at the same time, but also increasing the downforce, the same is also safe.
After parking the car, I got out of the car and talked with the uncle who was sitting in the sun at the mouth of the alley, talking about his life after retirement, and the uncle just said lightly: basking in the sun every day, doing what I want to do, playing something that I didn't have time to play when I was young, I was satisfied.
And how many people dream of such a life like the mouth of the great uncle? Although there is more helplessness in the mouth, how can this not be a kind of Versailles? Back on the car, open the oversized outer floating luxury panoramic skylight, enjoy the same winter warm sun as the uncle, listen to the pigeon whistle in the ear, close your eyes, maybe send ephemera in the heavens and the earth, the feeling of a millet in the sea, but it is just so, in this moment, I seem to understand the open-mindedness of Beijingers.
The Beijingers in the hutongs are all generalists of life, they are sometimes carpenters, they can pull out axes and saws from home, they are sometimes masons, they can build a pool in the corner of the yard, and they are sometimes historians, who can tell you about the big things and small things in Beijing.
It's like the Versailles C5 X, you say it's a sedan, but it has 193mm ground clearance that surpasses many city SUVs, you say it's an SUV? It has the comfort and practical space of a station wagon, you say it is a station wagon? It has a sedan-like back shape, for such a generalist in life, who can not love it?
Experience the boundaries between comfort and chaos in the midst of traffic
Driving out of the hutong, you can feel the modern sense of Beijing as the capital, and often hear Beijingers complain: Beijing's traffic is too congested; Beijing's ring road is easy to walk, but there are too many seams between the elevated roads; Beijing commutes have to drive for more than an hour, and every day there is more time in the car than at home.
Now driving versailles C5 X through the Lama Temple Street, but also really feel the pressure from the capital, just attracted by the archway of the Guozijian, it was a car that came out of nowhere to take advantage of the hole, fortunately, the automatic emergency braking system of the Versailles C5 X helped me step on the brakes to avoid this accident.
Continuing to the north, you can smell the exuberant incense of the Lama Temple through the car window, as an international metropolis, there are also a group of good men and women fans, which is also a collision of tradition and modernity. Maybe this exuberant smell of incense in the nose of the believer is pious, but at the moment I feel that it is exuberant and somewhat choking.
Close the window, open the Versailles C5 X air conditioning internal circulation, this Clean Cabin intelligent cleaning cockpit system, can filter more than 99% of PM2.5 particles, within ten minutes, the air in the car is back to normal, and this intelligent cockpit system, but also real-time monitoring of air quality inside and outside the car, when the air pollution in the car, it will actively open the external circulation; on the contrary, it will close the external circulation to ensure the best breathing quality in the car.
After closing the window, not only the taste is isolated, but also the sound, the horn, the shout, the shouting and the 107 road station sound, the car has 10 - 15mm of environmentally friendly sound insulation materials, coupled with the protection of double-layer laminated acoustic glass, so that the noise outside the car is isolated from the glass, while the silent chain and the application of sound insulation and shock stopping materials in more than 120 places on the body, so that the noise inside the car itself is further suppressed.
Admittedly, when the 107 road drove through Gulou East Avenue again, although time was a tram that took away youth, but now I was sitting in the Car of the Versailles C5 X, stepping on the accelerator pedal, this upgraded 1.6T engine could make the turbine intervene at 1000 rpm, in a vain attempt to seize the tail of time through the maximum power of 129kW.
When you open the car door, you feel the enthusiasm and boldness from Beijing, and closing the car door, at this moment, it belongs to your own exclusive Moment. Feeling the tranquility and steadfastness of the Versailles C5 X in my own small world has allowed me to find a little peace in the fast-paced city of Beijing, but tranquility is by no means the label that defines the city of Beijing.
Within the square inch screen, enjoy the convenience brought by technology
Driving through the vicissitudes of the Bell and Drum Tower and entering the main road of the Fourth Ring Road, I truly feel the grandeur and grandeur of this super-first-class city from Beijing. Turning on the L2.5 C-Pilot driver assistance system of the Versailles C5 X, monitored by a multi-function camera + 3 millimeter-wave radars, I was able to relax for a moment in a city that required a high degree of concentrated driving.
While I was wandering around the exquisite crisscrossing of the roof of the Bird's Nest, the Versailles C5 X was correcting my driving trajectory little by little through the lane positioning assist function, and at this moment I realized the short distraction I had just experienced, and the consequences of a little inattention would be.
Versailles C5 X's lane positioning assist function, even in the face of a large curvature curve such as the fourth ring road, can maintain the active center, which is still very surprising to me, when driving away from the congested road section, I chose to take over the vehicle's driving, through this large area of 3D color eHUD head-up display system, the speed, map, navigation, road signs and a series of information at the bottom.
This 12-inch screen with a difference rate of up to 1920 * 720, even in the summer direct sunlight, can see every string of information on the screen, but for the sake of safety when driving, or exhale "Hello, Citroën", after all, you can move your mouth, why do it? Up to 34 instructions for the control of the car machine, is also enough.
Not to mention that Versailles C5 X and Connect 3.0 intelligent network system, open up the boundaries between mobile phones and car machines, but also through the OTA unlimited upgrade iteration, for a city as rapidly changing as Beijing, keep up with the pace of the times to be able not to be photographed on the beach.
summary:
Driving the Versailles C5 X on the streets of Beijing, I seem to understand a little bit why Beijingers always have a feeling of not being labeled, because there has never been one or several labels that can fully describe Beijingers, as a city at the foot of Tianzi, they have become accustomed to the rise and fall of history, watch him rise from the Zhu Lou, see him feast on guests, watch his building collapse, the people of this city have become accustomed to finding a balance between busyness and laziness, looking for gaps between inner volume and lying flat, so that they can be dynamic and static. Retract and retract freely.
And why isn't the Citroën Versailles C5 X? The design of a hundred families allows it to cover every need of your life, when it is necessary to relax, it can give the quiet experience of the space capsule class, as comfortable as being in the Beijing hutong; when you need passion, it can also stimulate surging power, as warm as being in the intersection of the street; when it needs it to understand you, you can move your mouth, he can know your intentions, take you to any place you want to go.
So calm that it cannot be defined, it is the real Versailles
Just like a brand like Citroën, it was able to gallop on the WRC field in the early 21st century, winning the Driver of the Year Championship for 9 consecutive years, and it was also able to produce a national-class god car like Fukang in the early stages of the mainland automobile industry, but for a while it almost faded out of our sight.
Now versailles C5 X turned out, but it proved that its king returned, only a quarter of time successfully delivered 12114 vehicles, November, December for two consecutive months delivered more than 5,000 units, and plans to deliver another 5,000 vehicles in January, becoming the most successful model launched by DPCA in the past seven years.
With the arrival of the Year of the Tiger, Versailles C5 X also launched 1,000 models for the opening of the Year of the Tiger, with a three-piece set of Red Luck Tiger Logo, Red Luck Headrest and Red Luck Wheel Decoration Pieces. The Red Luck Tiger logo is dotted on the rear triangle window, and the golden and red color scheme is cleverly integrated into the light and flexible shuttle streamlined body, paying tribute to the national style, but also highlighting the unique aesthetic of the owner of the Versailles C5 X.
The Versailles C5 X Year of the Tiger opens the door with a red wheel trim that makes the rotation of the wheels no longer monotonous under the power output of the 360THP turbo engine with a maximum power of 129kW.
To say that the most practical tiger age limit configuration, but also to say that this piece of red transport headrest, using soft, breathable suede material, with a CAC comfortable seat designed to fit the curve of the human spine, so that driving from now on become a kind of enjoyment.
The natives of Beijing often say that Beijing is the Beijing of their childhood only during the New Year; the natives of Beijing also say: When it snows in Beijing, it becomes Peking. So why not take advantage of the fact that this purest Peiping has not yet been restored to the capital; under the peaceful atmosphere of Peiping, drive a Versailles C5 X with a red transport three-piece suit to beijing?
