Recently, DPCA announced the sales report card for the first quarter of 2022; the cumulative sales volume from January to March reached 31,480 units, up 79% year-on-year, and achieved monthly sales increases for 16 consecutive months. Among them, the most noteworthy is the Dongfeng Citroen Versailles C5 X; this car sold 4,700 units in March, a 91% increase from the previous month, becoming the "hope of the whole village" of French cars!
From the perspective of design, the shape of versailles C5 X is indeed very good, and the overall design style of the "C Xperience" concept car is followed, which looks very beautiful and personalized. In the front part of the face, the through-type design is equipped with a split light group, and the visual effect is relatively rich, and the eye-catching index is very high.
At the same time, the interior style of the car is dominated by elegant tones, and many details also reflect the French pursuit of art. For example, the large area of soft-lined molding panels, laser-engraved wood grain panel abrasive pressing, Chevron seat stitching, Newso textured air conditioning knobs, and the combination of soft materials on the four sides highlight the differences with Japanese, German and American systems.
The Versailles C5 X features a station wagon design that combines the elegant dynamics of a sedan with the large space of a station wagon, and also has the passability of an SUV, with three experiences in one car being my first impression of the Versailles C5 X model. The front face is made of X-shaped daytime running lights, which has a good aesthetic, and it is also equipped with a 19-inch two-tone diamond cut wheel design, which is particularly trendy.
In the side part, the lines of versailles C5 X are very smooth, the cross-border travel style is very strong, giving people the first impression of a wagon similar to CC hunting suit and Wei Lan; in terms of size, the length, width and height of Versailles C5 X are 4805/1865/1505mm, the wheelbase is 2785mm, and the overall visual volume is still good. The wheel rim style is also very pleasing, the tires are made of Goodyear tires with a specification of 205/55 R19, and the rear shape is also very beautiful, and the design of the twin tail wings can add a certain sense of sportiness.
The interior design of the Versailles C5 X uses the romance characteristic of the French, and the entire central control design gives us an asymmetrical aesthetic. The driving computer screen adopts a 12-inch large-screen design, and the outer border has been carefully adjusted to create a good aesthetic. Of course, the configuration is also very high, with two mobile phone interconnection methods, four voice recognition control systems, and also has a car networking and remote upgrade system. In addition, the new car is also equipped with a full LCD color driving computer screen, a HUD digital head-up display function, as well as 360-degree wrap-around body glass, and a large panoramic sunroof, which creates a comfortable and technological mobile living space for us, which is a design that Honda Accord does not have.
