Pisces is the undisputed romantic creator, romantic, sensual, imaginative... The most suitable for these qualities in the car industry is the French car from the "romantic country", and the hottest Dongfeng Citroen Versailles C5 X has brought the romantic temperament to a new height.
In September last year, when the Versailles C5 X, which had undergone many rounds of publicity and warm-up, was officially launched, its popularity reached its peak, and people were amazed by the Frenchman's grasp of the product temperament while shouting the promise of Citroën revival. Recently, the reporter of China Economic Network has a deeper understanding of this star product after a short experience.
The French camp has never lacked products with individuality, but there are few products as drastically innovated as the Versailles C5 X, which shows a boldness that is not willing to be mediocre in terms of model design. From the front face, the split headlights that can be cleverly combined into an "X-shape" present its grasp of the popular elements of the moment, and highlight the design skills of Citroën; The slender, upturned daytime lights that blend in with the front grille are equally heroic. But despite the combination of many elements, the Versailles C5 X is still a true sedan attribute.
Turning to the side, the Versailles C5 X is a "sudden change in style". The upper part, the slender lines, the curvature of the roof that slowly slides from the B-pillar, and the hatchback design make it look like an elegant station wagon; However, the ground clearance of more than 190 mm and the black plastic wheel eyebrows make it comparable to the passability and tough guy temperament of SUV, and it is a cross-border product without compromise.
The Versailles C5 X is much more exciting than that, and the "complex" but "intense" rear of the car has become a part that has touched the hearts of journalists. The upturned rear of the car is doubly full, which also creates a posture of the vehicle ready to go; And the dual spoiler design is to make it "away" from the mediocrity of family cars; Not only that, but the "X-shaped" rear light that echoes the headlights also adds a lot of color to it.
Overall, it is difficult to define which category of versailles C5 X belongs to, but it is by no means a "four unlike", it will only make people addicted to its avant-garde and uninhibited, it is the design of the legal system that gives it the courage and strength to create a new category. Under the avant-garde and stunning leather bag, the Versailles C5 X has a French "lazy" heart, which is manifested in both interior design and power adjustment.
Opening the doors, the Versailles C5 X translates its imaginative imagination into a French minimalist style, with a smooth layout, clean lines, and an affinity interior style that still makes it very pleasing.
The 7-inch LCD meter is minimalist in design, but when used in conjunction with the head-up display, it is still sufficient; The 12-inch central control screen also belongs to the practical representative, concise UI and smooth control, so that it has zero difficulty in getting started; At the same time, the rich and spacious storage space and the unobstructed central control area also show the rationality in the sensibility of the Versailles C5 X; In addition, the heating, ventilation and massage functions of the front seats are complete, which greatly increases its sincerity.
After the test drive, the versailles C5 X's power and handling performance confirmed its legal identity. Powerly, the vehicle is equipped with a 1.6T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 175 horsepower and a maximum torque of 250 Nm; The 8AT gearbox with it is a "value-added" configuration; At the same time, the vehicle can also switch between economical, standard and sporty driving modes according to the driving environment and needs. In the actual experience, in the economic and standard mode, the vehicle power performance is absolutely comfortable and smoothly oriented, stepping on the accelerator pedal, the power output is not slow, and the steering force is relaxed and soft; After switching to sport mode, the power output is slightly more positive, but the overall performance is still not related to "impulse". But this is also the style of the French car for a long time, and under the blessing of textbook chassis tuning, the Versailles C5 X can feedback back a very tough comfort feeling when passing through each ditch, so that the driver and occupants can experience the road sense without losing comfort, which shows the depth of the tuning skills.
