Detailed analysis of the Citroën C5 Feel Edition BlueHDi 150 S&S · 150 CV (2015-2016)
General description
This generation's Citroën C5 is the last bastion of a philosophy that prioritizes absolute comfort. This French sedan, in its Feel Edition version with the 150 horsepower BlueHDi engine, is not just a means of transport; it's a statement of intent, a rolling sanctuary that isolates you from the stress of the outside world with unique elegance and smoothness.
Driving experience
Driving the C5 is like floating on a magic carpet. The suspension, heir to the brand's legendary hydropneumatic system, absorbs every imperfection of the asphalt with an exciting mastery. It doesn't seek sportiness, but serenity. The 150 hp engine with 370 Nm of torque pushes with a calm and constant force, ideal for devouring miles on the highway without the slightest hint of fatigue. It's a first-class travel experience, where silence and comfort are the true protagonists.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is pure timeless elegance. The fluid silhouette, with a gentle roofline slope and the characteristic concave rear window, gives it an unmistakable personality and a stately presence. It's a car that commands respect with its presence without being ostentatious. Inside, the feeling of quality is palpable, with a wraparound dashboard and unique details like the fixed-hub steering wheel, which make you feel like you're in a special car, different from everything else.
Technology and features
Beyond its efficient BlueHDi engine with a Start&Stop system, the C5's true technological feat lies in its chassis. The suspension is a work of engineering dedicated to supreme comfort. Although the infotainment systems were not the most advanced on the market at the time, they served their purpose, but Citroën's focus was clear: to create the most comfortable driving experience possible, and in that, its technology was unsurpassed.
Competition
Against rivals like the Ford Mondeo, the Volkswagen Passat, or its cousin the Peugeot 508, the Citroën C5 played in its own league. While others opted for a more dynamic feel or minimalist and technological interiors, the C5 offered a level of comfort and insulation that none could match. It was the choice for those who valued quality of life on board above pure performance or the latest technological gadget.
Conclusion
The Citroën C5 BlueHDi 150 is more than a sedan; it's the swan song of an era, the last great Citroën focused on hydropneumatic comfort. It's a car with a soul, for drivers who understand that true luxury is not speed, but tranquility. Smoothness, elegance, and a unique character make it a deeply rewarding option and a future classic that reminds us of a way of understanding the automobile that has sadly been lost.
