Detailed analysis of the Citroën C5 Feel BlueHDi 150 S&S · 150 CV (2016-2017)
General description
This generation's Citroën C5 represents the swan song of the great French sedans, a vehicle that prioritizes comfort and elegance above all else. With its efficient 150-horsepower BlueHDi engine, it presents itself as a tireless traveler, a haven of tranquility in a hurried world.
Driving experience
Driving the C5 is an experience that isolates you from the outside world. The feeling of floating over the asphalt is unparalleled, thanks to a suspension that filters out imperfections with superb mastery. The engine pushes smoothly but forcefully from low revs, thanks to its 370 Nm of torque, making every journey a serene and silent pleasure. It's not a sports car; it's a magic carpet for devouring kilometers without fatigue.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is pure timeless elegance. The fluid lines and classic sedan silhouette are enhanced by unique details like its concave rear window, a nod to the brand's history. At almost 4.8 meters long, its presence on the road is imposing and distinguished, a car that ages with admirable dignity.
Technology and features
Although its original launch was in 2011, this 2016 version incorporates technologies focused on efficiency, such as the Stop & Start system and a BlueHDi engine that complies with Euro 6 regulations. The heart of the car is its refined mechanics, with common-rail direct injection and a variable geometry turbo, always seeking the perfect balance between performance and an extraordinarily low consumption of 4.2 l/100km.
Competition
In its time, this C5 faced segment giants like the Ford Mondeo, the Volkswagen Passat, or its cousin, the Peugeot 508. It fought to win over drivers looking for an alternative with a unique character, focused on a ride comfort that its firmer German rivals could not match.
Conclusion
The Citroën C5 is more than a sedan; it's a statement of intent. It is the choice for those who value onboard well-being over sportiness. An exceptionally comfortable, spacious car with a reliable and economical engine. It represents an endangered philosophy, that of the great French 'routier', and for that very reason, it is a vehicle with a special and memorable soul.
