Detailed analysis of the Citroën DS5 e-HDi 115 Airdream Design ETG6 · 114 CV (2013-2014)
General description
The Citroën DS5 burst onto the market as a statement of intent, a bold fusion of a sedan, a wagon, and a coupe. It's not just a car; it's an experience that envelops you from the first moment, a haven of design and avant-garde that dared to be different in a world of uniformity.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the 114-horsepower e-HDi engine offers a smooth and efficient response, ideal for covering miles with extraordinarily low consumption. The ETG6 gearbox, while not aiming for sportiness, invites a calm and relaxed drive. Its chassis conveys a sense of poise and security, sacrificing some of Citroën's legendary comfort for more direct handling that connects you with the road in an unexpected and rewarding way.
Design and aesthetics
Design is its soul. Every line of the DS5 is a work of art, from the chrome 'saber' that flows from the headlight to the A-pillar, to its muscular rear. Inside, the magic continues with a cockpit inspired by aeronautics, an overhead console with switches, and a quality of materials that caresses the senses. Sitting in the DS5 is like stepping into a concept car made real.
Technology and features
Ahead of its time, the DS5 integrated features like the Stop & Start system to maximize efficiency in the city. The cabin, with its 'cockpit' configuration and its panoramic roof divided into three parts, creates a unique technological and luminous atmosphere. The electro-hydraulic steering and its comprehensive instrument panel make you feel in total control of a very special machine.
Competition
The DS5 played in a league of its own, challenging conventions. It measured up against the sobriety of premium sedans like the Audi A4 or the BMW 3 Series, but its true battlefield was for the hearts that also considered characterful alternatives like the Volvo V40 or the Alfa Romeo Giulietta. Its originality was its greatest weapon and its main differentiator.
Conclusion
The Citroën DS5 is not a rational choice; it's a purely emotional decision. It's a car for those who value beauty, audacity, and the feeling of driving something truly exclusive. Despite its minor compromises, its ability to make you feel special on every journey makes it an unforgettable vehicle and a future classic of automotive design.
