Detailed analysis of the DS 5 HDi 160 Design · 163 CV (2014-2015)

General description

The 2014 DS 5 is not just a car; it's a statement of intent. Born under the wing of Citroën but with the ambition to be something more, it represents the rebirth of French luxury and avant-garde. Driving it is to immerse yourself in a world where bold design and comfort go hand in hand, challenging the conventions of its time.

Driving experience

Behind the wheel, the 163 hp diesel engine pushes with a forceful and refined strength, allowing for a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 8.8 seconds that feels vigorous. The six-speed manual gearbox offers direct and pleasant control. Its suspension is firm, communicating the road without sacrificing comfort on long trips, creating a sense of poise and security that invites you to devour miles.

Design and aesthetics

Its design is a work of art in motion. It breaks the mold with a silhouette that fuses the elegance of a sedan with the audacity of a 'shooting brake'. The iconic chrome 'sabres' that run from the hood to the A-pillar are an unforgettable signature. Inside, the aeronautical inspiration envelops you in a spectacular cockpit, with an overhead console and high-quality materials that caress the senses and make you feel like you're in a truly special vehicle.

Technology and features

The technology in the DS 5 focuses on creating a unique experience. The panoramic roof, divided into three parts, each with its electric blind, floods an already fascinating cabin with light. The Head-Up Display projects key information onto the windshield, keeping your eyes on the road, while the layout of the controls, as if in an airplane cockpit, turns every interaction into a small ritual.

Competition

The DS 5 played in its own league, challenging German premium compacts and sedans like the Audi A3 Sportback or the BMW 3 Series with a different weapon: style and originality. It didn't seek to beat them on their own turf, but to offer a passionate alternative for those who dared to be different and valued exclusivity above all else.

Conclusion

Ultimately, the DS 5 is a purely emotional purchase. It's a car for those who appreciate beauty, audacity, and comfort with a touch of eccentricity. It's not the most practical or the most spacious, but its soul and its ability to make you feel special on every journey make it a modern classic that still turns heads and brings smiles.
