Detailed analysis of the DS 5 BlueHDi 180 S&S EAT6 Sport · 181 CV (2017-2018)
General description
The DS 5 is not just a car, it's a statement of intent. In a world dominated by German sobriety, DS dared to launch a rolling work of art, a vehicle that fuses French haute couture with automotive engineering. This BlueHDi 180 in Sport trim represents the culmination of that audacity, offering an experience of luxury and distinction that is felt from the very first moment.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the DS 5 envelops you in an atmosphere of comfort and serenity. The 181-horsepower BlueHDi engine pushes with a powerful and silent force, thanks to its 400 Nm of torque available from very low revs. The EAT6 automatic gearbox manages the power with exquisite smoothness, turning every journey into a pleasant glide over the asphalt. It doesn't seek radical sportiness, but the poise of a great touring saloon, isolating you from the outside world in a cabin that feels like a luxury refuge.
Design and aesthetics
To observe the DS 5 is to stop before a sculpture. Its design is spectacular and timeless, with a silhouette that defies any classification. The iconic chrome 'sabre' that runs from the headlight to the A-pillar is an unmistakable signature. Inside, the magic continues with a cockpit inspired by aeronautics, with switches on the ceiling and a center console that embraces you. The quality of the materials and the attention to detail create an atmosphere that excites and makes you feel special.
Technology and features
The DS 5 integrates technology in a very personal way. The instrumentation is complemented by a Head-Up Display that projects key information into your line of sight, while the central touchscreen smoothly groups infotainment functions. The ceiling-mounted controls, which operate the blinds for the split panoramic roof, reinforce the feeling of being at the controls of an airplane. It's technology that is not only functional but also contributes to a unique and theatrical driving experience.
Competition
The DS 5 never intended to compete on the same ground as an Audi A4 or a BMW 3 Series. Its fight was different, a battle for the hearts of those drivers who value originality and design over pure performance. It positions itself as an exotic and sophisticated alternative to traditional premium saloons, attracting those who might also consider a Volvo V60 or a Volkswagen Arteon, but who are looking for a touch of avant-garde and exclusivity that only French design can offer.
Conclusion
Driving a DS 5 is an experience that goes beyond mobility. It is a passionate choice for those who are not content with the conventional. It is a car that rewards you with superb comfort, a design that continues to turn heads, and the feeling of owning something truly unique. Despite some compromises in roominess or visibility, its strong personality and grand tourer soul make it a modern classic, a treasure for the driver who appreciates beauty and audacity.
