Photo Citroen DS5

The Citroen DS5 model debuted at the motor show in Shanghai in 2011. Excellent external data combined with innovative technologies will satisfy even the most demanding customers. But Citroen DS5 is first and foremost an extraordinary car, so it will appeal to those who are not afraid to experiment. The car is based on the PSA PF2 platform, which it also shares with its fellow DS4, C4 and C4 Picasso. Hatchback length - 4530 mm, width is 1871 mm.

The height reaches 1513 mm. Wheelbase - 2727 mm. The car received a striking extravagant appearance. Creating it, designers sought to highlight this hatchback among others and put it apart, so the DS5 model is not at all like its predecessors: the Citroen DS3 and DS4. The predatory appearance is formed by lanterns with LEDs spreading over the wings, a parabolic hood shape, a huge grille with a well-styled brand badge, and also a fascinating form of air intakes on the bumper.

The DS5 has a roofline that falls to the back and, conversely, a rising sill line. This makes the silhouette of the car more rapid, kin it with both the coupe and the sport station wagon. Behind everything is no less attractive. The shape of the rear lights is very similar to the boomerang, and on the low and wide tailgate with two-piece glass, the brand heraldry of the model is noticeable. An interesting detail - the DS5 stern is crowned with two tailpipes of the exhaust system. But this was done for the sake of harmony, since, in fact, the exhaust pipe is only one of the chrome-plated multi-faceted tips. Design Citroen DS5 is not only beautiful, but also effective.

With the help of deflectors, a strong tilt of the windshield and the shape of the front bumper have achieved an excellent indicator of aerodynamic drag. The drag coefficient is 0.29. The interior will not leave anyone indifferent. 90% percent of the identity of the interior lies in the design of the dashboard. The center console is built on the principle of asymmetry. This asymmetry manifests itself in different forms of deflectors of the heating system, in the disordered arrangement of control buttons and their accumulation. The dashboard is non-trivial. The speedometer is located in the middle, on both sides there are a tachometer and a small display of the onboard computer.
