Detailed analysis of the Citroën C5 Tourer Exclusive HDi 160 Aut. · 163 CV (2012-2015)
General description
This generation's Citroën C5 Tourer represents the culmination of a philosophy: comfort raised to its highest power. It's not just a family car; it's a statement of intent, a rolling sanctuary that combines French elegance with a powerful and reliable 163-horsepower diesel engine, ideal for devouring miles with exquisite smoothness.
Driving experience
Driving this C5 is an almost magical experience, a sensation of floating over the asphalt. The double wishbone suspension, heir to the mythical hydropneumatic system, isolates you from the outside world, transforming bumps and irregularities into mere caresses. The thrust of the HDi engine is forceful and quiet, delivering its power progressively and without harshness, perfectly complemented by an automatic transmission that prioritizes fluidity. It doesn't seek the adrenaline of a curve, but the peace and pleasure of an endless journey.
Design and aesthetics
Its silhouette is timeless and distinguished. The fluid lines and imposing presence are topped off with unique details like the concave rear window, a nod to Citroën's history. Inside, you are welcomed by a high-quality cabin, with well-chosen materials and a design that envelops the occupants. The driving position, with its characteristic steering wheel, makes you feel in command of something special and different.
Technology and features
The technological crown jewel is, without a doubt, its chassis. The double wishbone suspension on both axles is a sophisticated solution that guarantees superb ride comfort and remarkable stability. Beyond this feat, the C5 Exclusive came equipped with advancements of its time such as bi-xenon headlights, a complete infotainment system, and driving aids that turned every journey into a first-class experience.
Competition
In its time, it faced very serious rivals like the Volkswagen Passat Variant, the Ford Mondeo Sportbreak, or the Peugeot 508 SW. While its competitors opted for a firmer, more conventional driving feel, the C5 played in another league: that of absolute comfort. None of its rivals could match that magic carpet ride sensation that made it unique and desirable for those who value well-being above all else.
Conclusion
The Citroën C5 Tourer is much more than a family car; it's an ode to the pleasant journey. A choice for drivers who understand that true luxury is not speed, but tranquility. With its elegant design, cozy interior, and legendary ride comfort, this car has earned a place in the hearts of those who have enjoyed it. It is a modern classic that leaves an indelible mark.
