Detailed analysis of the DS 5 BlueHDi 120 S&S Style · 120 CV (2015-2018)
General description
The DS 5 is not just a car; it's a statement of intent. Born under the wing of Citroën and emancipated as the flagship of the new DS brand, this vehicle breaks the mold with a boldness that defies convention. It is the embodiment of French luxury and avant-garde, a rolling sculpture designed for those who seek to stand out and feel something different on every journey.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the DS 5 envelops you in an atmosphere of serenity and comfort. Its 120-horsepower BlueHDi engine, though modest in numbers, delivers its 300 Nm of torque smoothly and from very low revs, making driving a relaxed and pleasant experience. It doesn't seek acceleration records but rather to devour kilometers with exceptional composure and acoustic insulation. It is a true grand tourer, designed to enjoy the journey, feeling the asphalt glide under its wheels with imperturbable elegance.
Design and aesthetics
Design is its soul and its greatest argument. Every line of the DS 5 seems sculpted by the wind, from its imposing 'DS Wings' grille to the iconic chrome saber that flows from the headlights. Its silhouette, halfway between a sedan and a coupe, radiates a magnetic presence. Inside, the magic continues with a cockpit inspired by aeronautics, a roof console with switches, and a quality of materials that caresses the senses. It is a cabin that embraces you, creating an intimate and special connection with the machine.
Technology and features
The onboard technology in the DS 5 aims to complement the luxury experience without being overwhelming. The central touchscreen centralizes the main functions, clearing the console of buttons and creating a more open atmosphere. Details like the analog clock or the configurable instrumentation add a touch of distinction. Under the hood, the BlueHDi engine with Stop&Start system represents modern efficiency, achieving very low consumption without sacrificing ride smoothness, all while complying with the strict Euro 6 standard.
Competition
Finding a direct rival for the DS 5 is a complex task because it plays in its own league. It could be measured against premium sedans like the Audi A4 or the BMW 3 Series, but the DS 5 does not compete on sportiness, but on originality and comfort. Its true competition are other vehicles with a strong design component, such as the Volkswagen Arteon or the Volvo V40. However, its greatest rival is monotony; it is the alternative for those who refuse to drive a car like everyone else's.
Conclusion
The DS 5 BlueHDi 120 is a purely emotional purchase. It is a car for the heart, for those who value beauty, craftsmanship, and the feeling of traveling in a work of art. It is not the fastest or the most spacious, but it compensates with an overwhelming personality and superb comfort on long journeys. Driving a DS 5 is an experience that transcends mere mobility; it is a daily privilege, a constant reminder that automotive can also be art.
