Citroen C5 Aircross with the new "hitopadesha" will arrive in Russia

The Aircross name becomes the last name, so in the near future we are waiting for a family of the same name saratovska crossovers of different sizes. And if until now you only heard about the C4 Aircross, which launched in 2012, get ready because this fall he will have at least two brothers.

Junior is C3 Aircross — Citroen have already used in Latin America for pseudocneorhinus version of the C3 Picasso compact MPV, but since September’s going to call a whole new montressor, whose image is in Geneva demonstrated the concept car C-Aircross. Well, big brother will be C5 Aircross, which has just debuted in Shanghai. It’s a fully stock car, whose sales will start in autumn in China (this is export market number one for Citroen), and after a year and a half in Europe and Sicretland.

“Storey” expression and artistic profile made Citroen C5 Aircross one of the most striking cars in its genre, and to confront him would be the Nissan X-Trail, Honda CR-V and Renault Koleos. In a plastic “belt” around the perimeter of the protective body integrated protectors with an air-filled Airbump cameras, the tailgate is equipped with a servo function of the opening “kick” underneath the bumper.

In the cabin of the Citroen seems to be uses the familiar solutions from the Arsenal of the PSA group, but if Peugeot creates a quaint building on the front panel, Citroen clearly keeps in mind the conservative tastes of the Chinese audience. In the end, the bold interior of the eponymous concept two years ago has greatly calmed down and is no longer surprising solid “wall” of tablets and rotating the selector to the transmission. Timber front panel and an emphasis on rectangular shapes make the cabin look wider and more “grown-up”. Plastic soft, wide chairs, graphics, interfaces calm on the relationship with the avant-garde crossover Peugeot 3008 and 5008 are the only joystick transmission and touch-sensitive buttons on the center console.

This is the first crossover that Citroen did their own original chassis. After all, the C4 Aircross is a turned version of the Mitsubishi ASX. And the model is C5 Aircross lies EMP2 modular platform, and for the first time for cars of Citroen will be applied to the hybrid four-wheel drive. It could be argued that such a platform already used by Peugeot 3008, Peugeot 5008 and DS 7 Crossback, however Citroen is significantly different from each of these cars.

First, the size. C5 Aircross bigger than the Peugeot 3008, its wheelbase (2730 mm) 55 mm longer and about the same longer body (4.5 m). However, the seven-seater Peugeot 5008 even more (wheelbase 2840 mm), however, in his cabin are three rows of seats, and Citroen remained a five-seater and promises the most spacious rear sofa in the class along with a rack 482 liters. The rear backrest of the sofa regulated by the slope of the separate sections of the backrests can be folded remotely using the keys in the trunk.

And secondly, Aircross C5 was the first car equipped with Hydraulic Cushions Progressive suspension. A rather clumsy title should hint that this chassis is the successor to the famous hydropneumatic suspension Hydractive, which the French refuse for economic reasons.

In fact, a replacement for my Citroen hydropneumatics have already developed the Active Scan Suspension system, which debuted on the DS crossover 7 Crossback. It uses the front camera to detect irregularities and to change damping force in real time. But Progressive Hydraulic Cushions arranged differently, it is based seems to be more than simple passive dampers, but they are equipped with additional hydraulic travel stops instead of the usual rubber dampers. In fact it turned out three of the shock absorber in one. The main works with small movements of the suspension and therefore may have a low resistance, to ensure maximum softness. And from hard impacts at the end of a release and compression it just insure additional hydraulic buffers: due to their C5 Aircross promises increased energy on a bad road.

Saratovtsy claim that such a system would not compromise the handling, however, during the Shanghai presentation on driving driving values and the character of the French spoke little. The main thing in this car is the comfort, so C5 Aircross is equipped with improved sound insulation, laminated glass, front seats with eight embedded pneumatic cells and massage function, and a system for monitoring air quality in the cabin, which automatically turns on the recirculation.

However this didn’t prevent the Citroen Aircross C5 to announce the most powerful vehicle in the brand’s history. This, of course, about the hybrid version, which turboservice petrol 1.6 THP (200 HP) help the motor-generator and a separate motor on the rear axle, and total power up to 300 HP

In the basic version of the crossover — petrol engine 1.6 THP turbo 165 HP, six-speed “automatic” and front wheel drive. Mechanical all wheel drive transmission, as well as the Peugeot with a similar technique, is not provided, but there are assistant descent from the mountain and the system Grip Control, which moderates the work of the ESP (five modes: Pavement, Sand, Roads, Snow and ESP Off). Among the other driving electronics — active tracking markup (with torque steer), the system of sign recognition and adaptive cruise control with automatic emergency braking.

To release C5 Aircross will begin this year on the Chinese plant in Chengdu, in October it will be on sale at the local market, and the arrival in Europe need to wait until the second half of next year, when the production will start at the factory in the French Rennes. Release Sicretland in question, but the crossover will appear either simultaneously with Europe, or later.
