French fashion and romance are vividly displayed in the design concept of French cars. As an old car owner who has driven a legal system for nearly 10 years, it is definitely not just the fashion and romance on the legal system that makes the author a soft spot. The transparent cockpit and good driving vision. The laser welding process of the body makes the whole car more durable. The solid and stable chassis tuning that French engineers are proud of gives people a comfortable driving experience. The lower maintenance cost of the car in the later period makes me very satisfied. In fact, if you want to talk about the shortcomings of the car, the author thinks that the technology update may be relatively slow, which may also be a weakness of it.
, as a French car owner, is very pleased to witness the launch of Citroen Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS. It is definitely a powerful champion in French cars, and it may also carry the determination of French car companies to revive the market. In July of this year, Citroen further launched its first new energy model Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV. In a recent test drive event, the author experienced this car in depth.
Every November, the layers of colorful forests in western Sichuan will attract many tourists to visit and check in. This test drive event is from Chengdu to Gurgou in Aba Prefecture. The journey takes more than 200 kilometers and it takes about 3 hours to drive. The beautiful scenery along the way, coupled with the ultimate driving experience brought by Citroen Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV, makes this late autumn journey relaxed and romantic.
is full of affinity and excellent driving comfort
Citroen Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV's appearance and interior are almost the same as its fuel version. Now the popular trend of SUV is to highlight the lines, the sharp lines are more impactful, and there will be a hard-core off-road visual effect. The design of Citroen Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS goes the other way around. It is a very friendly product. It has round bulges wherever it looks. It has no clear waist or shoulder lines. It doesn't care about the sense of power, nor does it bother to "show off skills" with complex curved surfaces. However, this visual effect not only gives people a strong affinity, but also highlights the dynamic and stylish of the car. The difference between the plug-in hybrid model in this test drive and the fuel version is that a charging port is added to the left rear fender, and the word "PHEV" is also added to the rear of the car to show its unique identity. In addition, on the side of the body, the Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV model has an exclusive blue logo. At the same time, the new car also uses bright black aluminum alloy wheels, with the double-sided exhaust decoration on the rear of the car, showing a stronger Sense of movement. The interior design of
fits well with the exterior design. It also highlights the affinity while presenting a stylish side. The distinctive air-conditioning outlet on the center console, the rounded rectangle on the door and the handle design of the bag all have a strong feeling. Fashionable. In terms of comfort and convenience, most of the functions of the T-shaped center console design are concentrated on the main driving side, which facilitates the operation of the driver and improves driving safety; multi-function steering wheel, function left and right partition, Bluetooth, volume, LCD instrument control, etc. It can be operated here; the electrically adjustable seat is very convenient and practical, and the seat wrapping is also good, and the two-color design makes the seat look more fashionable and dynamic; the rear seat does not continue to the backup because of the underside The battery design of the box has a slight impact on the comfort of the ride (the battery occupies the original spare tire position in the trunk), the seat back tilt angle is in line with the best sitting posture of the human body, and it also has a central armrest, a rear exhaust outlet, and a USB interface Fully meet the comfort needs of the rear passengers; through the panoramic sky screen overhead, the blue sky and white clouds under the mountains, colorful forests and red leaves flying together, the scenery in front of you is beautiful; the large space brought by the large wheelbase of Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV, and its own outstanding The NHV made us feel tired during the 3-hour trip.
is empowered by technology, and the strength of the three-engine four-wheel drive is strong.
Citroen Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV should focus on its three-engine four-wheel drive power system. As the first plug-in hybrid model of Dongfeng Citroen, the car adopts the "P0+P2+P4" three-motor architecture with a 1.6T high-power engine. This is currently the only plug-in hybrid SUV with a three-motor architecture in its class. The P0 motor on the front axle is mainly used to enhance the hybrid The smoothness when the engine is involved in work in the mode. The P2 motor is integrated in the gearbox, replacing the position of the traditional gearbox hydraulic torque converter. The P4 motor on the rear axle is directly responsible for driving, thus forming a "three-engine four-wheel drive" Power system. The system has a maximum power of 221kW and a maximum torque of 520N·m. The officially announced acceleration time from 100 kilometers is 7 seconds, and the cruising range in pure electric mode is 58 kilometers. The transmission system matches the Aisin 8-speed automatic manual gearbox, and has 4 With the support of its intelligent four-wheel drive system, the torque between the front and rear axles can be intelligently distributed in real time according to the road conditions and the remaining power of the power battery, and the four-wheel drive performance of electric and fuel can be realized.
In actual driving, because I don’t really like the deceleration caused by the energy recovery when the pedal is released in the pure electric mode, I use the hybrid mode during the whole process. Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV is fully charged when it is fully charged. Priority will be given to the use of electric energy. At this time, the engine has very little time to intervene. In the D mode, the vehicle runs very quietly and has sufficient power reserve. The power response is quite fast in the sudden acceleration state. On the way to Gurgou, it is strong The feeling of pushing back is very exciting. Because the battery of the vehicle we test drive is not fully charged before departure, when driving close to 40 kilometers, the power will be reduced to the set low limit state (this time it is displayed in pure electric mode It can travel 10 kilometers under the state), the average fuel consumption per 100 kilometers displayed on the dashboard is 2.2 liters. Then the vehicle enters a driving mode that uses the engine as the main and electric power as the auxiliary. In this low-electric hybrid mode , We continued to drive 170 kilometers, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers was 7.4 liters at this time. But surprisingly, during the entire test drive session, some media reported a fuel consumption of less than 4 liters per 100 kilometers. In the mode, the author obtained the following conclusions by observing the energy flow video on the central control screen. Start lightly stepping on the accelerator, and then the motor will drive alone; when you continue to step on the accelerator, the front motor will intervene to assist in acceleration to achieve a pure electric four-wheel drive ; Deeply step on the accelerator, the engine will intervene in a transient state, and the three engines will drive together to achieve a hybrid four-wheel drive; when the driving state is stable, the main power source will be automatically switched (when the power is sufficient, the main power source is electrical energy, and the power enters the low The main power source is provided by the engine for a limited time). In addition, the Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV is equipped with a front McPherson and rear five-link independent suspension. Chassis tuning has always been the strength of French cars. The support is sufficient. The suspension also filters bumps. Very good. When cornering, the steering wheel is pointed accurately, and the vehicle roll control is also in place. Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV performs well throughout the trip.
summary: z2 3z
During the test drive in Western Sichuan, the Citroen Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV was able to make it both in terms of its very affinity appearance, interior, comfortable driving experience, or the technology-enabled three-engine four-wheel drive system. People are impressed. In the future, whether Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS PHEV can be included in more people's car purchase lists, I believe you will find the answer after you experience it.
