In Geneva, Citroen announced the concept of Kar, and already in Frankfurt the French intend to show the serial version of the new compact car. The show in Geneva stirred not only the press. The revival of the most beautiful auto planet, which Citroen Deesse was considered at one time. Yes, even in several versions at once. You can’t pass by this.
It is very noticeable that the serial hatchback model is the concept of Citroen DS Inside Concept. When creating a car, many chic ideas arise, but in their way there is a very cruel and hard filter — technology and marketers. It seems that the last win here. It is possible that the French proposal is the most fashionable and vivid offer of recent years. And they need to enter the premium class. But not just enter, but to be leaders. You can’t do without cunning, because the main competitor for the new Citroen is mini. And this car has a demanding public and just on an expensive hatchback to not drive up to them. Perhaps therefore, when creating this machine, marketers prevailed. Creating a site where everyone can not only “practice” in creating a color appearance, but make up for themselves, and only for themselves, the future combination of body colors, roof, interior of the salon. Imagine what feelings should experience fashionistas, fashionistas and metrosexuals. The horse, on which the French decided to drive up to the public — personalization. Using “My DS3” as a slogan, the car manufacturer offers not only a dozen colors of the body, but also four roof colors. The number of combination options increases to several thousand. Roofing felts are not expanse, for fashionistas. Huge expanses for fantasy. After all, besides this, in different colors you can paint and discs. Yes, and the interior too. And here the number of design options is an endless set. After all, the main emphasis is on the design. The creators are proud of each element of the salon. Where the instrument panel is quite whimsical. Of course, there is a navigation system with a large -format display. Acoustic system with a thoughtful amount and location of the speakers. The choice of options for upholstery is the widest. And everywhere the monogram «DS». In a word — a continuous window dressing, and no practice. Let us a little distract from discussing the external and internal interior of the new contender for the role of a leader in the premium grade. And try to look under the hood of a revived legend. There, of course, diesel is in the first place. The equipment involves two HDI diesel options their power, respectively, ninety and one hundred and ten horses. But not forgotten gasoline engines. There are three of them. These are the same engines with a volume of 1, 6 liters, as on mini. Power 90, 120 150 liters. With. The last two will be equipped only with a mechanical box of 5 and 6 steps. In the DS3 space, not a poppy will take up a lot of space. With a length of 3, 95 meters and width 1, 71 meters, this machine will become the most compact representative of class «c». But in this case, indicators of capacity and practicality come to the fore. Creating a prestigious city car, the French gave the first violin to style and image. It remains only to see how well, this violin will play its party.
