Citroen DS4 consumer report

Citroen DS4 consumer report - test drive and review Citroen DS4

   

 It has been quite some time since Citroen launched their luxury new DS-series and for some this was a step forward even though the brand was using some tricks from the 1960's.
Citroen DS4 is based on the mid-sized hatchback C4 with some stylish and functional upgrades to make it stand out form the crowd.
The car is elegant and sporty but looks a bit too big and massive and doesn't have the distinctive sporty looks it should probably have.

Citroen DS4 interior is very stylish 

The interior of the car is very roomy and offers plenty of space for both front and rear seats. The space for luggage is big enough and you will not lack space for your big suitcases.
Interior space is very functional too, most instruments have a nice touch and are easy to reach. The DS4 is equipped with all possible gadget you may possibly need including many electronic assists, satellite navigation and plenty of others.
Citroen DS4 comes with a choice two diesel and three petrol engines in the DS4 (from 112 PS up to 200 PS)

Citroen DS4 test drive and review

Today at For consumers blog we are going to take a closer look at one of the most avantgarde models on the car market today. The DS stands for Citroen's most luxury and prestige models and the car itself is based on the new C4 platform.

        

The petrol engines that power the DS4 are a product of the partnership between PSA and BMW. They are 1,598 cc four-cylinder, 16-valve units. The base VTi  is normally aspirated and puts out 120 PS (88 kW). As its name shows it comes with variable valve timing. The next engine up is the THP 155, essentially a turbo-charged version of the VTi. It puts out 156 PS (115 kW) thanks to a twin-scroll turbocharger and dual overhead cams. It is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. The most powerful gas engine available in the DS4 is the THP 200. It's a variation of the THP 155 previously mentioned but pushed to 200 PS (147 kW).
Citroen offers two diesel engines in the DS4 - the HDi 110, a 1,560 cc four-cylinder that puts out 112 PS (82 kW). The second is the four-cylinder HDi 160 also found in the Citroën C5 sedan. It has a displacement of 1,997 cc and puts out 163 PS (120 kW).
