Citroen has released new Citroen DS4

Citroen has released first details for the new Citroen DS4, a unique and attractive blend of creativity, dynamism, exclusivity and versatility. Citroen DS4 is the second model in Citroen's distinctively-styled DS line.

Citroen DS4 brings an alluring mixture of premium design codes and a bold approach to automotive styling, with an emphasis on driving pleasure and advanced vehicle architecture. Citroen DS4 is a model with a multitude of talents, effortlessly responding to a broad range of owner needs, while enhancing the appeal and vitality of the motoring experience.

Finely crafted to convey a prestigious presence both inside and out, Citroen DS4 offers meticulous detailing from carefully applied chrome touches to premium cabin materials - such as the finest quality leather seats. A large panoramic windscreen, offering enhanced occupant visibility, illuminates the driver-focused cockpit, creating a bright and welcoming environment.

Combining coupe style with 2+2 door practicality, Citroen DS4 offers three full-sized rear seats, accessed by rear doors with hidden handles that are seamlessly integrated into the body's flowing lines. Citroen DS4 also benefits from a capacious 370-litre boot and a host of clever storage solutions.

Citroen DS4 comes with a choice of five refined and efficient engines - two HDi diesels and three petrol powerplants.

An example of truly creative design, Citroen DS4 boldly blends a mix of the most desirable styling references to create an exciting new automotive proposition. Marc Pinson, Citroen DS4's chief stylist, comments, "Reinterpreting cues opened up new possibilities, bringing practical and surprising solutions to automotive mobility".

Citroen DS4's cabin is dominated by the large panoramic windscreen that extends backwards into the roofline. Offering up to 45° of upward vision, the panoramic glazed area combines with Citroen DS4's slightly raised stance, to provide optimised visibility for the driver, with a bright yet intimate, airy cabin environment for passengers.

With its high-set, taut and agile stance, Citroen DS4 is tuned for dynamic performance, appealing to drivers looking for an involving motoring experience."We really wanted drivers to feel like they have the road at the tips of their fingers", says Jeremie Maestracci, Citroen DS4's project manager.

Depending on trim level, Citroen DS4 is fitted with large-diameter (340mm) ventilated disc brakes and, as standard, with dedicated braking control systems, including ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) and Emergency Brake Assist (EBA). Ensuring optimal vehicle control in the most demanding driving situations, Citroen DS4 also features intelligent traction control with ESP.

Citroen DS4 will be launched with a choice of five refined and highly efficient Euro 5 engines. The two HDi diesels - an HDi 110 (also available as an e-HDi version) and an HDi 160 - are both fitted with Citroen's Diesel Particulate Filter System. The three petrol powerplants - VTi 120, THP 155 and the new THP 200 - were co-developed with BMW. The new THP 200 - based on the 1.6-litre engine - delivers flexible power delivery and performance thanks to its power output (147kW), plentiful torque (275Nm at 1,700rpm) - with low CO2 emissions of just 149g/km. All engines are available with manual or EGS six-speed gearboxes.

Citroen DS4 will be revealed at the 2010 Paris Motor Show and is expected to go on sale later in 2011.

This model comes to market with engine power between 120 and 200 horsepower on gasoline, while the range of powers in diesel goes from 112 to 163 hp. The three petrol engines have been developed by Citroën and BMW.

Reviewing the mechanical gasoline we find that the engine of access is the VTi of Palio and pair between the 2,500 and 5,750 rpm 160Nm. Mixed consumption is 6.2 l / 100 Km and emissions are 144 g of CO2 per km.

If we wanted more power without leaving the fuel options could opt for the 155hp THP and torque 240Nm turbocharged and direct fuel injection. It comes mated to a manual transmission 6-speed piloted and their consumption are 6.5 l/100 km with CO2 emissions of 149 g / km.

If still more our is the Citroën DS4 THP 200hp and 275Nm of torque. Consumption are ridiculous if we take into account their characteristics, also consumes less than the 155 THP, 6.5 litres and 149 grams of CO2 per km are their emissions.

If on the contrary we dieselizados, we can access to the range with the HDi 110 of 112CV and 270Nm pair (with feature overboost 285Nm which increases it to accelerate strongly). This engine by microhíbrida technology e-HDi (Star-Stop) and the manual gearbox piloted standardises 4.4 litres and emits 122 grams per kilometre of CO2, not opt for the aforementioned elements consumption is increased on 0,3 litres.
