Reviews of the first owners of the novelty characterized it as a very successful car premium-class with good running characteristics, which could boast a high level of comfort. It is not surprising that the demand for the car was appropriate. As a result, in 2014, French developers upgraded the model. Then the updates touched the maintenance predominantly. In February 2015, the car was restyled in the next, and so far last time. Motors line replenished with new aggregates. In addition, the car received updated appearance and equipment. About him and will be discussed in more detail below.
Exterior
In the appearance of Citroen DS4, the eye rushes, first of all, a rapid silhouette with bright design elements, as well as the prevailing muscular lines. In front of the front, an original lighting equipment is allocated, consisting of bi-xenon headlights and daytime led lights. She makes the "look" of the Machine Machine. In addition, it is impossible not to note the big air intake, which is bangible on a powerful bumper, and the logo of the manufacturer, made in the form of a double chevron. The back of the car looks monumental. Pretty original here you can call the design of exhaust pipes. In addition to them, the compact luggage compartment door with a small glazing and a complex LED lighting system rushes.
Gabarits.
The length of the car is 4275 mm. At the same time, it accounts for a wheelbase 2612 mm. The parameters of the novelty in width and height are respectively 1810 and 1523 mm. As for clearance, the auto rises above the ground by 195 mm. Speaking about the dimensions, it is impossible not to note the original wheels of Citroen DS4, which is completed by their appearance the dynamic appearance of the machine. Their diameter is in the range of 16 to 18 inches, depending on the configuration.
Interior
The design of the car's salon, as well as its ergonomics, is at a high level. On the diluted brilliant inserts with a massive steering wheel, which is located at the bottom (on the principle of sports car), there are many buttons for control. The central console is made in the usual style for French manufacturers. In particular, here you can see a seventh screen of the multimedia system, bizarre and competently condated climate control panels and music. Citroen DS4 also looks beautifully. Reviews of the owners of the machine, on the other hand, indicate far from the highest of their informativeness.
Comfort and free space
The decoration of the internal space of the model fully corresponds to the class of the machine and is made of high-quality materials. In particular, the salon uses pleasant to the touch elements from genuine leather and plastic. The front armchairs look just gorgeous. Moreover, numerous reviews indicate that their design provides an optimal landing to all people, regardless of their growth and physique. Thanks to their convenient profile with pronounced lateral support, the driver is not tired when traveling to long distances and comfortably feels in steep turns. As for the convenience of passengers behind the rear, then they will have to do with the small height of the transmission tunnel. In addition, the lasthest words deserve the local stock of space on all fronts. The only thing that might cause their complaint is the lack of its own windows and a narrocated doorway. Both of these nuances, according to representatives of the manufacturer, are associated with a very bizarre and unusual form of the rear doors of Citroen DS4.
Luggage compartment
The useful volume of the car trunk is 385 liters. At the same time, this indicator is not limit. The fact is that if necessary, the back of the rear seating can be folded. In this case, the free space of the luggage compartment increases to a level of 1021 liters. Whatever it was, it should be noted that the perfectly smooth place in this case does not work. The trunk is also located a subwoofer and a spare wheel. Depending on the option of configuration, there may be either a complete "spare track" or "Single".
Configuration in Russia
For domestic buyers, several options for the configuration Citroen DS4 are envisaged. The technical characteristics of the simplest power unit (atmospheric four-cylinder 120-strong motor volume of 1.6 liters) allow you to overclock the machine to "hundreds" in 10.8 seconds. The maximum speed of the car, while 193 km / h. It functions such an engine in the complex with a mechanical gearbox for five steps. As for the size of the fuel consumption, its indicator in the mixed cycle is 6.2 liters per one hundred kilometers of the mileage.
An interesting and more productive modification of the mentioned installation is its forced version, equipped with a direct fuel injection system. Motor power equals 150 "horses". This version of the engine works in a pair with a six-band "machine". This combination allows you to overclock the machine to 212 km / h, while to achieve a mark of 100 km / h, it takes 9 seconds. According to the reviews of the owners of the car, for every hundred kilometers of travel in this embodiment, an average of 7.7 liters of fuel is necessary.
The elder gasoline unit for Russia became the "four" volume of 1.6 liters, the highlight of which can be called a unprofitable system for the formation of the fuel mixture. In addition, the engine boasts the presence of a two-channel turbine and a direct injection system. The power of the unit reaches the mark of 200 horsepower. This option is combined with a manual box for six steps. The maximum speed of the car is 235 km / h, and 7.9 seconds are required to "hundreds". With such impressive indicators, the size of fuel consumption can be called very modest - 6.4 liters per hundred kilometers.
A two-liter turbocharged diesel engine, which develops 160 horsepower, marvels the line of power plants provided for domestic customers Citroen DS4. The characteristics of this engine allow you to overclock the car to a mark at 100 km / h in 9.3 seconds. At the same time, its highest speed is limited by an indicator of 192 km / h. An impressive can be called an indicator of economy, because in a mixed cycle for each "hundred", only 5.7 liters of fuel goes on average.
Chassis
The car is built on the PSA PF2 platform. It should be noted that earlier it has already managed to prove it well in models and peugeot 3008. Front uses the McPherson type suspension, and the rear is a twisted beam. Regardless of the option of the configuration, all Citroen DS4 cars are front-wheel drive. According to the reviews of the car owners, at the high-speed arc, it is very confidently holding a road surface, and small irregularities are practically not felt. At the same time, many of them celebrate quite loud suspension work, especially if you compare noise with a similar indicator of German cars from this class. Whatever it was, thanks to such relative simplicity, the "Frenchman" is much easier and cheaper.
Safety
Speaking about the security of the Citroen DS4 model, it should be noted the fact that the driver's life, passengers, as well as third parties in emergency situations, is called up by a number of programs. Among them, it should be noted ESP, ABS, a system of assistance and brake force control, driving optimization unit in difficult circumstances and control of traction. In addition, the car is equipped with disk brake mechanisms of the eighth generation on all wheels and airbags.
Cost
conclusions
Summing up, the model should be called a bright example of a car, in which the developers managed to provide a practically perfect balance of reliability, ergonomics and comfort. Being easy to manage, the car has become an excellent solution for exploitation in conditions of domestic roads available for many average Russians.

Why does Motor Citroen fail?
If the power unit does not start, repairing the engine Citroen DS4 and eliminating the following problems:
- Deformation and pollution of the fuel system elements. Over time, hoses and connecting nodes of the fuel pump are destroyed due to vibrations. After applying low-quality fuel to wired channels, impurities and dirt are inserted interfering with liquids pumping.
- Deformation of electrical wiring components. Cutting the wires and oxidation lead to a short circuit. This may detain an electronic control unit and cause critical damage on the power plant.
- Replacing fasteners. On distributors, ignition coils and generators poorly tightened fasteners break and burst. If you do not replace the products, the mechanical destruction will continue and the Citroen DS4 engine will have to be changed completely.
