The Elysee is a family sedan launched by the French Citroën Automobile Company in 2002. Citroën is the third largest automobile company in France, founded in 1915 by André Citroën. Its main products include passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. The headquarters of Citroën is located in Paris, France. The logo of Citroën is a chevron gear. In addition to the Elysee, common models under Citroën include the Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS, Citroën C5, Elysee, Citroën C3-XR, and Citroën C4L. The design of the Elysee began in 2003. The dimensions of the Elysee are 4427mm in length, 1748mm in width, 1476mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2652mm. In terms of power, the Elysee is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power output of 86KW and a maximum torque of 150 Nm.
I've been driving the Citroen Elysee, a compact car that's really practical. When I bought it a few years ago, I test-drove several brands and finally chose the Elysee for its high cost-performance ratio and affordable price, with the entry-level model costing just tens of thousands. The interior space is larger than expected, with enough room for three adults in the back seat, and the trunk can hold a lot of luggage. In terms of fuel consumption, I average about 7 liters per 100 kilometers. For daily commutes and picking up the kids, I don’t spend much on gas each month. The chassis is well-tuned, providing stability when turning in the city and confidence on the highway. I remember a long trip I took once—the seats offered good support, so I didn’t feel tired. Maintenance is simple; an oil change at a local shop costs just a few hundred yuan. Citroen has a good reputation among French cars, and the Elysee is designed for everyday comfort rather than sporty flair, but it’s durable. I recommend test-driving it a few times before buying to make sure it suits your driving habits. Overall, it was the best choice within my budget, and after five years, it still feels like new.
