Discover Citroën's New-Generation SUV: C5 Aircross, premiering Citroën's new “Progressive Hydraulic CushionsTM” suspension. Citroën's expertise in running gear is well established. The ability to develop comfortable suspension systems has been part of the Brand's genes for 98 years. Over the years, customers have become attached to the comfort delivered by Citroën, which is unlike anything else on the market.
Drawing upon its experience and the know-how of its engineers, Citroën has developed a new suspension system whose aim is to improve damping quality while maintaining the Citroën characteristics appreciated by Brand customers. Twenty patents have been filed as part of the development of this new suspension system. The principle of operation is simple. Whereas a conventional suspension system is made up of a damper, a spring and a mechanical stop, the Citroën system adds two hydraulic stops – one for rebound and one for compression – on either side.
In this way, the suspension functions in two steps, depending on input:
With slight compression and rebound, the spring and damper control vertical movement together without applying the hydraulic stops. However, the presence of these stops increases the vehicle's freedom of movement, creating a ""flying carpet"" effect, as if the car were flying over bumps and dips in the road.
In the event of greater compression and rebound, the spring and damper work together with the hydraulic compression or rebound stop, which gradually slow down the movement, thereby avoiding sudden jolts at the end of travel. Unlike a conventional mechanical stop, which absorbs and then partially restores energy, the hydraulic stop absorbs and dissipates this energy. As a result, there is no rebound.
