Tweedehands Ds DS 3 Crossback

DS takes its name from the 1955 Citroën DS, the car that made Paris gasp at its unveiling and carried General de Gaulle safely through an assassination attempt. In 2014 PSA turned that legacy into a stand-alone brand, France's answer to the German premium establishment.

The DS 7 Crossback of 2017 was the first car designed as a DS from the ground up, followed by the DS 3, DS 9 and DS 4. The recipe is haute couture on wheels: watch-strap leather, pearl stitching, clou de Paris metalwork, and a Formula E team that won two titles along the way.

Today DS is Stellantis's French luxury brand, with the DS 7, DS 4 and DS 3 in hybrid and electric form and the N°8 as its electric flagship, and a plan to go fully electric by the end of the decade. Parisian style, sold on the idea that refinement is a French word.
