What's new in the all-new DS 3

The availability of the New DS 3 launched in the Greek market! The newest model of the DS Automobiles, faithful to the innovative and subversive style of the brand, made his first official appearance at the most prominent couture institution, Paris Fashion Week, receiving rave reviews from the public and journalists.

The DS 3 CROSSBACK was presented for the first time to the Greek public in 2018 where its innovative design, the luxurious materials with their specialised processing techniques and its technological innovations, set it apart from the competition, while two years later its all-electric version made it the reference point at Premium B SUV Category.

The New DS 3, updates its exterior design, incorporates new technologies, improves the efficiency of its engines and achieves the brand's key objective: provide its passengers with a level of quality and luxury never before achieved in this category.

 

 

Construction and quality of materials

The New DS 3 is based on the latest generation CMP platform in order to provides optimum safety, driving pleasure and comfort. At the same time, this "multi-energy" platform can accept a fully electric drive system, without any loss of performance or compromise in cabin or luggage space..

 

 

New exterior design

The New DS 3 maintains its bold design identity, while adopting clean lines that accentuate his outer appearance and further highlight his refined silhouette that evokes a sculpture.

The front part of the New DS 3 follows the new design identity of the DS Automobiles. The subtle LED headlamps, part of the standard equipment, and the daytime running lights, which consist of two vertical LED strips, are highlighted by the new DS signature grille and redesigned DS Wings. But alongside the aesthetic excellence in the design of the New DS 3, the emphasis was on optimising aerodynamics. In the lower part of the grille, the air intakes are flanked by two airfoils, which significantly improve the aerodynamic coefficient of the vehicle.
