The passion for SUVs has managed to change the paradigm of the automotive sector, forcing brands like Porsche to have their own proposal. However, the compact segment seems to have withstood the blow, despite the cannibalization they have suffered within their own brands with elevated proposals . Hence, manufacturers do not give up developing this type of vehicle, which usually fits with a younger buyer, eager to feel the driving and with less demands on habitability. For this type of customer, with sophisticated airs and their own personality, PSA’s premium firm has launched the DS 4. Built on the same EMP2 platform as the Peugeot 308 , or the recently introduced Citroën C5 X, it will use its unique and daring design. to conquer the most exquisite and exclusive public.
DS had it easy to create a vehicle that was beautiful at first glance, just had to transfer the work done on models like the DS 3 Crossback or DS 7 Crossback. Both brothers share that avant-garde image, full of edges, which is accompanied by an important endowment of technology, such as the DS Matrix LED Vision optical groups. Its profile is the most characteristic detail for its low height and coupe airs, derived from the DS Aero Sport Lounge prototype that we saw walking a few months ago. For those who do not want to give up the trend of SUVs, because fashions are to be followed, it has the DS 4 Cross version, with visual details that try to evoke that versatility and adventure .
The DS 4 will arrive in our country at the end of 2021, prioritizing the deliveries of the launch version: La Première. It is a limited edition for the E-Tense 225, PureTech 180 automatic and the PureTech 225 automatic engines . Its technological arsenal and aesthetic details improve not only comfort on the move, but also safety. The launch price of this new compact, with the air of a crossover sedan, is 29,900 euros for the Bastil equipment with a 130 hp gasoline engine and automatic transmission, the only one available. In the gallery we tell you more about our first impressions of the DS 4.
