The DS 7 Crossback E-Tense is the flagship of the premium firm of the PSA group . The brand started its solo journey to emphasize French luxury and develop vehicles with an exclusive philosophy. The portfolio of models has been growing since its emancipation, always under the motto of knowledge but with an eye on the electrified future of the automobile. The DS 7 Crossback E-Tense is the best example, with two electric motors and one gasoline that produce (together) 300 hp . We talked about it during its launch, highlighting its premium essence and all the technological artillery that it incorporates. An aspect that is not at odds with fun, as demonstrated a few days ago during the 4×4 driving tests carried out at the Baqueira Beret ski resort. Of course, Michelin and its Pilot Alpin 5 SUV had a lot to do with it.
These tires, designed to improve grip on areas with worse grip, delivered perfectly. They showed off the more off-road look of the DS 7 plug-in hybrid, unleashing its performance capabilities without compromising its balanced handling. The partnership between the two French firms is not new. DS fully relies on the wide range of Michelin, a manufacturer that is able to offer a specific tire for each season. If you can’t afford that outlay, you can always opt for CrossClimate, all-season tires that are efficient throughout the year.
The DS 7 Crossback E-Tense is not only a superior design vehicle , it also comes loaded with a technological arsenal in terms of comfort and safety. All these systems make it an easy vehicle to drive, whatever the conditions. We were able to verify this by passing tests such as crossing bridges, lateral inclination and driving on muddy tracks, an environment that feels phenomenal to your silhouette. No matter the 20 inches of its rims or the nappa leather inside, the hybrid DS 7 showed its wildest side with hardly any disheveled. Michelin’s contribution was vital to understand the importance of fitting the right tire, let’s not forget that our only contact with the ground is through this component.
