Introducing the DS 3 CROSSBACK
Modern, sophisticated and elegant, the DS 3 CROSSBACK is a premium compact SUV offering excellent levels of refinement and advanced technology.
Powerful and efficient engine and gearbox combinations will never leave you short of power when you need it, whilst simultaneously returning excellent fuel economy and low emissions.
There's even the option of a fully electric version, called the DS 3 CROSSBACK E-TENSE, if you're looking for a vehicle with even lower running costs and zero tailpipe emissions.
Design and Practicality
The DS 3 CROSSBACK boasts a striking new design that focuses on creating a comfortable and luxurious place for you to spend time in every day.
The inside of the DS 3 CROSSBACK is a sea of luxury and refinement; you’ll find high-quality materials throughout the interior alongside a distinctive dash and central fascia. The digital cockpit is designed to deliver essential driving information at the touch of a button, making daily driving safer and more convenient as a result.
Comfort is a key focus, whilst vibration and road noise are kept at bay with ease thanks to the superior insulation that features throughout.
Practicality is decent too, for a vehicle of this size. For example, the boot has a loadspace of 350 litres or 1,050 litres with the rear seats folded down.
Technology and Safety
The DS 3 CROSSBACK isn't short of technology that makes life easier. The car will automatically open when it detects your keys so you don’t have to get them out of your pocket and you can even grant access remotely using the MyDS mobile app.
The impressive Head-up Display has been inspired by fighter jets, which projects vital information onto a transparent strip in the driver's field of vision; meaning you never have to take your eyes off the road.
DS 3 CROSSBACK is designed to be the perfect co-pilot through the use of DS Drive Assist, which takes you a step closer to autonomous driving. Longer journeys are made easier by combining a host of driver aids such as active cruise control, which maintains your speed while keeping a safe distance from the car in front.
Powertrains and Performance
Three powerful and efficient PureTech petrol engines are available with either 99, 128 or 153bhp. If you go for the least powerful option you will gain a smooth 6-speed manual gearbox, but if you go for the two more potent engines they are equipped with a slick 8-speed automatic transmission.
If you do higher mileage, then the latest BlueHDi diesel engine, with 99bhp, will serve you well thanks to its decent fuel consumption figure of up to 62mpg.
Also available is the DS 3 CROSSBACK E-TENSE, which is a 100 percent electric model providing plenty of power in almost complete silence.
