The cutting-edge aesthetic and technological changes of the restyled DS No. 4

The DS No. 4 facelift brings significant stylistic changes that modernize the look of this compact sedan. The front end, thoroughly redesigned, features a refined grille, adorned with discreet chrome and a DS logo highlighted by sophisticated Matrix LED lighting. Sleek headlights, integrated into the new lighting signature, give a more dynamic and futuristic appearance to the whole. Just below, a new flexible ventilation grille helps optimize engine ventilation, while accentuating the premium look. At the rear, the silhouette is refined by redesigned headlights, with a more fluid roofline that gives the car a sportier profile. The front end, comparable to some BMW or Mercedes-Benz models, is based on an architecture that emphasizes both luxury and performance. Technology and aesthetics combine in this update, notably with the integration of larger touchscreens, 10.25″ digital instrumentation, and enhanced connectivity, to ensure a connected and intuitive driving experience. To highlight this evolution, here is a comparison table illustrating the aesthetic and technological elements:

Features

The core of this update also lies in the powertrain offering. DS Automobiles has expanded its range to cover all buyer profiles, in a context where demand for electric vehicles continues to grow. The DS No. 4 offers several engine options, including a gasoline hybrid version and another fully electric version, eagerly awaited by an increasingly environmentally conscious clientele without compromising on style or comfort. The 145-hp hybrid version remains an affordable option, starting around €39,000, with updated instrumentation and enhanced equipment. The electric variant, meanwhile, offers 213 horsepower and a 58.3 kWh battery, guaranteeing a WLTP range of approximately 450 km. This electric engine, unique in its category, is a reminder that by 2025, DS Automobiles aims to position itself as a direct competitor to models such as the Volkswagen ID.3 and the BMW i3, while distinguishing itself through its high-end finish and refined user experience. Here is a table illustrating the engine range, with their introductory prices and key specifications:
