DS DS 3 Electric Lease Deals

The DS 3 Crossback E-Tense is the first all-electric vehicle from chic French brand DS. It’s a compact SUV packed with stylish features and personalisation options that make it stand out from some of its better-known rivals – just look at the large front grille and the diamond-styling inside. It’s comfortable and loaded with technology and its avant-garde style will certainly turn heads and get people talking.

Key highlights

The DS 3 Crossback has the edge over anything else in this class when it comes to style and comfort. The ride is smooth and quiet thanks to the suspension technology that irons out any bumps in the road. The high-quality interior, with luxury materials and unique design touches, will have you thinking you’re in something much pricier. There’s a generous 350-litre boot and just about enough space for five adults, although the rear seats are probably best for occasional use rather than every day.

Performance and range

The 50kWh battery is enough for 232 miles, while the 136bhp electric motor is certainly no slouch, getting from 0-62mph in just under nine seconds. There are plenty of trim levels to choose from to get the perfect spec that suits you, starting with entry-level Bastille, followed by Rivoli, Performance Line, Performance Line+ and even a Louvre special edition. Each level adds unique styling elements and extra technology.
