DS DS 3 Review
Which DS 3 is Ideal for You?
The DS 3, formally known as the Citroen DS 3 or DS 3 Crossback, is a luxury supermini produced by French manufacturer Citroen. Launched in 2010, it was the first entry-level model from the DS premium brand.
The DS 3 is a classy French Crossover SUV with great looks and the latest technology. The DS 3 is a good choice for this competitive market. From a personal car leasing point of view, its excellent residual values often mean you can get a higher specification model and a better all-around deal.
DS 3 started life as a three-door hatchback, the second generation from 2019. It is now a stylish 5Dr hatchback crossover with a front engine and front-wheel drive.
The DS badge with Citroen is an iconic executive brand associated with style and French sophistication. It was lauded in the 60s and 70s as super cool and at the forefront of technical development. That French savoir-faire carries through into current marketing with the DS range, offering premium exterior styling and quality interior finishing.
