Counting on extra luxury for DS No4
-
Stellantis premium carmaker DS has been rather quiet of late. This year, though, panache is back. There's a new naming structure, with new models adopting a luxurious perfume-sounding “No” (number), and there’ a new electric range-topper called No8. Following quickly on is our test car, the No4.
WHAT'S NEW?
The No4 isn't all-new, it's just had a facelift, but Stellantis has finally allowed DS's posh hatchback to come into the electric age.
Despite the previous DS 4 using the same platform as the Citroen C4, Peugeot 308 and Vauxhall Astra, it was never available as an EV.
WHAT'S UNDER THE BONNET?
The No4 E-Tense gets a 58.3kWh battery hooked up to a 213bhp motor to drive the front wheels. That means the DS gets a larger battery and more power than its Stellantis stablemates, so there's more to brag about. It also has a claimed range of 279 miles, and is capable of DC fast charging up to 120kW.
