DS 7 CROSSBACK will be cloaked in Byzantin Gold paint, ennobling its muscular and sensual body styling. The vertical and prestigious DS Wings front end expressing all the car's nobility, performance and charisma. The new diamond-effect grille sports a hexagonal surround of dynamic lines, with the DS emblem taking up a prominent stance in the centre. - the modelled bonnet features subtle ribbing in the centre. The sharp edges of the front and rear wings sculpt the sides to enhance the muscular beauty of this SUV. - the wraparound tailgate and the distinctive rear lights, designed to resemble scales. Boasting 3D Full LED technology, they are directly inspired by the avant-garde style of DS E-Tense's latest concept car.

A high-performance hybrid E-TENSE, boasts power of 300 bhp, four drive wheels, and a range of 60 km in zero-emission mode. Developed by PSA Group engineers, the plug-in petrol hybrid drivetrain will be fitted on DS 7 CROSSBACK starting in 2019. With overall power of 300 bhp and a range of 60 km in zero-emission mode, E-Tense has a spacious cabin and generous boot volume, enabled by an ingenious and unique architecture that visitors at Geneva will be able to study up close thanks to a demonstrator next to DS 7 CROSSBACK.

The architecture combine the following components: - a 200 bhp petrol engine - two electric motors, one at the front one at the rear. The additional power provided by the two electric motors (80 kW each and up to 90 kW combined) to the petrol engine adds up to total power of 300 bhp; - an electric 8-speed automatic gearbox, positioned transversely across the front axle, between the 200bhp petrol engine and one of the electric motors ; - a compact lithium-ion battery with an output of 90 kW positioned under the row 2 seat floor ; - an electric rear axle providing 4WD versions with a remarkable level of performance . The 450 Nm generated by the 4WD versions ensures flexibility and responsiveness for an unrivalled drive. This layout means that the floor is virtually flat in row 2: a key advantage in terms of space optimisation. With this technology, the battery can also be charged when the vehicle decelerates or via the internalcombustion engine when in motion. In fast mode, the battery can be charged in under two-and-a-half hours on a 32A domestic socket thanks to a 6.6 kW charger
