FAQ DS 3
Performance
DS 3 is available in a hybrid version incorporating a 1.2 litre turbocharged petrol engine with a 48V battery electric motor that helps with acceleration and allows you to drive electric in the city (up to 18 mph). It is self-charging (no need to plug the car in) and has a power output of 145 horsepower.
DS 3's compact size and its handling ensure a serene driving experience in the city and a smooth ride thanks to the 5 zeros: zero noise, zero vibration, zero gear changes, zero CO₂ emissions during driving and zero smells, while remaining versatile for longer journeys on roads and motorways.
Complete and intense, driving our electric version stands out with immediate acceleration and a soothing silence for incomparable comfort of use. Born from a new platform and made from innovative materials, DS 3 E-TENSE gains in range - up to 250 miles in the WLTP combined cycle. Equally comfortable on getaways and long trips, DS 3 E-TENSE can be charged in just 30 minutes from 10% to 80% battery capacity at a 100 kW rapid charging station.
