SAVOIR-FAIRE
DISCOVER THE ATTENTION TO DETAIL
Pearl Stitching
Inspired by high fashion and perfected by our craftsmen, Pearl stitching adds to the elegance and delicacy of detail while posing a real challenge. The thread disappears as soon as it appears in the leather giving a rhythm to the stitching that needed more than four years of work and the development of a special machine. It's a unique process in the automotive world that has quickly become a key DS Automobiles signature.
Watchstrap Design Upholstery
From tireless working with leather, contours, patterns and incredible expertise comes the iconic folding technique that adorns our seats with the watchstrap design upholstery. A single sheet of leather, trimmed, stuffed and folded by our master upholsterers results in a one-off item that’s an avant-garde benchmark. Initially made for our concept cars, it now features in interiors throughout our current model range.
QUALITY WITHOUT COMPROMISE
Our craftsmen, upholsterers, designers, trades, experts and engineers work with materials and enhance technology to refine every detail and finish to create something that blends refinement with performance. Completely handmade, some detials evolved to become iconic signatures of our Brand, immersing you in our world of innovation and unbelievable comfort.
DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION
Faithful to the origins of DS Automobiles, hydraulic suspension has been replaced by DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION which instantly analyses data from the road to adjust how hard or soft the suspension is and guarantee the best possible ride comfort.
HERITAGE
THE BIRTH OF DS: AN INSPIRATIONAL ICON
In 1955, the first DS made its debut – and caused a sensation – at the Paris Motor Show, making its mark on automotive history. An innovative car, graceful and glamorous, it brought to life luxury French expertise and the spirit of the avant-garde which still today defines the philosophy at the heart of our DNA and inspires all our designs.
TIMELESS TECHNICAL SIGNATURES
From the DS of the last century to the models of today and tomorrow, our teams work with the same thirst for the avant-garde, for distinction and for elegance by reinventing original technology such as the directional lighting or hydraulic suspension and making them powerfully defining features, adapted for the latest expectations in mobility.
THE ART OF DS
GET RIGHT TO THE HEART OF THE DS AUTOMOBILES BRAND
When avant-garde technology meets the poetry of design, when competition gives birth to innovation, when high quality materials are combined with the craftsman's remarkable expertise, the car becomes high fashion.
Seven years ago, DS Automobiles set itself a challenge: to revive the savoir-faire of the luxury French car.
But how do you launch a brand into a market that isn’t expecting it?
“The Art of DS” documentary uncovers this epic story.
