Electric vehicles

While preserving the habitability of DS 3, our 100% electric version offers you pleasure and comfort. Thanks to its E-Tense motorization, which incorporates technologies responsible for the victories of DS Automobiles in Formula E in 2019 and 2020, you benefit from 400 km autonomy (in WLTP cycle). A summary of performance and elegance.

DS 3 e-tense 100% electric

Refinement goes into 100% electric mode

Pure and intense, the conduct of our electric model is distinguished by immediate acceleration and a soothing silence for incomparable comfort of use.

The advantages of an electric vehicle

Clean and efficient driving

The DS 3 E-Tense electric car offers you without compromise performance:

• Style and comfort for new driving pleasure
• Zero emission and vibration efficiency
• Immediate accelerations

Without restrictions

Contribute to improving air quality in town, and enjoy certain roads and locations restricted to traffic authorized to you. The city opens up to you.

Government aid

The electric car opens you to several government aid:

• Ecological bonus for a new or used vehicle
• Conversion bonus of 5,000 euros
• Exemption from gray card costs

Savings on maintenance expenses

With their simplified engine, electric vehicles require little maintenance:

• Wear parts are fewer to replace
• Brake discs wear out less quickly
• Emptying, the change of filter is no longer necessary

Power & Flexibility

Driving modes

At the wheel of DS 3 e-Tense, three driving modes are available to you, allowing more or less strong solicitation of the battery.

Eco mode allows you to preserve the autonomy of your electric vehicle. Certain functions, such as the temperature of the passenger compartment and the recycling of the air, are slightly modified, thus reducing energy losses.

Sport mode increases driving pleasure. Once triggered, it delivers the maximum power and torque of your DS 3 e-Tense for an exciting experience.

The normal mode pays the vehicle parameters to get maximum comfort during all your journeys.

Regenerative braking

Thanks to our commitment in Formula E, we have developed several innovations including regenerative braking. Like an engine brake, it allows, during the deceleration phases, to transform kinetic energy into electricity, thus recharging the battery of your electric car. Thanks to braking recovery, you can increase the autonomy of your DS 3 to 20 % in town. This function can be activated with a simple impulse on your gear lever.

Thermal pre-converting

Program the heating of your DS 3 E-Tense makes it possible to maximize the autonomy of its battery. This function is adjustable on board, via the touch screen or remotely via your MyDS application. You will then enter an electric vehicle at the ideal temperature and a battery also preheated, thus offering optimal operation.
