The model
Read full ds-automobiles DS 3 review
The DS 3 is more luxurious than the average small SUV, with a higher quality interior and comfier ride than, for example, a Ford Puma. However, it’s also more expensive than plusher premium-brand rivals. That, combined with lacklustre practicality, makes the DS 3 hard to recommend. If you do buy one, we'd stick with entry-level Pallas trim.
The trim
Pallas is the entry-level trim, but it comes with some luxuries and is our recommended option. It has 17in wheels, automatic air conditioning, tinted rear windows and a wireless phone-charger.
The engine
The all-electric E-Tense feels strong on the road and is very quiet but its official range falls short of newer electric SUVs.
