The DS 7 is a well-equipped, comfortable and reasonably practical family SUV. It can’t quite stand up to similarly priced premium SUVs including the Audi Q3 and BMW X1 though, falling behind when it comes to deprecation, how it drives and the quality of its interior materials.

Our preferred Performance Line + trim adds front parking sensors and a reversing camera, electric seats in the front (which are also heated), plus a heated windscreen for the winter.

The only diesel option in the range for those who need long-distance fuel economy or additional pulling power for towing. Not very swift at 10.7sec from 0-62mph.
