A year after the official launch of the brand, DS Automobiles is unveiling a high performance electric GT concept, the E-Tense.
It “silently” produces 516Nm of torque, 402hp and zero emissions, while having a range of 193 miles, or 224 miles in all-urban driving.
The car has the silhouette of a grand tourer coupé emphasised by a central chrome-plated spine and metallic green ametrine body colour.
DS upholsterers took 800 hours to design, test and produce the interior, with particular emphasis on the upgraded watchstrap style design on the seats and dashboard.
Other noteworthy features include the steel used for the dashboard and the tulip-shape of the steering wheel.
The car will be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show on March 1.
It will be driven as a demonstration of technology in France and the UK as a showcase for the DS brand, but there are no plans for the E-tense to go into production for sale.
