The two brand’s are already completely separate in China, and the fact there’s no Citroen badging on this car is a clear indication that the same is planned for Europe.

Not based on any existing car and not previewing any future model, the Divine DS is a clear indication of the styling of the future DS range. A large, diamond pattern grille, complete with a chrome surround flowing in to the headlights, gives the Divine DS a look completely separate from anything in the Citroen line-up.

DS describes the interior as being customizable to the needs of customers – buyers can choose from three interchangeable ‘ambiences’. Male uses natural carbon fibre and leather, while Parisienne Chic has ivory leather, silk satin and crystals. The Fatale Punk version has black padded leather and Swarovski Crystal Fabric, embedded with millions of tiny crystals.

As well as luxury and design, DS is pushing its technological knowhow on the Divine, which features laser indicators and a holographic display.

 

 

“Divine DS is an expression of our expertise. This concept car is the very essence of what DS is and what it will be. A perfect alliance between sophistication and technology. Unveiled just a few weeks after the birth of the brand, Divine DS perfectly expresses the unique personality of DS,” said Yves Bonnefont, CEO, DS Brand.

Power comes from a 1.6-litre turbo, producing 270bhp. Citroen says that as well as impressive performance, the Divine DS is also Euro VI compliant and emits just 145g/km of CO2.

  • It's okay, you're just feeling ambivalent

    I almost always struggle to describe my state of mind when asked to consider how I'm feeling. How do you express emotions that exist together but work in opposition to each other? When invited to join a gathering with friends, I delight over the prospect of catching up but also yearn to be lounging at home. I'm inspired by an accomplished co-worker yet envy her. I feel happy about a new beginning but nervous and, at the same time, sad over the closing of a chapter.  It's complicated. A
