THERE ARE MANY reasons why you’d go shopping in Paris, and while some buyers might seek out designer brands such as Cartier or Louis Vuitton, DS would suggest that you round off your lavish trip with a visit to the brand’s showcase store – to splash out on a No8.
But what is it, exactly? Well, DS thinks of its pure electric flagship as a coupé SUV to straddle the gap between the Audi Q4 e-tron Sportback and Q6 e-tron Sportback. In outline, though, it’s more of an executive car in the mould of a BMW i4 or the chunkier Volkswagen ID 7.
