The dash board is so appealing! Those eyes! And in a 50kWh package! Ahh! I could only wish this kind of evolution in the DS5.

The interior design of this car especially in the white reminds me the design of hair saloons in the 90s

Best coverage by far! Reactive and detailed reviews! Keep up the good work!

It's really a good thing that you use a proper microphone. The audio quality is very good. There are channels with one million and more subscribers who shoot with the internal microphone of the camera, and the quality is awful, especially at car shows like this with lots of background noise.

Hello Thomas, it is really nice to get your first impressions on the new DS3. I must say that I try hard to fall in love with the overall design, but it is giving me a hard time and mixed feelings! I do support the idea of being original and offering something clearly different from the competitors, but there should be a fine line when it becomes overly designed. Front and profile are maybe acquired taste, but I am not fond of them. Only the rear works well for me as well as the rims. As for the interior... far too many triangles!!! Hopefully the built quality is there. I do like the Alcantara on the dashboard. Now, all my impressions are based on a video and I am sure that seeing the car in the flesh is a different experience. Finally, I look forward to your test drive and if you confirm that the car is quieter inside. Thanks for reading me through and please keep feeding us with your episodes! Amazing work as always :)

Nice preview Thomas! I honestly don't know what to think about the DS 3 Crossback... the C5 Aircross that comes out early next year is about the same price and seems to offer more versatility. So not really sure where this one could fit in, I'm rather happy with my Cactus which is about the same class of car and 15k cheaper (of course also not as well equiped but for a compact car... pretty much the same issue I have with the new A-Class).

Thomas again driving crazy all the other reviewers waiting in line hehe. Thanks for the detailed review, I enjoyed the close up shots. Regarding the wall mount charger in your garage, I reckon in Spain communities are forced to allow the installation by any neighbor. Our problem is the lack of charging points and of course the cost of electric cars.

Kudos to the DS marque for their attempt to market an interesting, err unique?, premium small car, with some practical features and neat details. Not quite as avant-garde as the 1955 Paris Motor Show and the Citroen DS perhaps, but brave! Great review and thanks for the hard work Thomas and Holger. Many thanks for the info.

Another amazing review.

I'm really looking forward to this car - especially because it will offer an full electric version. I hope this one won't be too expensive. Otherwise I will stick with the petrol version. It really looks very interesting and different and I like that luxury touch about it.

By the way, if you are more interested in the leather topic, we have extensive resources on this: We have researched this issue for many years now so please take your time to go through our extensive resources stated below as they answer every single question we have yet received concerning this matter. At Autogefühl, we have already received several thousands (!) comments, messages and mails that more and more people want to combine enjoying their car with reducing the environmental impact at the same time. We believe that sustainable luxury is possible or at least we should do everything to support that. Those many thousand people confirming this trend, motivate us to give you the most authentic information and background on the product parts. It is not about what you bought in the past, and it is not about blaming anyone, it is about what you decide in the future and what you can decide and influence as a customer. So we want you to have all information that you need for a decision you later enjoy and like best yourself. In Summer 2017, Tesla motors has decided to be the first manufacturer to go all the way with sustainable seat materials, only offering fabric/cloth seats or leatherette seats in different colours. They have banned all real leather from the seating surface and at the steering wheel in the white trim or on demand. So Tesla shows where the industry will and must be heading, just like they went forward with electrification first. Check out our special video addressing car CEOs as a first summary and also see conditions of animal skin production: kzread.info/dash/bejne/foKHt9yTiN3WlMY.html List of practical reasons against animal skin seats: 1. animal skin seats are often sold as an expensive option, by going for base trim level seats you can save a lot of money and get a better price-performance-deal (often the manufacturers claim that animal leather is top of luxury because they can earn the best money with it) 2. animal skin seats get hot in summer and you stick to the seat, probably you need seat cooling 3. they get very cold in winter and you need seat heating 4. on cloth or microfibre surfaces, you basically don’t need seat heating nor cooling 5. animal skin seats wear out very fast and look like an old sofa 6. if you want leather look or need seats that can be wiped clean easier, the leatherette (faux leather) surfaces are meanwhile highly evolved and it is possible that it feels even softer and better than anything else (See our Tesla Model X review kzread.info/dash/bejne/q2arsKl_e8SafZM.html) So Tesla shows a good example for that and as described, non-leather materials are now standard for ALL Tesla 7. More manufacturer names for their good alternatives: Mercedes MBTex/Artico for leatherette, Dinamica for microfibre. BMW Sensatec, Toyota Sof-Tex, Lexus Nu-Luxe (all faux leather) To the environmental reasons: 1. The way the cows and other intelligent and social animals are raised and held are not according to the basic values that we all share (also see videos below) 2. The factory farming industry can be accounted for at least 40 % of climate emissions and thus is (according to numerous sources you can look up) the number one reason for climate change and environmental destruction. It is the number one reason for deforestation, two thirds of all agricultural land on earth is used for growing animal food crops. If you would feed humans directly by using the agricultural land, you could produce much more food for everyone. See this interesting essay for more on climate emissions background: www.worldwatch.org/files/pdf/Livestock%20and%20Climate%20Change.pdf 3. It is not only cows who are suffering, but also the environment and to a big part also humans. Think of slavery-like working conditions in slaughterhouses (there are plenty of documentaries about this) or think of chemically altered drinking water in animal skin production villages as also seen in the video footage. 4. The discussion, for which body part the cow is killed first, is very patronizing. But if you really think it would be important why someone gets killed in first place: There are many productions where the cow is killed for the skin first, sometimes even while still being (part-)alive, the skin is the most profitable single part of the body. 5. So even if a cow gets theoretically killed for meat first, in every case you give additional money to an industry that relies on killing, pollutes the environment and harms people with chemicals. Let's say you are standing at the meat counter. And you ask for the leg of the cow. The butcher tells you: "You can eat that without worrying, the cow was slaughtered for the neck first". The next customer demands the neck. The butcher tells him: "It's not your fault, the cow was slaughtered for the belly". A the next customer demands the hide, what answer does he get? You see, that argument of "byproduct" comes from the meat and leather industry to cover up that you contribute to killing no matter which part of the body you buy. 6. To the often said argument, animal skin would just be a byproduct, please google/youtube "leather is not a byproduct" you will find plenty of information. A good overview on all those issues can also be found here: adaptt.org/ To “But leatherette is not sustainable due to petrochemical production” 1. Indeed some fabrics and micro fibres are oil based, however most oil is spent on energy production, heating and fuel. The share of oil used for artificial cloth etc. is very very small. 2. If you look at the whole production process, the leatherette is way more sustainable than the leather produce. Even if you leave the ethical aspect aside, here is the official calculation of the CO2-Output animal skin vs leatherette (different kinds of leatherette): Leather 17 kg CO2/m² PVC leatherette 10 kg CO2/m² Acella Eco natural leatherette 8,5 kg CO2/m² Benova (PUR leatherette): 8 kg CO2/m² So by using the latest high-tech leatherette, you even the CO2-emissions are cut in half! 3. The best to-come solution are indeed plant-based materials like Pinatex (based on pineapple leaves) or new materials based on mycelia (roots of mushrooms) or other innovative natural products. That’s the future. More special video episodes: 1. A initial special video from Autogefühl considering the use of leather can be found here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/apptk62gkrnIerQ.html 2. And another one right here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/poGCycWFdZOydLg.html 3. Furthermore, you’ll find the footage of leather production also here, where people are walking in chemicals etc. and animals have to watch their friends being slaughtered in front of their eyes: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fJ2ku9iudNavZtY.html timecode starting 27:46 4. This is another video which very well summarizes the torture of leather production, shots taken at big farms which directly produce for the automotive industry: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gZt81ZRsacWnnqg.html 5. Please note that those videos are made by well-known journalists and cameramen who were not influenced by any animal welfare organisation, they supply their footage to the animal rights groups of course. I partly know the creators of the video footage personally and they are all authentic. You don’t have to search long to find cruel production environments anyway. Manufacturers reactions: We started the very first inquiry years ago, with the result that car manufacturers do not reveal their sources of animal skin AT ALL. If it all would be clean and happening without harm, why don’t they show it to us whereas they are showing us every other detail of their products? They have good reason not to, because there is no such thing as a clean animal skin production without harming cows, humans and the environment. The only thing a manufacturer can do is increase their effort for a better future, and we are helping with in-depth talks and interviews by presenting the increasing customer demand for sustainable luxury. Tesla was the first one to react in a major way now. So meanwhile, we more often also get feedback that a lot of manufacturers are working on leather-free interiors and are aware of the situation. E.g. Bentley, Mini and Kia have started vegan car interior programmes. Besides Tesla, Mercedes already shows major choices for sustainable interiors, you always have to pay attention to the details when ordering, of course - and we are happy to give advice. However, much has to be done still and the Autogefuehl community is massively helping in boosting the positive change! Help to raise awareness on this subject. Thanks!

Having seen this car and the new A1 at the Paris motor show, I can say the DS3 was a very good surprise regarding interior built quality (much much better than the previous DS3). At the opposite the A1 was very deceptive on this point with a full interior door in hard plastic, a surprising move down in quality from Audi.

Wow - a 50KwHr electric. This is perfect. Not too big and yet just big enough. Perfect.
