NEW DS 4 2022 UK review: can it really rival the Germans?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The all-new DS 4 majors on luxury and comfort, and is claimed to be a true rival to the likes of the BMW X2 and Audi A3. But can it really take them on at £25,000?
Well at first glance it's clear to see DS means business. The new DS 4 gets striking looks that set it apart from some of the more muted designs of its rivals, and features a cabin that's covered in leather and wood (DS is very proud of its wood). There's also so really interesting tech features, such as a neat 5-inch touch panel in the centre console, as well as an optional PHEV that can cover up to 35 miles on electric power alone. But we've heard the likes of DS saying they can rival the Germans for years now, so is the DS 4 really that much of a game-changer?

    You don't get half of the tech and material quality, even on X3 or Q3. Also the "legend" of blasting on autobahn... most Germans tend to drive efficiently there, around 140km, and for that, DS does a fine job. 90% of drivers don't need those huge motors for most of the time. I drove through all Germany with 225hp Peugeot 508, and it was superb and very efficient motor. Never felt needing for more, be those mountains or autobahn. I own DS7, and can 100% say, it's much better than most German rivals in the same, and even higher price segment.

    I have the last model ds4 and everything is more or less original on it, its done 95k and its all original suspension components, clutch, gearbox, ball joints, bar the brakes and tyres and timing belt at 88k iv had no issues whatsoever with it service every 6k did have a issue with the dpf during lockdown but put some dpf cleaning foam direct onto the dpf not had a problem since. The quality is far better than alot of previous French cars in the category.

    Looks great, drives great, seats are very comfortable - they're like armchairs and very supportive. My only negatives are that the back doors only open a little bit, cheapest leather material used for interior dashboards to get easy scratch and also the rear seat space is a bit tight, not ideal for kids or and car seats. It doesn't hold its resale value very well, but apart from that it's a great car.

    Careful with the facts, Opel was a German brand purchased by General Motors of America and now under the PSA drivetrain Group owned by Peugeot and make many brands and parts for companies like BMW. Nothing is that simple in the car manufacturing world. You are right that this car will be built in the Russelsheim plant but so is the Vauxhall Astra and others, it’s a PSA plant, Opel is only a brand. My previous BMW was built in America and finished off in Germany.
