Electric Luxury: The Ultimate Driving Experience - Electric Flagship SUV by French Designers, 750km Range, Unveiled

DS N°8: A Crossover of Innovation and Sophistication

The official unveilings of the DS N°8 have brought with them a plethora of exciting features, marking a significant milestone for the esteemed French brand.

As its flagship model, the DS N°8 embodies the spirit of crossover design, blurring lines between styles to create a unique aesthetic. By adopting this cross-breed approach, the marque has also introduced an innovative naming strategy for its future models, which will be denoted by the addition of 'N°' followed by a digit.

Underneath its futuristic facade lies a sophisticated design language that combines the elegance of a saloon with the versatility of an SUV. The vehicle boasts closed-off, glow-in-the-dark mesh grilles below its gleaming LED headlights, accented by sharp, angular lines on either side. This distinctive pattern is mirrored in the 'Y' shape of its LED daytime running lights and accompanied by an expansive roof design.

On closer inspection, the vehicle's side profile reveals a dynamic, sporty profile reminiscent of the classic Grand Tourer, with a distinct SUV overtones to boot. A striking contrast is found in the sloping rear lid that creates a subtle visual tension, with the rear-mounted LED tail lamps cleverly shaped around an 'Y' design aesthetic.

Upon entering the vehicle, it becomes apparent that its interior design draws inspiration from yachting, bringing with it a sense of fluidity and freedom. The cabin features beautifully cushioned Nappa leather seating areas complemented by cutting-edge, angular X-shaped steering wheels that feel both futuristic and agile, controlling various functions via multiple touch-sensitive keys on the left-hand side, while providing quick access to the onboard infotainment system.

The cockpit of this technological masterpiece comes equipped with a stunning 10.25-inch all-liquid crystal digital instrument cluster alongside an expansive 16-inch high-resolution touchscreen monitor for seamless connectivity and control. The onboard audio system – comprising 14 full-bandwidth FOCAST speakers totaling an impressive 690watts is not only highly capable but aesthetically designed to accentuate its immersive sonic performance.

From its technical perspective, the DS N°8 presents as a forward-looking creation with three variant models under the e-motor electric drive umbrella: the base single-electric motor model delivering respectable efficiency of up to 572km and maximum performance of 230kW for both the all-wheel-drive front-wheel Drive variants. In marked contrast, the dual-electrified dynamic front wheel drive model arrives loaded not only at lower peak output levels but also possessing long-distance practicality at a level beyond 750km, complementing itself with the four-wheel drive variant capable delivering high-strength of up to 350kW and total travel range extending to an astonishing 686km.
