Details
DS 7 CROSSBACK is first of the second-generation models from DS Automobiles. This sophisticated SUV asserts itself with a feature at the front that is instantly recognisable: DS WINGS. From the side, its sculpted shapes and the intricate aesthetics of its alloy wheels emphasise its dynamism. Fashioned like a piece of jewellery, DS ACTIVE LED VISION is the exterior design’s finishing touch.
See better in the dark and be the centre of attention with DS ACTIVE LED VISION. The projector headlamps come alive the moment DS 7 CROSSBACK is unlocked. It’s a feat of technology and styling that together make your life safer.
Inspired by our DS E-TENSE concept car, 3D Full LED rear lights have a three-dimensional motif like the scales of a reptile. We think they’re an entrancing way to emphasise DS 7 CROSSBACK’s power of attraction.
Contemporary and chic, DS 7 CROSSBACK’s interior is an expression of the expertise our designers, engineers and craftsmen have put into it. Each material and every detail bears testament to the inspiration of Haute Couture.
The cockpit stands out thanks to its unique features: the ‘Clous de Paris’ Guilloché patterned accents, controls with crystal inserts, the B.R.M R180 watch and even ‘pearl-edged’ stitching. Two 12” screens are the perfect counterpoint.
DS and Focal worked together adapting the interior for perfect acoustics so you only hear sounds in their purest state.
As a celebration of Paris, the interior of DS 7 CROSSBACK is faithful to the DS philosophy of personalisation.
Therefore we’re offering four concepts, called DS Inspirations, that are designed to satisfy everyone’s tastes and desires. Choose yours.

“Each material and every detail bear testament to the inspiration of high fashion.” Thierry Metroz, design director DS Automobiles
In the tradition of quality craftsmanship, each detail and material used with DS Inspirations (real wood, Alcantara, grained and Nappa leathers, even the guilloché pattern favoured by watchmakers) is carefully chosen and worked with.
On board DS 7 CROSSBACK passengers enjoy unprecedented space, notably in the rear seats where the seat back can be reclined from 23° to 32°. The seats are created from high density mousse for maximum comfort and support. In the front they can be heated, ventilated and have a massaging function (five modes are available via the central touchscreen).
DS 7 CROSSBACK has the largest boot in its class (555 litres) with an innovative system to help with loading. The Easy Access Pack* comprises a motorised tailgate with a hands-free function. This enables it to be opened when your hands are full simply by moving your foot beneath the rear bumper.
Performance
Engines and gearboxes
Enjoy a truly dynamic experience thanks to DS 7 CROSSBACK’s choice of five internal combustion engines. Powerful and efficient, our engines are strictly in line with latest emissions standards (Euro 6.2) and stand out thanks to their remarkable torque. They’re also smoother and more responsive with our new eight-speed automatic gearbox (EAT8).
Our technologies follow the example of the 200-bar injection pressure seen on the THP engines while Stop&Start guarantees best-in-class fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
DS CONNECTED PILOT
DS CONNECTED PILOT helps to drive while enabling you to retake control of the car at any point. This is a step closer to autonomous driving. The innovative system regulates the speed and distance in relation to the vehicle in front. It also positions DS 7 CROSSBACK precisely in its lane by controlling the steering. It governs speed and direction guaranteeing that you feel safe and relaxed at the wheel.
DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION
Thanks to its camera and sensors, DS ACTIVE SCAN SUSPENSION spots every imperfection in the road surface.
This data is transmitted to a computer which controls each wheel independently, adjusting how firm or soft the suspension is for maximum comfort.
DS NIGHT VISION
We’ve designed DS NIGHT VISION to help you see better in the dark. An infra-red camera in the grille detects pedestrians and animals in the road up to 100m ahead. The system enables you to anticipate and react to danger accordingly.
