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

[@lamsior]

Nowadays German cars seem so sad comparing to this beauty, i'do go for a DS for sure, beautiful car !

[@efthimiostsousis1147]

French nailed it in luxurious interior. The rear of the car looks stunning. Its so beautiful

Wunderschön Very Nixe Beautiful Macht ihrem Namen alle Ehre Die Göttin DS DS 4

[@MarkLaingold]

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 might convinve my dad to switch from the jag fpace to the ds7 etense 300 i hope im gonna succeed i love this car

I’m a massive fan of the DS cars and am hoping to purchase the DS4 hybrid sometime this year. The Citroen/ DS Marque has moved light years ahead of its poor past, fair play to them.👍 An excellent review as well, thank you so much🙏🙏

[@xristosemmanouil5494]

Waiting for my test drive and probably it will be my next car. A very beautiful car in my opinion with better price than Germans. German cars has almost everything optional

I have a DS7 in China where she is manufactured. She's very beautiful and runs perfectly. I'm not a car racer or technical maniac. I bought her just for her unique French elegance. Am I the only one who hate the boring Geramn desigh and confused by the painfully absurd Japanese design?

[@googlereviewer1944]

Good review. This guy presents really well - engaging but not OTT/annoying like many other car channels.

[@beany1987]

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.

[@AgentGreyFox]

This is my next car. Love the design

[@thomasheitmann1804]

Gratulation

[@Oscar-en1ib]

Car of the year imo

[@aburkhon9136]

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.

[@MrChrisK1973]

Nice review of a very unique car. Future buyer for sure!

[@MrSunnyBhoy]

Very very nice car

[@rayjennings3637]

I think that any of the German manufacturers seem to have lost the plot regarding design and seem to have fallen into the trap that Austin/Morris/British Leyland/Rover did all those years ago where they stagnated for a few years with old designs and not paying attention to what the opposition was doing!

Interior looks stunning!👌👌😊

[@KraftwerkGermania]

Fact...the DS4 is prouduced by Opel in Rüsselsheim/Germany

[@teddyboysdontknit810]

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.

[@KraftwerkGermania]

@@teddyboysdontknit810 and now? I see no mistake in my statement. And that BMW prouduced the X3 and X5 Series in USA its not a Problem for me. Therefore opend Tesla next time a Carfactory in Brandenburg/Germany for Model Y.

[@KraftwerkGermania]

@Roger The Brand (DS) is french not the car.

@Roger okay, after your Opinion must be Rolls Royce and Bentley a German Car and Jaguar is an Indian Car.

I have just ordered one of these as a more desirable, cheaper to run alternative to my Golf GTI

[@darrenmitchell5262]

Most of Europe are German car obsessed, the UK especially. It’s a nice alternative to a German car but because it’s French means it will sell in relatively low numbers.

[@kjm3672]

It seems to be because the Germans pretty much built their reputation from the past, and now we are too stubborn to move on and look elsewhere

I’m 5’10” and, with the front seat set up for me, I literally couldn’t fit in the rear seat behind the driver’s seat. I would hasten to add, I like to be near the steering wheel so would ideally have liked to have slid the driver’s seat about another 1/2”!

[@meozturk23]

All due respect, Please reconsider your decision to buy this car... I bought the 2023 model and have been dealing with its absurdities for a year. While driving, all the screens go out, I can't turn off the air conditioning, I can't see my speed, and I can't disable lane assist or the start-stop function. In short, I can't perform any actions that are controlled through the screens.
