Hotter than Audi would ever dream to make.

But in typical French supercar concepts fasion, they’ll probably never build it.

Better than the R8, absolutely.

Looks pretty interesting but why did they put a large grille on it? An electric vehicle doesn’t need much cooling.

I’m with you on this one. The DS looks like a college student’s design project.

If you guys remember the failed French supercar Exagon Furtive e-GT, the DS uses its platform and powertrain. Carbon monocoque, Siemens batteries, 4.5s 0-62mph, 200 miles range. The Exagon has been in development for years and all it needed to be produced was clients, but at 400,000€ it never found enough. But should DS decide to actually produce this concept car, the plateform is tested and ready.

Branding.

If they managed to get the platform used as a concept vehicle by a major brand it wasn’t a complete failure.

Branding sucks. Cars should look fun and interesting not similar with each others.
