DS Range - updates, info and rumours

Any pictures? The one at the reveal wasn't very...revealing.

The article I linked has some pics but nothing that says its specifically the performance model.

DS Range - updates, info and rumours

Reminds me of this:



And this (in the sense that there seems to be a bit of grille ripping-off going on)



To me, it's a misguided facelift that could've been a lot worse, but also could've been significantly better. This feels like a change for the sake of it and they haven't even bothered to cover up where elements of the design don't fit - such as the old lights with the new grille.

Bit disappointing to me... on first examination, anyway!

There are rumours of a completely new C3 later in the year - most sources say it will be shown at the Paris show later in the year, although one says Geneva.

The reason for Citroen not running a full works team in the World Rally Championship this year was said to be because they are developing a completely new car for 2017; looks like that will be the new C3.

And the DS3 Rev 2 proper will fall out of that.

Yes - as I said in a previous post, probably a year or so later. Good for DS in a way - let C3 buyers find any flaws before the DS3 comes onto the market, although it means the DS3 is just marking time for a while.
