  • 2 new DS models incoming?

    Seen a french magazine pop up in my RSS feed this morning with a very interesting headline of the Citroen DS6 "5 Metre Deluxe"

    Thought I'd look a bit more into it and found this forum here.

    My French is a bit rusty / non-existent, but my picture reading skills are excellent Also seem to be talking about the DS9 as well but we kinda knew about that one anyway

    Another article here.

    "This is the first photo of the DS6, the future luxury sedan that the French brand is going to present in the form of concept-cat, in April at the show in Shanghai. Unless either the DS-X SUV, expected as much ... Until then, only illustrations of the Citroën DS and DS6-X existed, or it was filmed this week Lozère while filming an advertisement."!

    Grill looks great, not sure about the rest.

    DS6:

    The Citroën DS6 Concept may have slipped out ahead of the showcar's planned debut later this year. What is believed to be the big DS was seen lounging on the streets of Paris during a recent photo shoot, and while initial photos like the one above show the car covered by a well-placed cloth, new shots from L'Automobile have come out that show the concept in its entirety. The massive alloys shown above look to be the same as the ones we've already seen poking through the lens-flare-riddled teasers. Details are still scarce about what the DS Concept will bring to the stage in terms of drivetrain, but the French automaker has made it clear it has its eye on creating a new, large cruiser aimed squarely at the large-sedan hungry Chinese market.

    Citroën is likely to unveil the DS6 Concept at the Paris Motor Show in September, and may borrow more than a few elements from the Citroën Metropolis Concept built just for the Shanghai World Fair. While the exterior elements may vary considerably, both vehicles are expected to carry approximately the same dimensions. That means the DS6 may be over 17 feet long and more than six feet wide.

          Realistically that couldn't be parked here in the UK, the spaces just aren't big enough....

          I'd quite like those wheels on my DS3 though !

              I don't really like that covered-up-in-plexi grille. But I fear it may be the new thing for the design of future citroens..

                There are two new DS on the horizon as well as the China only DS9 according to a French report a few weeks ago. The DS9 in the flesh is gorgeous (see Paris Show Blog)

                  I think the DS6 looks pretty cool... could they make it any wider and longer though?!

                            Just clarifying as the one article is a year old (no Paris Show this year) and the spy shot under covers is the DS9. The other article has front on shots of a car with a higher body stance. The world premiere of the 9 ad was shown to us at the factory last April.

                              As ADI said the car shown is the Citroen Numero 9 Concept.
