DS DS 7 Crossback (2017-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Distinctive looking alternative to the SUV mainstream	Doesn't drive as well as a BMW X3
Practical and roomy for people and luggage	Remote and uninvolving steering
Economical plug-in hybrids, if you recharge often	Firm ride on standard suspension

Quick Summary

The DS 7 Crossback (2017-present) stands out as a distinctive and proudly French alternative in the prestige SUV market. Unlike its German rivals, it offers flamboyant styling, a quirky cabin, and a sophisticated infotainment system. It's also highly practical, providing a useful 555 litres of boot space and ample room for passengers, including comfortably seating three in the back without a central hump, even in plug-in hybrid variants.

While its handling isn't its strongest suit, with a remote steering feel and a firm ride on standard suspension, the DS 7 Crossback offers a range of efficient engines. The E-Tense plug-in hybrids are particularly economical for company car drivers and those with charging access, while the BlueHDi diesel provides good real-world economy for longer trips. A 2022 facelift brought significant updates, including new E-Tense options and an improved infotainment system. Servicing is annual or every 10,000 miles with fixed pricing.

Best for: Drivers seeking a distinctive, stylish, and proudly French alternative to mainstream SUVs; buyers prioritising practicality, ample passenger space, and a generous boot; company car drivers looking for low BIK tax with the plug-in hybrid E-Tense models.

Not ideal for: Drivers who prioritise sharp, engaging handling and a particularly supple ride on standard suspension; buyers who prefer the traditional, more conservative styling of German rivals.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the DS 7 Crossback if: You're seeking a distinctive, stylish, and proudly French alternative to mainstream SUVs, prioritising practicality, ample passenger space, and a generous boot, or are a company car driver looking for low BIK tax with the plug-in hybrid E-Tense models.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise sharp, engaging handling and a particularly supple ride on standard suspension, or prefer the traditional, more conservative styling of German rivals.

Competitive Position: The DS 7 Crossback (2017-present) offers a bold and refreshing alternative to the established prestige SUV market. While it may not match rivals like the BMW X3 for driving dynamics or the Audi Q5 for all-round talent, its distinctive French design, practical and roomy interior, and array of hi-tech features make it a compelling choice. The E-Tense plug-in hybrids are a particular highlight, offering excellent economy and performance, making it a strong option for those seeking something different with a focus on style and practicality.
