FAQs

The current DS 4 is the second-generation model, and went on sale in the UK in 2021 – three years after the quirky first-gen DS 4 went off sale. There are a wide range of trim levels on the current car, including Performance Line versions that ape Audi’s S Line and BMW’s M Sport trims, and Cross versions with a slightly SUV-like design.

For the best blend of performance and economy, we’d pick the 1.6 PureTech 180 petrol engine. If you’d like the ability to drive solely on electric power around town or on your commute, go for the E-Tense plug-in hybrid.

Yes, the DS 4 would work well as a family car – as long as cars like the Mercedes A-Class and Audi A3 are also roughly the size of car you’re looking for. The DS 4 has a good amount of rear-seat space and a larger boot than its main rivals. At 430 litres, the boot is big enough for a weekly shop, a large pushchair or several suitcases. If you need a big family car, check out the larger DS 7 SUV.

The DS 4 isn’t directly made by Citroen but it uses a lot of the same parts as you’ll find in Citroen cars. DS started as an off-shoot of Citroen but now both brands are under the Stellantis umbrella, which means there are similarities with Peugeot and Vauxhall products, too. It’s built in an Opel (Vauxhall) factory in Germany.

Petrol DS 4s can achieve up to 48mpg (1.2-litre engine) or 44mpg (1.6-litre engines), while the diesel DS 4 is able to return 61mpg. On paper, the plug-in hybrid DS 4 E-Tense is the most efficient, promising over 200mpg, but this completely depends on you driving short distances and using the battery power as much as possible.

As it’s still quite a new car, it’s hard to say definitively whether the DS 4 is a reliable car or not. But its engines and many of its parts are used in a huge range of cars, none of which are known for being unreliable. If you’re at all worried, consider purchasing an extended warranty with your DS.

Yes, the DS 4 is a good car and is well worth checking out if you’re after a premium hatchback. It boasts eye-catching styling, a high-tech interior, solid practicality and an accomplished driving experience.
