DS Automobiles has put in place all the machinery to carry out the renovation of its popular compact SUV. The new DS 7 Crossback 2023 has been photographed in broad daylight doing road tests. The French SUV will premiere design, equipment and many other novelties.
The time has come for the largest SUV marketed by DS Automobiles in Europe is renewed. The very interesting French premium brand is working at full capacity on a tune-up for the DS 7 Crossback. A facelift that will allow this generation, the first, to face the rest of the commercial life that lies ahead. It is one of the novelties scheduled for this year.
In previous publications we have been anticipating various keys to the new DS 7 Crossback 2023. However, no prototype had been seen by our spy photographers. The truth is that the DS brand can boast of avoiding prying eyes. Until now. And it is that several test specimens of the new DS 7 Crossback have been hunted in broad daylight.
Spy photos of the new DS 7 Crossback 2023
Sightings of these prototypes show that DS is working at full capacity on the long-awaited “facelift” of its first SUV as an independent brand. But, What news will this update bring? Spy photos make it clear in which parts cosmetic modifications will occur. And it is that the camouflage is only present in the front and in the rear.
As it is a facelift, we should not expect very radical changes in terms of design. The most obvious modifications will be concentrated in the front part. The front and rear light clusters, which use LED technology, will be updated. Nor should we lose sight of the grill and the front bumper. In any case, it is important to remember this recreation of the DS 7 Crossback 2023 that we published just a few months ago.
These spy photos do not allow us to take an indiscreet look at the cabin, but we can also anticipate that there will be very interesting news inside. The improvements will focus on this aspect in the technological equipment and customization. The brand will introduce new finishing options for the seats and/or trim. In addition, the infotainment system will be updated and will be accompanied by a new touch screen.
The engines of the new DS 7 Crossback 2023
Regarding the mechanical section, we should not expect great surprises. The main actions will be aimed at improving efficiency. It will continue to be available with gasoline and diesel engines. The plug-in hybrid versions (PHEV) known commercially as E-Tense will also remain in the portfolio. And in this regard, DS is expected to increase battery capacity to increase 100% electric autonomy.
When will it hit the market? Some reports indicate that the debut of the new DS 7 Crossback will take place next summer, with the 2022 Paris Motor Show being the chosen setting for the first contact with the public. The order book will open before the end of the year and it will arrive in dealerships as a 2023 model.
