Limited-run DS Performance Line brings Formula E style to DS 3 and N°4 with hybrid and electric options

DS Automobiles has unveiled a limited-run Performance Line for the DS 3 and N°4, drawing inspiration from the brand’s Formula E single-seaters. The spec is available with both hybrid and fully electric powertrains.

Outside, the cars pick up a black-and-gold theme: mirror caps, model badges and C-pillar details are finished in gold, while the grille and wheels go glossy black. Buyers can choose from Night Flight, Pearl White, Perla Nera Black, Cashmere and Cristal Pearl. The contrast suits DS’s sculptural surfaces, giving the compact bodies a purposeful, motorsport-tinged look without tipping into excess.

Inside, the emphasis shifts to a sportier mood with Alcantara trim and discreet Performance Line badging. In terms of equipment, this edition slots between the Pallas and Étoile trims—an arrangement that feels well judged for a style-led variant.

Sales begin in late January. The DS 3 Performance Line hybrid is priced at 40,940 euros, the electric DS 3 at 42,190 euros, and the N°4 costs 44,240 euros in this guise regardless of whether it’s specified as a plug-in hybrid or a fully electric model. The new treatment broadens the brand’s offering and joins the early-2026 motor-show roster.
