Here is my first drive of the all new DS3 Opera E-Tense all electric hatch. Quirky styling and plenty of things to like !
New DS 3 is priced from £25,900 (Full pricing below) The line-up comprises four trim levels: Performance Line, Performance Line+, Rivoli and Opera.
New DS 3 is powered by a range of powertrains, including the all-electric E-TENSE variant that offers a range of up to 250 miles on a single charge (WLTP). New DS 3 is also offered with a choice of two PureTech petrol engines in the form of the PureTech 100 and PureTech 130. Depending on the engine there is a choice of a six-speed manual transmission or eight-speed automatic gearbox.
Featuring bold new design , the exterior of the New DS 3 has been updated to give a new dynamism and feeling of solidity, while retaining the brand’s trademark elegance. The interior benefits from luxurious materials including Alcantara® and Nappa leather, while the use of artisan techniques have been employed in the distinctive Watchstrap leather finish, pearl stitching and hidden seams.
New DS 3 also introduces new premium technology to the segment, including the DS IRIS SYSTEM already seen in the larger DS 4. The full HD 10.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system is supported by over-the-air updates and features the IRIS personal assistant with natural voice recognition plus wireless Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ smartphone connectivity.

We've had one on lease for a couple of years. My partner loves it so much she wants to get another once the lease is up. It does most things well, not too big, quite stylish with a fairly high seating position which ticked most the boxes.

I like the look of it, I always thought the earlier DS models were trying to hard I think the back would be too cramped for us and it looks claustrophobic in the back. I think that would be a deal breaker. Not sure about the angles on the dash, but the seats look really good Looks nice to drive, sometimes all out handling isn't the key, if has good balance, it can be fun I assume Stellantis will use the platform on the other brands, which will be interesting

A very nice first impression review. I like the overall look on the outside but inside it looks a bit fussy. Maybe in the flesh it would look better. I have always liked the quirky features of the Citroen/DS from the 50's onwards but lately until they started with the modern DS range they had watered down their quirky and individualness from pre 80's.

Just looked it up... DS3 Opera starts at £41,700 (£650/mth).... I think that is just too much! I have a Citroën E-C4. Top model is around £34,000.... It offers more space, similar design language, same battery & power.... Yet way cheaper. I am very happy with my car overall, on a day to day basis. On a long run, it's brilliant & easy to charge. What I would definitely NOT do is £8,000 more, more for a smaller car.

@Petrol Ped I just went to the DS Web site. It's easy to use and immediately offers finance and monthly figures. Of course there are deals to be done. On average the E-C4 is around £120/mth cheaper. Unless it is a leasing deal... then the prices would be closer. But I still end up with the same question. Why pay more for something smaller? Especially as DS3 is hardly a super mini DS1

I had two original DS3 Sports, very small, very fun and very quick. What they’ve done is the gold standard in how to ruin a good thing. It’s like a DS3 ate all the pies, then ate some more pies, then went to the factory and ate all the pies there too! Too expensive, too heavy and a completely different direction from the original cars. Hideous!

On the roof? It certainly won't fit in the boot surely? Boot opening button down in the mud, cardinal sin. Seats 10, Car overall 0 and I don't like Marmite 😅

I think we all now realise EVs in the current format are not going to be the future especially with the strong momentum behind Hydrogen. I do sympathise that unfortunately all new models are the dreaded EV so maybe branch out and review some classics which is now a big growing market.
