N°8: A MODEL OF “AERO EFFICIENCY”
Inspired by the DS Aero Sport Lounge concept, N°8 conveys a progressive approach to great French coachbuilding. It is fully in line with the avant-garde of the original DS introduced in 1955, whose 70th anniversary DS Automobiles is currently celebrating with a special exhibition at Retromobile. Bursting with refinement and technology, the design of DS N°8 is a forecast for the future and a manifesto of the French Art of Travel.
At the front, N°8 implements an innovative and enthralling light signature through an illuminated and aero-efficient grille, the DS Luminascreen and headlamps consisting of three modules outlined by eight LEDs that pick up the Clous de Paris pattern. The front and rear DS Lightblade complete this signature. Beyond their aerodynamic contribution, they allow the car to be visually placed on the road and emphasise its width by asserting its stature, while making DS N°8 identifiable from more than 100m away.
With N°8, DS Automobiles is revisiting the rules of automotive luxury by combining technology and innovation with craftsmanship. The DS N°8 interior embodies comfort, serenity and French luxury. The wide dashboard wraps around the occupants and exemplifies the seamless spirit (‘Seamless Design’). The purity of its design combines a high level of expertise (‘High Craft’) and advanced technology (‘High-Tech’), which bears witness to a perfect chemistry between DS Automobiles technology and expertise in the use of material.
The high-performance panoramic glass roof bathes the cabin in natural light, creating a serene and welcoming ambiance. This balance is supplemented by the car’s benchmark acoustic treatment. With optimised aerodynamics, laminated glass and careful soundproofing, every trip on board becomes a journey in first class.

PALLAS and ÉTOILE.
The Pallas trim, available in FWD and FWD Long range, offers a very complete range of equipment, including the DS IRIS system with 3D connected navigation, wireless Android Auto and Apple Carplay, a wireless smartphone charger, keyless entry and start, front, lateral and rear parking sensors and reversing camera, regenerative braking that can be adjusted via paddles on the steering wheel, laminated and acoustic glass, privacy glass at the rear, heated seats, heated steering wheel, dual-zone automatic air conditioning, multi-ambient lighting, power tailgate with hands-free access, DS extended head up display, stainless steel door sill protectors and much more.
The Étoile specification, available on FWD, FWD Long Range and AWD Long Range, stands out for its DS Luminascreen grille and adds DS drive assist 2.0, DS pixel led vision, digital driver’s mirror and 360 Vision.
Sustainability at the heart of materials in DS N°8
N°8 is available in a choice of five colours, three of which are new: Topaz Blue, Palladium Grey and Alabaster White, added to which are Crystal Pearl and Perla Nera Black.
In addition, a black roof or an extended DS Duotune that includes a black bonnet are available as options. The extended DS Duotune emphasises the character and accentuates the elegance of the N°8 silhouette. The ‘Paintjet’ technology used to create the duotone bonnet’s black surface is a world first in mass production. Its application process does not require a curing phase and thereby keeps down greenhouse gas emissions.
N°8 provides a striking choice of interior harmonies to accompany the Pallas and Étoile specifications. The new Eternal Blue harmony is the signature colour of the interior of the N°8. The DS Pearl and Eternal Blue canvas and Eternal Blue Alcantara® settings are animal free and mainly made of recycled materials. The Alezan Brown Nappa Leather interior is made with smooth and supple premium leathers that are vegetable-tanned with olive leaf.
