DS has teamed up with fashion company Ines de la Fressange Paris to launch a special edition of the DS 3 Crossback. Limited to 1,500 examples, it is named the DS 3 Crossback Ines de la Fressange Paris and boasts exclusive looks inside and out.

The special edition DS 3 Crossback is finished in Ink Blue, which is exclusive to this version, with a Perla Nera Black roof. Ines Red accents have been applied to the side mirror caps and the centers of the 18-inch diamond alloy wheels, which are also exclusive to the model.

 

Inspired by leather weaving techniques, the weavers in the Ariege region of southern France have come up with a unique material for the seat cushions that combines different fabrics. Created in a joint development between DS and Ines de la Fressange Paris, it has a subtle blue color and is combined with Alcantara and red stitching.

Besides the special upholstery, the limited edition features a leather-wrapped steering wheel, aluminum pedals, a 10.3-inch touchscreen display and automatic climate control. It’s also equipped with LED lights, front and rear parking sensors, blind spot monitoring, lane keep assist and emergency braking up to 140 km/h.

Customers can order the DS 3 Crossback Ines de la Fressange Paris either with the BlueHDi 130 diesel automatic, the PureTech 155 and Puretech 130 automatic petrol units, or the E-Tense battery-electric powertrain. Production will begin in the coming weeks and deliveries will commence from January 2021.
