Last year, DS Automobiles unveiled the DS 7 Crossback Louvre Edition, in a bid to pay homage to the world’s most visited and probably most famous museum. If you live in the UK, you’ll have to spend upwards of £ 46,530 (US$ 63,540) in order to land one of these special edition SUVs, and if you like a well-specified car, then you’re probably going to enjoy what you’re getting here for your money.
The DS 7 Crossback Louvre Edition is based
on the high-spec Ultra Prestige trim and features gloss black surfaces on the
outside, unique 20-inch alloy wheels, pyramid shaped stainless steel air vent
controllers inside, Nappa leather on the console storage compartment, plus the
camera controlled DS Active Scan suspension and the DS Connect Pilot with its
level 2 autonomous driving features.
The French crossover, available in Ink
Blue, Perla Nera Black and Platinum Grey, is powered by a 1.6-liter PureTech
225 gasoline unit, mated to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. Total output is 225
PS. Buying a DS 7 Crossback Louvre Edition also means receiving a
“Friends of the Louvre” card which guarantees you unlimited admission to the
actual museum for one whole year.
