It will soon be time for the DS7 Crossback to go through the restyling box. A redesign that could take place before the end of the year.
New DS7 Crossback 2022 – After having worked on Peugeot 3008, and more recently onOpel Grandland, the waltz of the reliftings of the compact SUVs of the Stellantis group will take place on the premium of the band. By the end of 2021, the DS7 Crossback will therefore review its copy, before the loop is closed by the fourth thief of the band named Citroën C5 Aircross, current 2022.
Four years after its launch, the flagship of DS SUVs testifies togood commercial health, at least on the tricolor market, to hold out against its German rivals (Audi Q5, BMW X3 Mercedes GLC), in terms of sales figures. For maintain this good dynamic in the second part of the career, the DS7 Crossback will very soon modernize its style and update its equipment, without forgetting to go upmarket in terms of engines.
Less chrome
From an aesthetic point of view, the modifications will be observed mainly at the level of the bow of the DS7 Crossback. Inspired by recent DS4 and DS4 Cross, the big brother will reduce the sails on the chrome side, as has been advocated for some time by Thierry Métroz, at the head of design. A desire for simplification to highlight the lines of the vehicle, without resorting to unnecessary artifices. Thereby, the grille should abandon the upper DS Wings, which currently emphasize the optics, to maintain only the chrome ramp topped with the license plate. Logically, we should expect a redesigned shield with sharper lines, integrating more prominent light signatures, in the form of sticks. But Stellantis will probably limit the costs by renewing the rest of the bodywork stampings identically. This DS7 Crossback 2.0 should be content to review the design of its lights and rear bumper, all like the rims.
No revolution on board
In the passenger compartment, the designers will have revised the atmospheres, particularly in terms of colors and materials. The design of the cockpit will not be upset but could accommodate new digital panels, with better definition, and incorporating a more responsive multimedia system. For its part, the style of the center console is subject to change to integrate, between the two front passengers, the gesture control system DS Smart Touch, inaugurated by the DS4. The latter would then be supplemented by the module of DS Iris voice recognition.
360 hp on the program?
Under the hood, the DS7 Crossback should not upset its current offer, in the classic range. But it is rumored that she would be enriched bya very high performance variant, embodied by the 360 hp plug-in hybrid unit bubbling aboard Peugeot 508 PSE and DS9. A fine cavalry that would allow him to rub shoulders with the 341 hp of the Audi SQ5, even to 390 ch you Mercedes-AMG GLC 43 AMG. To run in 100% electric, it will be necessary to wait for the second generation, hoped for by 2024. By then, the thermal blocks will have been converted to 48V micro-hybridization.
Prix DS7 Crossback
The presentation of the restyled DS7 Crossback is scheduled before the end of the year, and could take place from november, before the first deliveries expected in early 2022. Already claiming € 37,300 at the entry level, at present, the newcomer should happily exceed the € 38,000 when it is renewed.
