On the parade in Paris on May 8, the bulletproofed DS N ° 8 was lit up with Presidential, and then the brand press service shared official photographs of the car and even allowed me to look into the salon. Emmanuel Macron received the flagship of the French brand DS, so for the first time the main transport of France was an electric car, and even in the back of Cross-liftbek!
Could, but failed: Citroen C6
Outside, DS N ° 8 Presidential is not much different from the source: the thickened glasses are barely distinguishable, except for fasteners under the flagpole on the front wings, LED strobe scraps on the bumper and behind the glasses, as well as a light signature on imitations of the radiator grille in the colors of the French flag.

There is no information on the class of ballistic protection, but the sophisticated cross-liftbek does not involve the installation of a heavy capsule. Another detail – DS N ° 8 Presidential was created under solemn ceremonies so that the French president can open the roof and greet the audience. With such a technical task, the capsule is impossible in principle. The interior is almost standard, but the front panel is decorated with a special decor, which is made manually.

They produce DS N ° 8 in Italy, but on French components: in the fifth republic a battery and electric motors were made, and reservation were also engaged in their homeland.

The source can exchange 100 km/h from a place in 5.4 seconds and drive up to 686 kilometers (WLTP).
DS will sell crossovers-brine trees, like the President of France
The last car of Emmanuel Macron was also a slurry: since the summer of 2022, the French president used the DS 7 Elysse hybrid. For the past year and a half, to acquire an armored car, like a French leader, anyone could not have been supposed only to a “limousine” insert.
