Citroen unleashes two new DS3 concepts

Citroen has unveiled two new striking concepts - based on the DS3 and its cabriolet variant - before their official premiere at DS World Paris and the upcoming Paris Motor Show. Both concepts feature strong styling, designed for a chic Parisian, elegant, bold, modern and independent.

Citroen believes the co-operation between DS3 and Ines de La Fressange Paris is a natural meeting between an iconic fashion house and an iconic car as both share the same taste for elegance, sophistication and modern design.

The two unique cars differ first and foremost for their bodywork colours, creating an alliance of chic and sobre hues. The DS3 is draped in satin-finish Ink Blue, forming a perfect match for the glossy Onyx Black roof.

In contrast, the DS3 Cabrio is adorned in glossy Perla Nera Black, showcasing a mat Infinite Blue roof with an Infinite Blue soft top. The new colour adopted for the soft top creates new potential for personalising the DS3 Cabrio.

Designed to showcase the DS3 new light signature, both versions feature exclusive 'Ines Red' door mirror housings. DS3 gains a range of personalisation features including an 'Aeropostale' adhesive signature in red, white and blue, across the back of the car, an enamel-effect emblem with the words 'Ines de la Fressange Paris' on the central pillar, as well as wheel hubs and DS logo surround in Ines Red.

Both the concepts share the same interior, featuring the three emblematic colours of the union in a carefully matched layout. The seats are upholstered in Granite Blue grained leather with white topstitching. A leather of exceptional quality is found on the headrests, with the same 'Aeropostale' signature as on the bodywork.

The dashboard is also easily identifiable in Ines Red with an enamel-style emblem. As a final touch of sophistication, protective mats with edging inspired by the 'Aeropostale' signature further enhance passenger comfort.
