Our quick take

Alternatives to consider

DS 7 Crossback - 4.0 / 5

DS design brings touches of flair 

Lights, camera, night vision action 

DS 7 Crossback interior styling 

The technology load-out is large 

A comfortable ride, but not quite a luxury drive

Animated inside and out

To recap

While the technology options appeal, the lack of the E-Tense PHEV at launch is a missed opportunity for this car to really shine. Some of the design details may divide opinon, but pick the right options and you’ll have an comfortable and distinct SUV.
