This is the new DS7, and Mat’s about to find out if this family-friendly SUV has what it takes to compete with market-leading small SUVs like the Mercedes GLA and Volvo XC40! So let’s check out the design. It’s fair to say the DS7 certainly looks the part, with this updated model coming with all-new taillights coupled with the brand’s 3D name badge on the back. The model we have here comes with black cladding around the wheel arches, roof bars and some chrome surrounds on the windows. But the star of the show is up top, with an all-new grille at the front of the car that has some chrome inserts added to it. It’s also flanked by some new headlights and newly-designed daytime running lights. But while the looks are pretty impressive on the outside, it’s a different story on the inside. Clearly, DS has tried to make the interior design unique, there seems to have been more of a focus on being different rather than quality. There are lots of diamond patterns throughout the cabin, but the quality of some of these elements could be a bit better. The updated model also comes with a full digital dial display, but the graphics aren’t the best. All-in-all the interior is ok, but it’s losing out to its competitors in this department. When it comes to engines, there are a few to choose from, with the entry-level being a 1.5-litre diesel that drives the front wheels and delivers 130hp. There are two plug-in hybrids available, with the range-topper coming equipped with a 1.6-litre turbo petrol engine coupled with dual-electric motors to produce four-wheel-drive, as well as the ability to put down 360hp. If you’re looking to pick up an entry-level DS7 the price starts from around £37,000. However, top-of-the-range models come in at over £60,000! So is it really worth it?! Or could that £60,000 be spent on a much more established player in the market? You’ll have to stick with Mat and find out for yourself!Chapters 00:00 Intro 00:33 Design 02:58 Interior 06:09 Back Seats 08:36 Boot 10:03 5 Annoying Things 11:52 5 Cool Things 13:53 Trim Levels 15:38 Engines 16:35 Town Driving 19:05 Motorway Driving 20:36 Country Road Driving 21:42 0-60mph 22:54 VerdictMat's DS7 choice: Volvo XC40 review: Mercedes GLA review: Volkswagen T-Roc R review: https://hiblog.tv/carwowSell your car with carwow:
