The first-generation DS 3 Crossback is a five-door SUV with choices that suit different driving routines. Your priorities—gearbox preference, equipment and access to charging—help determine which version makes sense.
DS 3 Crossback engine options include the gasoline 1.2 MT, whose manual transmission lets you choose the gears, and the diesel 1.5 AT, which handles shifts automatically. These selected examples use front-wheel drive, as does the electric e-Tense CVT. Consider how often you drive in traffic when choosing your transmission.

DS 3 Crossback trim levels describe equipment choices alongside the technical version. Grand Chic is an equipment configuration available with the electric e-Tense CVT. When considering a particular car, check its fitted features: seat comfort, parking aids and multimedia functions can matter as much to everyday satisfaction as the powertrain.
The e-Tense CVT uses a lithium-ion battery. DS 3 Crossback battery capacity helps you assess stored energy, while usable range also depends on speed, weather and heating use. For everyday convenience, consider where you can charge regularly; on longer trips, charging stops become part of your route planning.
