About the Citroën DS4
Launched as the second model in Citroën's premium DS sub-brand, the DS4 was designed to bridge the gap between a traditional hatchback and a crossover. It features a distinctive silhouette with hidden rear door handles and a raised ride height, though it remains strictly front-wheel drive. The 1.6 THP 200 variant uses the 'Prince' engine co-developed with BMW, offering respectable performance for its class. While praised for its high-quality interior and avant-garde styling, it is famously noted for its fixed rear windows that do not open. As a collector's prospect, it represents an early chapter in the evolution of DS into a standalone luxury marque.
