A Guide to EV & Hybrid Charging

Powering your DS Automobiles is a seamless process designed to complement your lifestyle. Our vehicles utilize standard universal European ports: a Type 2 connector for everyday alternating current (AC) charging across both our plug-in hybrid and 100% electric models, and a high-voltage CCS connector reserved exclusively for rapid direct current (DC) charging on our pure electric E-TENSE range.

Electric

Experience high-performance electric technology with a powertrain that is 100% electric, powered entirely by a high-capacity rechargeable battery. By plugging into a domestic socket or a public fast-charging station, the vehicle can be fuelled using clean, renewable energy sources. Thanks to this advanced battery capacity, these models deliver a significantly greater electric driving range than plug-in hybrid cars providing an impressive 249 miles or more of zero-emission, uninterrupted driving.

Plug-in-Hybrid

Experience the refined comfort of electric driving seamlessly blended with the uninterrupted power of a traditional combustion engine. This versatile plug-in hybrid drivetrain combines a responsive petrol or diesel engine with an advanced electric motor. The onboard battery self-charges by recovering kinetic energy during braking and deceleration, but it can also be plugged into a domestic socket or a public charging point for maximum efficiency. This delivers a significantly greater electric-only range than a standard hybrid allowing you to commute completely emission-free for between 18 and 50 miles before the engine takes over.

Hybrid

Enjoy the freedom of driving electric without ever needing to plug in. This advanced drivetrain seamlessly combines an internal combustion engine (petrol or diesel) with an electric motor and a self-charging battery. Instead of using cables, the system automatically recharges its battery by recovering kinetic energy every time you brake or decelerate. While it features a shorter electric-only range, it is perfectly optimized for town driving slashing your urban fuel consumption and emissions while delivering a smooth, effortless ride.
