10 years after the release of the first generation model, we finally ushered in the second generation model of DS 4. The previous generation car was introduced to the Chinese market in 2012. Although there are still new cars on sale in 2016, its very unique appearance and high price have indeed turned it into an out-and-out niche car. Judging from the official image of the new DS 4, the aggressive appearance and the more “classical” design of the interior may still make it a jewel in the eyes of a few people.
In terms of appearance, the new generation of DS 4 is based on the EMP2 platform. The overall shape looks more sporty. It adopts the latest design style of DS. The design of the headlights with Σ shapes on both sides is very eye-catching. It is worth mentioning that it is also equipped with matrix LED headlights.
On the side, the new generation DS 4 cancels the design of the door handle on the C-pillar of the previous model, but restores the traditional style, but the tilted-down roof still brings more sporty style to this car.

It is reported that in addition to the traditional hatchback style, the new-generation DS 4 also provides a more sporty Performance Line version and a CROSS version with higher ground clearance and more SUV-like.
Compared to the current design trend of abusing large screens, the DS design team has obviously maintained a considerable degree of restraint on the new generation of DS 4. The standard T-shaped central control is simple and smooth. The 10-inch central control screen, air-conditioning control area, double flashing button and shifting area are clearly arranged in their proper positions. It is worth mentioning that the new car will also upgrade the interactive mode of the multimedia system while adopting the electronic shift mechanism.
