French cars of the D and E segments are constantly being upgraded. Admittedly, they quickly gain loyal fans, but their sympathy does not translate into sales results. Fortunately, the French do not stop trying to prove to the world that they are able to create an Executive sedan. Proof of this is the latest DS model-the representative DS9 model.

The car was created on the basis of the modular EMP2 platform, which is also based on the new Peugeot 508. The body measures 4.93 m long and 1.85 m wide. The wheelbase is up to 2.9 m. thus, the DS9 is noticeably longer than the Peugeot. In size, which can be easily compared with the Mercedes E or BMW 5-series, it fits perfectly into the European e segment.
Under the hood, we'll find a 225 HP PureTech petrol or e-Tense hybrid. There will be three options: the basic (front-wheel drive) 225 HP and more powerful: 250 HP (front-wheel drive) or the 4x4 version with 360 HP.Initially, the first one will appear in the offer. Batteries with a capacity of 11.9 kWh are guaranteed to have a range of 40-50 km. The electric motor itself develops 110 HP and 320 Nm, which allows you to move the car in emission-free mode at a speed of up to 135 km / h.regardless of the version, the standard should be an eight-speed automatic transmission.http://fiatforum.lv/http://fiatforum.lv/
