The DS 3 was the model that started it all: a stylish three-door premium supermini launched in 2010 (as the Citroen DS3, before DS became its own marque) and built until 2019. It was a rival to the Mini that put personalisation first. It led to a DS 3 Cabrio and a fast DS 3 Performance, and it was the marque's best-seller until the DS 3 Crossback SUV took over the name.
The DS 3 is a three-door premium supermini built from 2010 to 2019. It was launched as the Citroen DS3, before DS became a separate marque, and was offered as a hatchback and a Cabrio.
