DRIVING MODES

With DS 3 E-TENSE three drive modes are available drawing more or less energy from the battery:

Eco mode lets you conserve the range of your electric vehicle. Some functions such as cockpit temperature and recirculating air are slightly altered to reduce energy use.

Sport mode boosts driver enjoyment. When engaged it lets your DS 3 E-TENSE deliver maximum power and torque for a thrilling experience.

Normal mode controls the vehicle's various parameters to ensure maximum comfort on every journey.

REGENERATIVE BRAKING

Thanks to our participation in Formula E, we’ve developed several innovations such as regenerative braking. Like an engine brake, you can turn kinetic energy into electricity as you decelerate, thereby charging your electric vehicle’s battery. Through energy recovery during braking you can increase the range of your DS 3 E-TENSE by up to 20% around towns. This function can be engaged with a simple push on the gear lever.

THERMAL PRE-CONDITIONING

Pre-warming your DS 3 E-TENSE enables you to maximise the range of its battery. This function can be programmed remotely through your MyDS app. It means you’ll get into an electric vehicle that’s at the perfect temperature with a battery that’s also pre-warmed and therefore operating at its most efficient.

It's always the right time for charging

There are different ways to charge your electric vehicle’s battery. Depending on the means of charging you choose, charging time can be increased or decreased.

You can decide to charge in your usual parking places: overnight at home or during the day at work for example. On longer trips, stop for a short break at a rapid charging point. You’ll recover 80% of your range in 30 minutes.

RANGE INFORMATION

With the MyDS app, discover in real time the state of the charge or the estimated remaining autonomy. When your vehicle is plugged in, the speed and expected charging time are also mentioned.

REMOTE CHARGING

With remote charge control, use the MyDS app to initiate a charge or switch to scheduled charge. This function allows you to recharge during more advantageous time slots.

REMOTE HEATING AND AIR-CONDITIONING

The configuration of the thermal preconditioning of the passenger compartment allows you to program the heating or air conditioning of your vehicle. Designed for your convenience, this feature also helps preserve your battery life if the vehicle is charging.
