Aside from the image pictured above, the French carmaker is keeping mum on all the details simply stating that the “DS5 is set to bring distinctive new elegance and panache to the executive class”.
It is believed that the new DS5 will be based on the architecture of Citroën’s C5 mid-size model with engine options including the PSA Citroën-Peugeot group’s Hybrid4 diesel-electric hybrid powertrain.
The DS lineup was inaugurated in 2009 with the launch of the DS3 supermini, while Citroën expanded the range with the introduction of the DS4, a high-stance five-door hatchback, at the 2010 Paris Motor Show.

Last year, Citroen renewed its compact C-segment to launch a new assault on the Renault Megane, Peugeot 308 and Volkswagen Golf. A new C4 that we know for now only available in two volumes. And if the three volumes came into the range?
As you may know, the Citroën C4 was available earlier in some markets around the world, release three volumes and four doors. Remains whether the Citroën provides an alternative way for the new version of the C4.
In any case the proposal made by Theophilius Chin, great work Graphics used on future models to come from automotive manufacturers. So here he gives us his vision of a Citroen C4 II in three volumes and separate trunk. The lights return to the drawing from those of the five doors and the proposal seems credible, it would have its place in Chinese market, for example.

The French have created a new Citroen C3 ad interesting. They place great value on amenities enjoyed by their model.

Citroen, everything began with the DS3 in the construction of a parallel line to the other models. Things then continued with the DS4, arriving in turn at the marketing stage. Next step: DS5. The car has just been surprised in China.
Specialists SecretNewCars indeed bring photos of a vehicle caught in Shanghai. Few doubt, this seems like the next model of the DS range, larger than the recent DS4. The vehicle is partially camouflaged and hidden lines visibly unconventional: the profile evokes a sleek coupe and three-quarter rear view of a sports van.

Ask any French car fan what the most beautiful and technically advanced executive sedan of the 1950s was and most will reply, “The Citroen DS.” You only need to look at the styling of some of the DS’s competition – take the Alfa Romeo 1900 Ti, Austin A95 Westminster or BMW 501/6 for example – to see just how far ahead of its time it was.
Here was a car with a fully independent and auto-leveling suspension set up, front power disc brakes, power steering, a fiberglass roof and a hydraulically operated clutch and transmission. And the styling...
So if there’s any car worthy of a modern day revival, it’s the venerable DS. While studying at France’s Institut Superieur de Design, design student Ugo Spagnolo took on this challenge as part of his internship with Citroen.
With Spagnolo’s drawings at hand and the help of his friends at the institute, the 3D renders and animation were produced. It is said to have garnered favorable reviews from Citroen Styling Director Jean-Pierre Ploue.
Infusing the DS’s 64-year-old styling with the new Citroen design language introduced through concepts like the Revolt and Survolt, the DS24 is a real looker. With aggressive haunches, sliding rear doors, an almost Corvette-like nose and shapely rump, the Nouveau DS was imagined for Citroen’s Centenary in 2019.
And the interior does not fail to disappoint either, with its pulsing blue transmission tunnel suggesting the raw energy of the car’s hydrogen power source. Is it just me, or does that seem to be designer’s engine-of-choice these days?
