The DS AUTOMOBILES DS7 CROSSBACK (2017-22) 5DR CROSSBACK 1.5 BLUEHDI 130 DPFR SS EU6 PERFORMANCE LINE EAT AUTO8 is a five-door premium family SUV, combining a raised driving position and useful cabin space with a more distinctive, upmarket feel than mainstream crossovers. Its diesel engine and automatic gearbox make it suited to longer journeys as well as everyday driving. Performance Line trim gives the DS7 a sporty visual character, while its comfortable, refined approach makes it a sensible choice for families, regular commuters and drivers wanting something more individual. Against rivals such as the Audi Q5 and BMW X3, it stands out for French styling and a less familiar badge; buyers should compare equipment, condition and running costs carefully.

Checked cars averaged 43,000 miles and 11,000 miles a year, with an average private-sale valuation of £20,800.
