DS 3

New registrations in Europe

106,190 new DS 3 cars registered in the EU, Norway and Iceland between 2015 and 2022, from the European Environment Agency's CO₂ monitoring of every new car. In 2022 the largest markets were France (59), Belgium (16), Netherlands (4).

Averages are weighted by registrations; CO₂ is the type-approval value (NEDC until the WLTP switch). European Environment Agency, CO₂ emissions from new passenger cars · re-use permitted with acknowledgement

Real-world fuel consumption

545 DS 3 cars registered in Europe between 2022 and 2024 report their fuel use through the on-board meter. Petrol versions average 7.1 l/100 km on the road, against 5.9 l/100 km in the official WLTP test — 21% more.

Litres per 100 km: total fuel used divided by total distance driven, from the car's own fuel consumption meter (OBFCM), collected in 2024 by the manufacturers, mostly remotely, and by national authorities. WLTP figures are the type-approval CO₂ values converted to litres. Hybrids, including mild hybrids, do not plug in; plug-in hybrid figures include the distance driven on electricity.

What it costs in fuel

On real-world figures the petrol DS 3 uses 7.1 litres per 100 km, so 15,000 km a year takes about 1,070 litres: €2,377 at this week's average price in France, its largest market in Europe.

Fuel for 15,000 km (9,300 miles) a year at real-world consumption.
