First drive review: the plug-in hybrid DS 9 executive saloon gains more power and a lower BIK tax band
. However, it doesn’t have as much power or space and, crucially, doesn’t enjoy the well-known badge of those cars.You need to be a bit different to buy a 9, and this 250 version won’t fundamentally change that.
What it does do is make the 9 slightly less compromised. It still isn’t neck-snappingly fast, with an sprint time, but then the 9 isn't a car to drive quickly anyway. It can do it, because it has ample grip and its adaptive suspension keeps body roll in check fairly well, but its strength is in wafting.
Wafting it does brilliantly. On the motorway, the ride is as plush as it comes, while there's almost no road noise and very little wind noise. The slowish steering takes any nervousness out of the responses, the adaptive cruise control and active lane-keeping assistance are well judged and the seats are comfortable on long distances.
Come to think of it, a torquey 2.0-litre diesel would suit the 9’s autoroute remit rather well, but it’s just not fashionable any more and wouldn’t sell at all. And there's much to be said for the plug-in hybrid’s ability to shut down its petrol engine under light load and to glide silently through town.
