The very first cars from the DS brand may have shocked prospective customers while the subsequent ones may have seemed a bit bland. Would the new DS4 be the right balance, the car that eventually put the thins right for DS, Citroën’s posh badge ? That's what we think after a week spent behind the …

The Subaru XV was launched back in 2017 and is nothing more than an lifted up Impreza featuring outdoor overalls.
