With a redesigned instrument panel, DS 9 M.Y. 23 gets the new DS IRIS SYSTEM multimedia. This features a fully revised interface that can be completely configured and personalised, and is responsive, slick and aided by IRIS natural voice recognition. The high-resolution 12″ touchscreen displays a menu made up of widgets to access all functions with a single movement controlling 3D connected navigation, air conditioning, digital audio sources and all trip data. This user-friendly screen also allows you to see a 360° view, provided by new high-resolution digital cameras, or to access the Mirror Screen, CarPlay and Android Auto functions via Wi-Fi or through two USB C ports.
Connected Navigation helps the driver by choosing the best route. It monitors traffic conditions and calculates the best routes in real time. The screen displays danger zones, including speed checks (depending on the country’s legislation), weather forecasts, place and prices of petrol stations or the location of public car parks and charging stations. For open-air parking, DS IRIS SYSTEM displays the probability level of finding a parking space street by street in major cities. All updates are carried out automatically.
DS IRIS SYSTEM is connected to the MyDS mobile app which allows you to send destinations from the smartphone to the DS 9’s screen, to program preconditioning of cockpit ventilation or battery charging, to consult the state of battery charge or data from previous trips, to receive proactive maintenance alerts or to use digital remote control to lock and unlock the doors, turn the lights on or sound the horn.

Also new to DS 9 M.Y. 23, the Alcantara® headlining takes on a Pebble Grey colour bathing the cabin in a hushed light.
ESPRIT DE VOYAGE Collection: remarkable expertise
The ESPRIT DE VOYAGE Collection is available on DS 9 M.Y. 23. As with high fashion houses and in line with the French art of travel, DS Automobiles showcases unique refinement characterised by an exclusive pale leather interior.
Light and bright colours finish off the interior with seats entirely from Pearl Grey Nappa leather watchstrap upholstery. The centre console, dashboard and door panel trim are all in Pearl Grey Nappa Leather.
The headlining is completely clad in Pebble Grey Alcantara® and the door armrests also take up this Pearl Grey colour, as does the braid on the front and rear carpet mats, which showcase a special Zéphir stitching.
On the panel under the central screen, the Pearl Grey nappa leather is heat-embossed with a technique developed by the DS Automobiles craftspeople to give relief to this unique shape. Inherited from the iconic guilloche embossed inserts from Parisian watchmakers, Clous de Paris marks the location of the DS DESIGN STUDIO PARIS from which rays stretch tracing a map of Europe. This design created for the ESPRIT DE VOYAGE Collection is executed in multiple ways for this Collection. These lines are repeated on the sills and badges for the front doors, as well as by laser engraving on the mirror housings.
The high-quality materials accompany other cockpit features with a Basalt Black grain leather steering wheel, a Basalt Black Nappa Leather dashboard top and a Black Alcantara® rear shelf.
