IN PICS: DS X E-TENSE - Stunning future supercar! Feature, specs, speed, other details
DS Automobiles' future supercar -- the DS X E-TENSE -- is reportedly being test driven, as the company targets a 2035 release. The car has two different engines, one for race tracks and the other for road use. The three-seater vehicle is a blend of eye-catching design, asymmetric shape, and new technology. For road use, peak power stands at 400kw (540 horsepower), a figure that rises to 1,000kw (1,360 horsepower) in ‘circuit’ mode. The company says that the car is as ‘light as a feather’ and as ‘silent as a breeze.
The vehicle's body is capable of recovering its original form after an impact, while the configuration of the front grille and DS X E-TENSE’s cooling capacity adapt to the driver’s impulses. Here are the main features and specifications of the car:
DS X E-TENSE driving mode:
The car is expected to be released by 2035. The owners of this car will be able to select the driving mode that matches their need at any given moment.
DS X E-TENSE - Adaptability:
The vehicle's body is capable of recovering its original form after an impact. Not only that the configuration of the front grille and DS X E-TENSE’s cooling capacity adapt to the driver’s impulses and the brightness of the light is controlled by an automatic function to adjust based on the requirements of the occupants, the car and its surroundings.
DS X E-TENSE - driver's seat:
The car's seat adapts perfectly to the driver’s build like the fitted seats seen in motor racing.
DS X E-TENSE - Passengers' seat:
The passengers have to climb into the cocoon part of the interior through a gullwing or falcon-wing door. The layout of the car is such that when a passenger is enclosed in the capsule, snug in a ventilated, its massaging seat stretches back like a bird’s wing with a feather star motif crowning the top of the back, the company said on its website. It gives passengers a different kind of experience.
