The Divine DS first appeared at the Paris Motor Show in 2014 and bosses stressed from the outset that such a model would never make production. However, they did confirm that aspects of the design will make their way onto new DS models in the not-too-distant future. Almost 10 months later – and just weeks after the Divine was showcased on DS’s stand at Goodwood – Auto Express has been given the chance to drive it.
The first thing you notice is how small it is. Forget the show pictures, this is a beautifully-proportioned Ford Focus rival whose footprint resembles more DS 3 than DS 4. However, open up the lavish scissor doors and you reveal an interior like no other.
There’s an aeroplane style squared-off steering wheel and classy heads-up display, while the sharp diamond shapes and intricate buttons for the gearbox dominate the centre console. The sweeping leather dash is another interesting feature, and it continues through the car past the front seats and into the rear.
