PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF PERFORMANCE

RANGE

Combined according to the WLTP (i) The fuel consumption or electric range achieved, and CO₂ produced, in real world conditions will depend upon a number of factors including, but not limited to: the accessories fitted (pre and post registration); the starting charge of the battery (PHEV only); variations in weather; driving styles and vehicle load. The plug-in hybrid range requires mains electricity for charging. The WLTP (Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure) is used to measure fuel consumption, electric range and CO₂ figures. Figures shown are for comparison purposes and should only be compared to the fuel consumption, electric range and CO₂ values of other cars tested to the same technical standard. The figures displayed for the plug-in hybrid range were obtained using a combination of battery power and fuel. Information correct at time of going to print.

DS IRIS SYSTEM & CHATGPT
DS IRIS SYSTEM & CHATGPT

DS IRIS System offers you the services of ChatGPT (i) The new feature by DS Automobiles utilises the power of Generative Artificial Intelligence with SoundHound's Chat AI platform, which integrates several knowledge domains, combined with the most cutting-edge large language models like ChatGPT API to deliver more timely and comprehensive responses than the previous DS IRIS Voice recognition System. ChatGPT is integrated in DS IRIS System thanks to the audio and voice recognition system  of SoundHound. Being an Artificial Intelligence language model, it is developed to generate human-like responses based on deep learning, but as it is new and developing technology, its answers  or information may not be totally accurate, correct or objective. As with any other virtual assistant, we recommend you not to rely only on the information provided and to avoid sharing private information. Please refer to the terms and conditions.  

Already particularly intuitive and responsive, DS IRIS SYSTEM voice recognition system integrates SoundHound Artificial intelligence powered by ChatGPT API. 

Your DS is enriched with an innovative function that allows you to explore a whole new relationship with your vehicle, offering you a travel companion that will make your journeys even safer and more pleasant.
