Citroen DS5 spy video

As the Citroen DS4 readies for its market debut, the new Citroen DS5 is also in the works.
This spy video doesn’t show us much at all, but the large crossover model and next member of the DS family could have dimensions similar to the Peugeot 3008.

We won’t be seeing this at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show which starts tomorrow as that event is reserved for the DS4 production version; but the DS5 could turn up later this year at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show in September.

The DS5 will get the new diesel-hybrid Hybrid4 set-up: the current technology is the PSA’s source of pride right now on the ecological front.
While the DS model range has taken a different design turn between the DS3 and DS4 models, the DS5 will probably be more in line with the latter and providing the diesel-hybrid all-wheel drive option could make for an interesting model.

The technology uses a 2.
0 HDi engine with 163 hp, combined with electric-powered rear wheels where the electric motor provides another 37 hp.
This would make the DS5 an interesting all-wheel drive crossover model.

We’re suitably intrigued and will wait for more in months to come.
