"Citroën’s rally winning heritage is stamped all over this streetable version of its WRC car driven by seven-time world champion Sebastian Loeb. The influence on its design is obvious and it translates to pure fun on- or off-road. Exclusivity comes standard as only 1000 were built. As hot hatches go, few match the deliberate rally-inspired design in the DS3R."—Official description[1]
