I've always been fascinated by automotive history, and the origin of DS Automobiles is actually quite cool. It was initially a premium sub-brand of French automaker Citroën, with its name derived from the iconic 1955 Citroën DS—a revolutionary masterpiece of its time featuring hydropneumatic suspension technology that delivered silky-smooth rides, earning it the affectionate nickname 'Goddess.' In 2014, Citroën decided to spin off DS as an independent brand, now known as DS Automobiles, specializing in French luxury design. Contemporary models like the DS 7 Crossback continue this legacy of elegance while integrating modern technology. As a longtime car enthusiast, I find its story emblematic of automotive evolution's charm—from classic to innovation, always pursuing elegance and practicality. If you delve deeper, you'll discover DS isn't just a brand but a symbol of French industrial heritage, constantly inspiring curiosity about the rise and fall of classic models.

I love design and art, so the design language of DS cars really appeals to me. This French brand emphasizes French aesthetics, with each model's front fascia sculpturally three-dimensional, featuring crystal-cut elements in the headlights and sleek, dynamic body lines. The interior is even more impressive, using high-quality leather and metal accents, with details treated like haute couture, giving a sense of luxury and simplicity. As someone who pursues unique style, I feel driving a DS is like piloting a moving work of art—it doesn't follow the formulaic approach of other luxury cars but blends Parisian artistic flair. This design philosophy extends to color choices and materials, making car ownership not just about transportation but about enjoying a lifestyle. It reminds me of trends in the fashion world, always pushing visual boundaries and elevating everyday experiences.

Should I use 30 or 40 oil for 150,000 kilometers?

A car with 150,000 kilometers should consider increasing the oil viscosity and can switch to 40 oil, but it depends on the specific situation. Here are the relevant details: 1. Engine oil: Engine oil is a crucial component for a car's driving power, comparable to human blood. 40 oil has higher viscosity and is thicker than 30 oil. 30 oil is thinner with lower viscosity, which may not effectively adhere to components for lubrication and can also lead to increased fuel consumption. 2. Different scenarios: If a car starts consuming more fuel after reaching 150,000 kilometers, car owners should check if it's due to the oil. If so, switching to 40 oil is advisable. However, if there is no oil burning issue, it may not be necessary to change.
