The DS No. 4 (stylized as DS N°4, pronounced as "number 4" and previously known as the DS 4) was unveiled on 3 February 2021. It is intended to replace the DS 4 which was discontinued in 2018. It is based on the PSA EMP2 platform of the PSA Group. The car is available in three versions: N°4 E-TENSE (100% electric), N°4 HYBRID, N°4 PLUG-IN-HYBRID.
Following the 2025 facelift it was renamed to the DS N°4.

It was designed in Paris, but is produced at Opel's plant in Rüsselsheim.[2]
In terms of powertrains, a E-TENSE hybrid version will be available, and in terms of petrol engines, it is equipped with the PureTech range with powers outputs of 130 hp, 180 hp, or 220 hp. It is available for sale from the fourth quarter of 2021.[3]
