well sorry!
Anyway. The PRRRREEEEEEEESAAAAAAAAN will come in a variety of trims Including a convertible option. This…vehicle, is capable of astonishing fuel economy and brisk performance that will not cost $40000 or $30000 or even $20000 the …PRESAN will start at $9990!
We decided that to make life easy for us at DSD that the individual trims would have titles relating to famous cities of the car designed for that region.
The first trim that we have for you is the Osaka
Styled by coach builders Licorne the PRESONT is made from an AHS mono chassis with a single stamped Mixed Alloy body, with the exception of the front spoiler the body is completely one steel piece with complex lines and billet alloy highlight featured through-out the French inspired body work. All trims are Transverse mounted FWD with the Osaka featuring a 660cc 4 cylinder engine coupled with DSD’s electric drive enhancement which boosts power thanks to a 80Nm electric engine that is powered by reclaimed energy from the brakes. This is all controlled by an onboard ecu that feeds in torque when needed and bleeds it away at higher RPMS, with the 660cc petrol engine and electric motor running together at max capacity we see a total of 65hp at 8000rpms, which may not seem like much and compared to the rest of the DSD range is about 350hp less than what you normally would find in our vehicles, the Puissant
[WOOHOOO HE GOT IT RIGHT]
is well balanced and very very light. The Osaka is available with a 5sp manual gearbox with viscous LSD which combined with the low weight of the car means a top speed of 200km/h is possible. All trims of the Puissant are fitted with Federal medium compound tyres and alloy rims.
Two seats are fitted as standard along with cd/Bluetooth stereo and the highest grade safety equipment we could fit into that french body shell. And it comes in a convertible model!
The next trim is the Monaco.
The Monaco is fitted with a 1799CC DOHC 30V v6 and is to be marketed more towards obviously the European market but also the Australasian and America’s.
The v6 is beautifully balanced and very tune-able, featuring DFI and 95oct fuel this little motor produces 120hp/168Nm and revs to 8000Rpm and straight thru mufflers enhance the already throaty intake bellow. Behind the engine is a 6sp manual gearbox/viscous combo and will allow the Monaco to race to 100km/h in just 7.4seconds and a top speed of 240km/h. This trim features the exact same interior as the Osaka but traction control and launch control are now standard.the Monaco retails for just over $12000.
Finally we come to the Aubagne trim.
Only available in Western Europe and Dubai, the Aubagne is the ducks nuts!
Featuring a a larger displacement 2202cc 220hp naturally aspirated v6, with throttle per cylinder technology and long tube exhausts manifolds flowing into a dual stainless steel exhaust system.
The sound this car makes is unlike anything DSD has made before. Behind this power plant we find a 6sp manual gearbox with a viscous LSD that along with larger diameter tyre propels the car to 100km/h in just 5.6second and a top speed of just under 300km/h. A full underbody tray and air scoops for the brakes are fitted as standard equipment on this trim only. Inside we find two Deer leather seats from the Saratoga and the usual CD/Bluetooth radio system. This is also the only trim to feature adaptive dampers to keep the car flat and slightly oversteery. Expect a retail price of $17500
