Over the years there have been many special editions of Citroen DS models, and we liked all of them. The latest one, though, is different. You have to be of a specific gender – or sexual orientation – to like it. This is a pink version of the DS3 hatchbacks, featuring exclusive exterior and interior appointments and lots more kit than the standard car.

There are two Citroen DS3 Pink Editions in fact, the DS3 DStyle Pink & DSport Pink. They both feature a fuchsia pink roof, door mirrors and wheel centre caps, as well as a fuchsia dashboard and a colour coded gear lever knob on the inside. Available body colors include Polar White or Perla Nera Black.

The DS3 DStyle, meanwhile, comes with 16-inch ‘Ashera’ Black or White alloy wheels – to match the exterior color – and HiFi System upgrade with additional speakers, while the DSport gets 17-inch ‘Bellone’ Black or White alloys, plus the addition of a ‘City Signature’ pack, which includes automatic headlights and wipers, rear parking sensors, heated and electric folding door mirrors and a front central armrest.

The pink duo also differ in terms of powertrains. The DStyle comes with either a VTi 120 petrol engine or an e-HDi 90 Airdream diesel, while the DSport can be had with the THP 155 petrol or an e-HDi 115 Airdream diesel. A six-speed manual is the standard box.

Fuel consumption, CO2 ratings, and prices of the Citroen DS3 Pink Editions are as follows:
