The DS No. 8 (styled DS N°8) is an battery electric crossover SUV by DS Automobiles unveiled on 12 December 2024, and production commenced in Melfi, Italy in April 2025.
N°8 pronounced 'number eight' (or 'numéro huit' in French), is the first model to feature the brand's new model naming strategy. According to DS Automobiles, the number 8 "is associated with balance and serenity, which combine to form a harmonious whole". It features the No8 badge on the rear fascia, next to the 'DS Automobiles' emblem, in a new 'separated branding' arrangement which the brand says, will ensure "a clear division between the brand and the model".
