• Would you not lose the essence of a DS by sticking batteries in it? According to Wikipedia they only weigh 1300kg which by modern standards is light. I'd imagine they are quite fun to hustle along a wide A road with the body rolling about but the wheels staying where they should because of the suspension. Also the puggy engine would be part of the fun as you roll along puffing on a Disque Bleu, half cut from the carafe of wine you shared over lunch.
