Is the Citroen DS6 on its way after all?

The Citroen Numero 9 Concept (pictured) perhaps previews the new DS6

There have been very strong hints from Citroen for some time that the end of the Citroen C6 wasn’t the end of bigger Citroens, even if big Citroens have a history of only really selling well in France. That always made sense because Citroen now has a new market that appreciates bigger cars, particularly bigger cars that have smaller engines, and that’s China.

We thought a DS6 was on its way in 2012 when  Citrone revealed a teaser photo on its Facebook page. But that turned out to be the Numero 9 Concept – although that could still point the way to the styling of a DS6.

Now, Autobild are reporting that Citroen’s plans for the DS6 are properly formed and the new DS6 will arrive in 2015 as a luxury take on the DS range,

They say the DS6 will be around 5 metres long, come with a raft of luxury equipment and be powered by a range of 4-cylinder turbo petrol and diesel engines with up to 240bhp. Which fits very well with a brief for a luxury Citroen aimed primarily at China.

More when we get it.
