We invite Sarah Rickard, fashion stylist, personal shopper and founder of Sarah Rickard Styles, to review the DS 4 and share her best tips from the journey.
The DS 4’s proximity keyless entry is a godsend. When I go back to the car, I always have a lot of luggage. DS 4 will recognize you from a distance and unlock it.

One of my favorite features of the DS 4 is the DS Matrix LED Vision projector headlights. It accurately senses its surroundings and adapts to its environment with 5 preset modes (City, Countryside, Highway, Severe Weather and Fog). Maintain high beams in all conditions without blinding other road users. One less thing to think about when driving home after a long day of shooting.

Our father was in the auto industry for 50 years (the only time he actually closed his shop was when Covid started), but his greatest achievement was that all four daughters It is the fact that I passed the driver’s license test for the first time.
My favorite thing about driving was playing the album from start to finishI was in college at work and during my first few years traveling and traveling around the country, I was listening to album after album. Now you can listen to podcasts without interruptions!
