Citroen has revealed the interior of the DS High Rider concept - which was originally showcased at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show. In line with the cars distinctive exterior styling, DS High Riders cockpit exudes strength, dynamism and refinement, with the utmost care and precision applied to even the smallest details. The ergonomic design of the controls, the quality of the carefully selected materials and the prestigious atmosphere on board convey status, elegance and the promise of luxurious comfort. With a clear contrast between DS High Riders large panoramic windscreen and its dark-shaded roof lining, the cabin is an exclusive environment with an emphasis on sporting luxury - also evidenced by the extensive application of leather and chrome detailing.
The instrument panel, seats and door panels are all finished in a quality, full-grain leather with clearly defined over-stitching and a bracelet design on the seats. The DS initials are also subtly embossed into the leatherwork of the dashboard. Completing the dynamic ambience of the interior, chrome detailing is used around the dials, steering wheel, air vents, gear stick and the arch that connects the instrument panel to the console. Chrome DS inserts also feature, positioned just below the headrests on each of the front seats.
Mirroring the golden tone of the DS High Riders bodywork, the interior door panels are trimmed with a graduated grey to gold shading that required the careful application of specific varnishes to achieve the gilded, metallic look.
DS High Riders technology can be glimpsed in the controls mounted on the sculpted steering wheel, the colour screen in the centre console and the Hybrid badge just below the gear stick - which asserts the models ecologically sensitive drivetrain.
