== Description ==
The DS E-TENSE is an all-electric concept sports car built by DS Automobiles, Citroen's sub-unit. The car defines what the future of sports cars would look like. The E-TENSE is the successor of the Survolt.
The model was first conceived in 2016, as a competitor to Audi's R8 e-Tron. The car is built around a carbon-fiber monocoque chassis, above where the lithium-ion batteries lie. Two electric Siemens motors power the car, giving it 401 hp and 391 foot-pounds of torque, a top speed of 249 kmph (155 mph) and an electric range of 360 kilometers (223 miles) on a single charge.

The E-Tense appears as a low Class D car with the following rank statistics:
*Stock rank: 799 ()
* rank: 1213

=== Usage ===
The DS E-Tense has quick acceleration, responsive handling, and one of the best nitro efficiencies in the entire game, with average top speed being the only drawback. When upgraded, the E-Tense is an excellent option for Class D races. For beginner players, this car is dominant in most situations and, if driven well on the right track, can beat many higher-ranked cars. It is one of the easiest early-game cars to drive. It also has effectively unlimited fuel, with only a 2-minute cooldown that includes time spent loading and racing the last fuel used.
It can compete with the Chevrolet Camaro LT, Dodge Challenger 392 Hemi Scat Pack and Porsche 718 Cayman.
=== Multiplayer ===
The E-Tense is a very popular choice for multiplayer due to it being very easy to drive and having very good nitro efficiency. It can be competitive in Silver League and even in Gold league as its performance allows it to catch up to higher-ranked Class C and B cars on technical tracks and, if driven properly, can compete with the Acura NSX.
