The legendary SM Of DS Automobiles returns to the limelight with the project SM Tributea unique model created by the DS Design Studio Paris to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the brand, presented at the Chantilly Arts & Elegance. The project was born from the interaction with the community of enthusiasts, who in 2020, through the series of sketches #SM2020expressed the desire to retain the distinctive features of the original SM design.
