For 2021, Citroën has announced the restyled versions of the C3 Aircross(B-segment) and C5 Aircross(C-segment). The actual launch of the D-segment C5 X (produced in China) will be implemented from fall 2021.

For 2022, the carmaker is planning the restyling of its Berlingo(N1-1 segment) and Jumper (N1-3 segment) utility vehicles.
The
Jumpy (N1-2 segment) is still too recent to facelifted.

In 2023, the Citroën C4 Aircross(C-segment) should be launched, which, as its name suggests, will be part of the range between the C3 Aircross and C5 Aircross. It will be a crossover based on the C4 sedan, somewhat on the model of the Peugeot 308 crossover to be launched in 2022.

The end of the year 2023 should mark the arrival of the new generation of the C3 (B-segment) and its electric version, on the new STLA Small platform that it should inaugurate two and a half years before the Peugeot 208. It will be the first time that the C3 will be available in a 100% electric version.

The Citroën C3 Aircross and Citroën C5 Aircross will be renewed in 2024 and 2025 respectively.

For the moment, no announcement concerning a model which would replace the small C1 (A-segment) removed from the range during the 2021 summer, while Peugeot will indeed offer a BEV which will replace the small 108 (A-segment).

The DS Product Plan for 2021-2026
The DS brand (Stellantis group) has communicated its product plan until 2026. Used to be the only Premium brand of the PSA group, DS has seen now other brands enter its market following the merger with FCA (Fiat-Chrysler), such as Alfa-Romeo or Lancia.

Alfa-Romeo is more oriented "sporty" (as BMW) while Lancia will target more luxury (as Mercedes). From 2024, all DS models that will go into production will be 100% electric.

The current renewal program is focused on the imminent launch (fall 2021) of the DS 4 which will be in the carmaker's range between the DS 3 Crossback(B-segment B) and the DS 7 Crossback(C-segment). This model will be available in a 100% electric version from 2024.

In 2022, the DS 7 Crossback(C-segment) will be facelifted, one year before the facelift of the DS 3 Crossback.

In 2023, the new STLA Medium platforms will appear, which will be launched by the new generations of the Peugeot 3008 and 5008. It is therefore on these platforms that the future DS 7 Crossback and DS 8 Crossback will be designed. These two top-of-the-range models will be launched in 2025 and 2026 respectively, with a 100% electric engine.

2026 should also see the renewal of the DS 3 Crossbackand the launch of a C-segment coupe SUV inspired by the Aero Sport Lounge concept car. A seven-seater SUV (code P95) is also under consideration. These three vehicles will adopt a 100% electric motorisation.
