Donated by DS Automobiles and the Antoine de Saint Exupery Youth Foundation, the 100% electric DS 3 E-TENSE “The Little Prince” raised 75 euros at a gala night organized by the Gustave Roussy Foundation.
DS Automobiles and the Antoine de Saint Exupery Youth Foundation came together again for a very special event. Drawing its inspiration from the author’s magical world, the DS 3 E-Tense Antoine De Saint Exupery Collection pays tribute to “The Little Prince” while also showing that you don’t have to leave the world to change it. Donated to the Antoine de Saint Exupery Youth Foundation by DS Automobiles, the DS 3 E-Tense Collection Antoine De Saint Exupery was the result of a partnership between the two organizations in May 2024. At the exact time of this partnership, DS Automobiles introduced a special collection named after the author and pilot who passed away 80 years ago.
The DS 3 E-Tense Antoine De Saint Exupery Collection, which was put up for auction, was donated by the Antoine de Saint Exupery Youth Foundation to the Gustave Roussy Foundation in support of the campaign “Treating Childhood Cancer in the 21st Century”. The gala evening where the sale took place was held with the participation of Brigitte Macron, Health Minister Yannick Neuder, Paris and Ile-de-France Governor Marc Guillaume, DS Automobiles CEO Xavier Peugeot and Antoine de Saint Exupery Youth Foundation President Olivier d’Agay. All participants were asked to come together for the benefit of children with cancer.
DS Automobiles has also made a special contribution to this charity evening by adding a special event to the “DS Automobiles” section. The winner of the DS 3 E-Tense Antoine De Saint Exupery will have the unique opportunity to visit the DS DESIGN STUDIO, accompanied by DS Automobiles Design Director Thierry Metroz, and to personalize their vehicle together with the brand’s designers. In this way, the lucky owner will be able to visit the DS DESIGN STUDIO, get behind the genius of DS Automobiles designers and make their own vehicle even more inspiring, just like the writer and pilot Antoine de Saint Exupery, who left his mark on the first half of the 20th century.
