In 1969, the

The ID19 became
the D Spécial and the ID20 became the D Super.
A new three dial
dashboard was fitted to all D series cars.

In
1970, as fitted to the DS BVH from the outset, a foot operated parking brake was fitted to the D Spécial and D
Super and the latter car could be supplied with an optional five speed
gearbox.
From 1971, the
roof was the same colour as the body.

In 1972, recessed
door handles were fitted to all D series cars.
Reversing
lamps were fitted as standard to the D Super and the D Spécial acquired
a new 98 bhp engine while the D Super had its power increased to 108
bhp. Both cars were fitted with a higher final drive.

In 1973, power
steering and chromed door handles and window winders became standard on
the D Super.
A
new model, the D Super 5 was launched, fitted with the 2 175 cm3 engine
from the DS21 together with a five speed gearbox.
The D Super lost
its five speed gearbox option.
