Citroën Passenger Cars

Citroën is a historic French automobile manufacturer founded in 1919 by André Citroën. The brand is renowned for revolutionizing the automotive industry with the Traction Avant, the world's first mass-produced front-wheel-drive car, and the iconic 2CV. Throughout its history, Citroën became synonymous with comfort and unconventional engineering, most notably through its advanced hydropneumatic self-levelling suspension systems.

Today, Citroën's manufacturing is geographically diverse. While it maintains a strong presence in France (at sites like Poissy and Rennes), production has expanded globally to meet market demands. For example, the C4 and ë-C4 models are produced in Madrid, Spain, while other models like the C3 are manufactured in locations ranging from Slovakia to India and Brazil. This global footprint allows the brand to compete in various regional markets while maintaining its French design identity.

Since 2021, Citroën has been a key brand under Stellantis N.V., a global automotive giant formed by the merger of PSA Group and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA). This ownership places Citroën in a massive portfolio alongside brands like Peugeot, Fiat, and Jeep. The brand currently focuses on electrification and accessible mobility, as seen with the ë-C4 and the Ami quadricycle, while remaining headquartered in the Paris region.
