Buy Citroën CX A legacy of audacity

Revisit the saga of the CX, which forever changed French automotive heritage.

Between 1974 and 1991, the Citroën CX brilliantly dominated the top-of-the-range segment of the French brand. The task was far from easy, however, as it was a successor to the legendary DS, amidst multiple crises. It's worth noting this remarkable fact: the CX was not originally designed to occupy the top-of-the-range niche. Yet, it held its own without fail and is today one of the most significant models in Citroën's history.

From its beginnings in 1968 to the end of its production in 1991, revisit, through these pages richly illustrated with more than 350 photographs and archive documents, the incredible saga of the CX and a series of events that shook up the French, if not European, and even international automotive landscape. The CX has always known how to adapt to circumstances, that is its achievement: development of a complete and diversified range, increase in power... Like its road handling, it has remained serene, imperial despite the bends, winds and storms.
