Frankfurt 09, Citroën prototype

Found this this morning: a Citroën prototype. French idea of Luxury?
Source: Le Figaro - Automobile : Avec la Revolte, Citroën veut faire du luxe à la française(In French)

Petaled wheels?

With such headlights and chromed lipstick, it looks like a squinting whore.

The sliding roof and side skirt gives it a dune buggy's look from this angle.

The headrest makes the occupant look like the Flying Nun.

Mercedes reprend
son envol



EN IMAGES - Dans la droite ligne du mythique 300 SL portes papillon, la marque à l’étoile reprend l’initiative sur le haut de gamme sportif après l’expérience McLaren et prévoit une version tout électrique.




I'll take one of these, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

It looks great on the outside. That seat looks uncomfortable.

More pics today at
Citroën Hybrid Concept is Mildly Revolte-ing | Autopia | Wired.com
The article also explains that the inspiration was the "2CV"... Somehow, I didn't get this one!

Cintroen Revolt-e has a nice color and shape. With a battery and electric motors, perhaps it gives it more interior space?

Like the sliding cloth roof - very 2CVish.
