This is an interesting twist just as the rest of the world is switching to smaller cars and the premium brands seem to be struggling a bit in the current economy... however, I am very happy to hear this. I have missed that there really hasn't been a premium automaker from France recently. I think this is great news. Now if we could only have Citroen back in the U.S. I'd love to have some foreign options beyond German and Asian automobiles.

I think Citroen make a bunch of really interesting cars. The majority of them are great looking too, I just don't want to own one. A new DS, Diane and 2CV would be great though.

good idea, but they still should consider buying volvo if they're trying to enter the premium market.

Hey, Im an American so we don't get Citroens, and I'm just wondering, what kind of car is it? Does it run more with the... Toyotas/Hondas or the Mercedes/Jaguars? Whats Peugeot for that matter?

citroen, peugeot and renault are the 3 french automakers... all of them run more with hondas and toyotas or, seats, skodas, and fiats (other makers that also don't export to the states). but, i'd rather buy any one of these, than a french car! they really are comfortable, but they lack soul, dynamics... it's just 4 wheels, an engine and a couch inside! but that's me...

yeahh citroen and peugoet and renault are the 3 french brands, some of their cars are nice but they are usually cramped (but have nice seats) but big reliability problems.

citroen makes cool car, but if they are going to revise an old cars name they atleast need to make it look good like other brands have done becuase personally i dont think this concept cuts it.

Oh boy that's a French way of doing things - the market crisis appears so every automaker buries it's proverbial head in the sand and makes smaller, more efficient cars, so Citr?en turns around and decides to take their focus off small cars! God bless the French.. =)
