Peugeots, Renaults, and countless Citroëns descended on the Big Apple for an interesting reason.

Though the Tour hasn't officially confirmed the charming story, it's headcannon for many French car fans.

The country that invented the word sabotage might be the all-time best at it.

When it comes to French supercars, we naturally think of Bugatti. But are there others? Here are six forgotten French supercars that you may not know.

If this looks to you like an SUV, well, what can we say? Citroen says this is the world's smallest SUV, and who are we to argue? What it is is a funky city car with off-road overtones, which makes it a fun, funky glorified cart. But would it sell in the US?

The Citroen BX 4TC was an unusual late-entry Group B rally car. And after its unsuccessful performance, Citroen tried to crush all the race and homologation cars out of existence. But a few survived--and now, this Evolution race car survivor could be yours.

There are plenty of options for car manufacturers in America. We have US-based options like Ford, Dodge, and Chevrolet, and foreign options like Nissan, BMW, Audi, and so many more. In all of the diversity, there are even newer manufacturers rising in popularity like Tesla and Kia, so it is easy to forget that there …

It's not a car, but the electric Citroen Ami quadricycle--which is sort of the European equivalent of a low-speed vehicle--is coming to the US in limited quantities. But you'll have to rent it, rather than actually buy it.

French cars are often known for being a bit idiosyncratic. The 1986 Citroen CX starring in Doug DeMuro's latest video is a good example of this.

There’s a lot of speculation as to what will happen to the Chrysler brand now that the Stellantis merger is complete. The brand is down to almost no models which, you know, doesn’t keep you in business for very long. But there is a wave of new models chugging out from the French side of …

With the approval by shareholders today of the joining of Fiat Chrysler and Groupe PSA, the merger is upon us. The nuts and bolts of the union should be wrapped up before spring. But with it comes the fact that there are now too many brands in what will be called Stellantis. That means the …

Stellantis is the name of the merged Fiat Chrysler and Groupe PSA. It is expected to be merged and running by the end of next month according to auto scribes this week. So we can expect that many models will hit the auto graveyard. And also new models will magically appear as Citroen, Peugeot, and …

‘Innovative’ is a term often thrown around classic Citroens. In the 50s, for example, the DS wowed onlookers with front disc brakes and self-leveling hydropneumatic suspension. The later SM took the latter to new heights (pun intended) and introduced features like rain-sensing wipers and hydraulically-assisted steering. But before those came the minimalist Citroen 2CV, explicitly …

As far back as May of 2014, Sergio Marchionne released one of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles’ five-year plans. In it, there was a sports coupe that was slotted to come in smaller than the Challenger. Rumors started flying that the new Dodge offering would inherit the old Plymouth Barracuda nameplate from muscle cars of years gone …

Because it hasn’t had a US presence for some time, it’s easy to overlook Citroen’s cars. However, the French automaker has an extensive history of innovation. The Traction Avant, for example, was the first mainstream car to feature front-wheel drive, 4-wheel independent suspension, and unibody construction. The later 2CV, which is sort of like France’s …

Ground-breaking engineering isn’t only found on pricey supercars like the McLaren F1. It’s more impressive when cars everyone can afford have innovative features. And French automaker Citroen knows something about that. Its iconic 2CV remains a beloved people’s champion, and the 1955 DS is still an impressively-advanced luxury car. But, as Jay Leno explains, before …

The features list tends to define what a luxury car is these days. And while classic luxury cars arguably have more style, they can’t necessarily compete when it comes to bells and whistles. There is one, though, that can. Today, self-leveling suspension and adjusting headlights are available in many high-end vehicles. The Citroen DS had …

Alfa Romeo announced celebrations planned to mark the manufacturer’s 110th birthday. The celebrations will continue through the end of Sunday in Italy. But, here in the USA, the Alfa Romeo brand is hardly noticed, and certainly not celebrated in any major way. In fact, Alfa Romeo has been struggling to get its feet under the brand since it came back …

Movies have created quite a few automotive icons. The Fast and Furious films have enshrined several. But it’s not only live-action movies that have star cars. For instance, a souped-up classic Fiat 500 is the vehicle of choice for the eponymous protagonist of the Lupin the Third anime. One of the early Lupin movies, The …

Right out of the gate let’s say that the Citröen Ami is not like a Smart car. That’s about the closest thing to the Ami we’ve had in the US. We wouldn’t say it’s “basic” so much as it is a different mindset. We say that because the top speed is only 28 mph, and …
