Thursday 3rd October 1974

The Paris Motor Show premiered the Citroen CX 2000. Less revolutionary than its predecessor – the DS – the CX offered all of Citroën’s recent technical developments; a transversely mounted engine/gearbox assembly at the front, all-independent constant-height hydropneumatic suspension, power-operated brakes with front discs and double circuits, single wiper blade, concave rear window and a futuristic instrument panel. The CX is built as a 4-door, 5-seat saloon.
