The Citroën GS and GSA were compact cars produced by the French automaker Citroën between 1970 and 1986. They were known for their innovative design, featuring a distinctive wedge shape, front-wheel drive, and a hydropneumatic suspension system. The GS, launched in 1970, was a revolutionary car for its time, winning the European Car of the Year award in 1971. It featured a sleek, aerodynamic body, a spacious interior, and a powerful yet fuel-efficient engine. The GS also introduced several innovative features, including a unique "floating" dashboard that was hinged at the bottom and tilted forward to allow easier access to the controls.
In 1980, the GS was replaced by the slightly larger and more refined GSA. The GSA retained many of the GS's design elements, but featured a redesigned front end, larger headlights, and a more spacious interior. The GSA also introduced a new diesel engine option, making it a more economical choice for many buyers. Despite its success, the GS and GSA were discontinued by Citroën in 1986, facing increasing competition from newer and more modern cars. While their production may have ceased, the Citroen GS and GSA remain iconic vehicles in automotive history, remembered for their unique design, innovative features, and comfortable driving experience. Their impact on the automotive landscape is evident in the influence they exerted on other car manufacturers, inspiring new designs and technologies that continue to shape the industry today.
