The 1993-1998 Citroen Xantia was a mid-size family car that represented a significant leap forward for the French automaker. Introduced in 1993, the Xantia replaced the BX and aimed to offer a blend of comfort, practicality, and innovative technology. It was renowned for its hydropneumatic suspension system, which provided an unparalleled level of ride comfort and handling. The Xantia also featured a distinctive design, characterized by its rounded bodywork and large, wraparound headlights. Inside, the Xantia offered a spacious and well-appointed cabin with a focus on driver ergonomics. The model range included a variety of engine options, from economical petrol and diesel units to a more powerful 3.0-liter V6. Safety was also a key priority, with the Xantia offering features such as ABS and driver airbags.

The Xantia's hydropneumatic suspension was one of its most defining characteristics. This advanced system used a combination of hydraulic fluid and nitrogen gas to create a self-leveling suspension that could adapt to different road conditions and payloads. The result was a remarkably smooth and comfortable ride, even on rough surfaces. The Xantia's suspension also provided excellent handling and stability, making it a pleasure to drive. Despite its technical sophistication, the Xantia proved to be a reliable and durable car, with many examples still on the road today.
