The Citroën Xsara is a compact car that was produced by the French automaker Citroën from 1997 to 2010. It was introduced as a replacement for the Citroën ZX and was initially offered in three-door hatchback, five-door hatchback, and estate body styles. The Xsara was a major success for Citroën, winning the prestigious European Car of the Year award in 1998. The Xsara's success was largely due to its innovative design, its spacious interior, and its comfortable ride. It also came with a variety of engine options, including petrol and diesel units, providing buyers with a choice of performance and fuel economy. The Xsara was also well-equipped, with features such as power steering, electric windows, and central locking becoming standard across the range. The Xsara's success continued into the late 1990s and early 2000s, with the model receiving several updates and facelifts. These updates included new engines, improved styling, and updated interiors.

The Xsara was also offered in a variety of trim levels, from the basic 'SX' to the sporty 'VTS' and the luxury-oriented 'Exclusive.' The VTS model was particularly popular, thanks to its powerful engine and its sporty handling. In addition to the standard hatchback models, a pickup truck variant, called the Xsara Picasso, was also introduced in 2001. The Picasso was a unique car, combining the practicality of a van with the comfort and style of a hatchback. The Xsara was a popular car in many markets around the world, including Europe, Asia, and South America. It was praised by both critics and consumers for its stylish design, its comfortable interior, and its good value for money. The Xsara was discontinued in 2010, being replaced by the Citroën C4, but it remains a popular used car and is a testament to Citroën's ability to design and build cars that are both stylish and practical.
