The Citroën ZX, produced from 1991 to 1998, was a compact hatchback designed to be a practical and affordable car for the European market. It replaced the popular Citroën AX and offered an appealing combination of fuel efficiency, spacious interior, and innovative design features. Available in a range of body styles, including three-door and five-door hatchbacks, as well as a more practical estate version, the ZX was a versatile car capable of meeting the needs of a diverse clientele. One of its key strengths was its advanced hydropneumatic suspension, inherited from Citroën's larger models, which provided a comfortable and controlled ride for its occupants.
The ZX was offered with a wide range of petrol and diesel engines, ranging from the frugal 1.1-liter petrol to the more powerful 1.9-liter diesel. Despite its relatively small size, the ZX offered a surprisingly spacious interior, particularly in the rear, making it a suitable choice for families. The model also adopted a number of modern features for its time, including a driver airbag as standard on some models and optional safety features like ABS and central locking. Its sleek and aerodynamic design, combined with its practical nature and comfortable ride, made the ZX a popular choice in its segment. However, despite its initial success, the ZX faced stiff competition from other European manufacturers, and its sales declined towards the end of its production run. It was eventually replaced by the Citroën Xsara, which continued to build upon the ZX's strengths and offered a more modern and refined package.
