The Citroën GS and GSA were a series of compact cars produced by the French automaker Citroën from 1970 to 1986. The GS was launched in 1970 and was a significant departure from the company's previous models, featuring a sleek, aerodynamic design and a hydropneumatic suspension system. At launch, the GS was lauded for its innovative design and handling qualities, winning the European Car of the Year award in 1971. Key features of the GS included a revolutionary hydropneumatic suspension, which provided a remarkably comfortable ride and excellent handling, a compact and lightweight design, and a fuel-efficient 1.0-liter or 1.2-liter engine. This combination made the GS one of the most popular cars in Europe during the 1970s.
The GSA, introduced in 1979, was essentially a facelift of the GS, featuring a more angular front end, a larger grille, and a new rear fascia. The GSA also incorporated a number of improvements, including a more powerful engine, a larger interior space, and various safety upgrades. The GSA continued to be a popular and successful car, especially in Europe. However, by the early 1980s, the GS and GSA were facing stiff competition from the growing number of Japanese compact cars. Despite this, the GS and GSA remained in production until 1986, with a total of 1.8 million cars produced. The models helped to solidify Citroen's reputation for innovation and design, marking a significant chapter in the history of French automobile manufacturing.
