The Citroën Xsara is a compact car produced by the French automaker Citroën from 1997 to 2010. Its name is derived from the Persian word "Xšaθra," meaning "domain" or "power," reflecting the car's ambition to be a strong contender in the competitive compact car market. The Xsara was available in various body styles, including a three-door hatchback, a five-door hatchback, a station wagon (Xsara Break), and a coupé. The Xsara was launched in 1997 as a replacement for the Citroën ZX, and it was praised for its stylish design, spacious interior, and comfortable ride. It quickly became a popular choice in Europe and other international markets.

The Xsara was known for its innovative features, including a hydraulic suspension system on certain models that provided a smooth and comfortable ride, and an advanced electronic stability program (ESP) that enhanced safety. The car offered a range of petrol and diesel engines, catering to various driving needs and preferences. It was also available with a variety of trim levels, ranging from basic to luxurious. The Xsara was a successful model for Citroën, winning several awards and selling over 2.5 million units globally. Despite its success, the Xsara was ultimately replaced by the Citroën C4 in 2004. However, it remained in production for another six years, primarily in emerging markets, until its final discontinuation in 2010.
