The Citroën CX is a mid-size executive car produced by the French manufacturer Citroën from 1974 to 1991. It was designed by Italian designer Marcello Gandini, known for his work on the Lamborghini Miura and Countach. The CX's aerodynamic design, featuring a drag coefficient of just 0.36, was groundbreaking for its time and helped to set a new standard for automotive styling. At its launch, the CX was praised for its innovative features, including an advanced suspension system that provided a remarkably comfortable ride, a unique approach to interior design that prioritized space and functionality, and a range of powerful and efficient engines. Notably, the CX was offered in a variety of body styles, including a four-door saloon, a five-door estate, and a three-door hatchback, catering to a diverse range of customer needs.

Although the CX’s production ran for 17 years, the 1988-1991 model years mark the final evolution of the iconic model. While still retaining its core design language, these later models featured updated front and rear styling elements, including revised grille designs, new headlights, and taillights. The interior received a refresh as well, with new upholstery options and improved dashboard ergonomics. Under the hood, the CX continued to offer a selection of powerful and fuel-efficient petrol and diesel engines, including the robust 2.5l diesel. This period of production represented a time of refinement for the CX, with a focus on addressing minor flaws identified in earlier versions and offering a seamless driving experience. The CX remains a highly sought-after classic car, revered for its timeless design, advanced engineering, and comfortable driving experience.
