## The Citroen AX: A Compact French Icon of the 1990s
The Citroen AX, a compact hatchback introduced in 1986, was a testament to Citroen's dedication to innovative design and affordability. Designed by the legendary Italian designer Marcello Gandini, the AX stood out with its distinctive wedge-shaped profile and sleek lines. Its aerodynamic shape, aided by a low drag coefficient, contributed to impressive fuel efficiency, a crucial factor in a time of increasing fuel prices. The AX was available in various trim levels, catering to a wide range of budgets and needs. Options included the base model, the more luxurious "GTI" and "Sport" variants, and even the fuel-sipping "Evasion" model.
Despite its compact size, the AX never compromised on comfort and practicality. While not spacious by today's standards, its interior was thoughtfully designed with ergonomically placed controls and ample headroom. The AX further impressed with its versatility, boasting a spacious boot that could be further expanded by folding down the rear seats. The 1990 model year, specifically targeted by the service repair workshop manual, saw notable improvements, with the introduction of new engine options, enhanced safety features, and a refinement of the already praised driving experience. Although ultimately discontinued in 1998, the Citroen AX left a lasting impact on the automotive landscape, establishing itself as a popular and reliable city car that offered a unique blend of practicality, comfort, and style.
