Citroën Osée

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Citroën Osée is a concept car designed by Sergio Pininfarina in 2001. The V6 3liter engine is mounted in the rear of the car, providing the vehicle with 194 horsepower, with a maximum torque of 267 Nm. This vehicle has the driver seated in the middle with 2 passengers on either side and slightly back from the driver's seat. Pininfarina was inspired for this design by the French made Matra Bagheera from the early nineteen seventies. One of the particularly unusual details about this car is the F16 style cockpit door. The conventional two doors, windscreen and the better part of the roof found on an average car, have been transformed into one singular opening canopy. Another feature is the complete lack of driving mirrors, there is an LCD screen behind the steering wheel which shows the driver a rear view from the vehicle.
