Citroën Prototype C
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Citroën Prototype C was a range of vehicles created by Citroën from 1955 to 1956 under the direction of André Lefèbvre. The idea was to produce a water drop-shaped, very lightweight vehicle, which would be more modern and smaller than the 2CV. One of the prototypes, the Citroën C-10 has survived and is still owned by Citroën.
The overall look of the vehicle is quite similar to the Messerschmitt bubble car. It is equipped with the same 425 cc engine as the 2CV.
The vehicle was also nicknamed Citroën Coccinelle (Beetle in French).
