Unbelievable that design-wise this 16 yo model would be one of the top ten best looking cars on the road today.

It wouldn't. Compare Chevrolet volt concept car with actual Chevrolet volt car.

Citroen and in general French concept designs was always on top of the line. Citroen GT!

The Citroen SM, which was essentially a concept that made it into production, is probably my favourite car design of all time.

Citroën missed the transition to electric. They're getting crushed by Renault.

are they? It's all the same company with the brand today just used for appealing to localized government funding (because we can just shutter that factory you have there!). In the small marketshare electric future these multiple brands will be useful to kill one by one without tarnishing the remaining brands too much.
