The Citroën 2CV is set to make a comeback as a retro-inspired city car, as exclusively revealed by Autocar, Classic & Sports Car’s fellow Haymarket title.
Despite previous refusals, the firm has possibly been tempted to reconsider reinventing the classic model by the recent and very well-received reintroduction of the Renault 5.
The project is in its very early stages, a senior source confirmed.
Of course, this wouldn’t be the first time the marque has revived a classic nameplate, following the launch of the Citroën Ami in 2020.
