Those who fondly describe the Citroën 2CV talk about its quirky, minimalist design and remarkable efficiency. While its impressive engineering led to a unique suspension capable of traversing even the roughest French terrain, its massively underpowered engine and divisive looks made it always a controversial vehicle to behold. But the deux chevaux (French for Two Horses) highlights Citroën’s dedication to providing affordable, practical transportation with a touch of French flair. So how will this iconic utility vehicle fare alongside the much more luxurious and better preforming cars in the Haugland Collection? Join Alex and Amy Haugland as they explore the endearing features of the 2CV, showcasing its innovative engineering and timeless style in the studio and then out for a drive on Oregon country roads worthy of the French countryside to which the car belongs. Watch as they examine its cultural impact and versatility and rate the car, cementing its place in the Haugland Rank. Our 1976 Citroën 2CV is here for its turn in the spotlight on this week’s episode of Everyday to Exotic!
