There's more good than bad Over the past year, I’ve tested a handful of “affordable” EVs — which are, in a relative sense, priced lower than the national average of around $50,000. Depending on who you talk to, options below $40,000 look genuinely…
I’m sure the startup REO Trucks is going to face a lot of challenges. It’s a rather new concept for an “analog” truck, but I can see a number of different ways the fledgling company could really communicate its brand…

Citroen has always been the carmaker most willing to try something nobody else would. Andre Citroen, an engineer who made his fortune with chevron-shaped gears, founded the company in 1919, and its double-chevron badge has since appeared on some of the most original cars ever built: the front-drive, unit-bodied Traction Avant of 1934, the umbrella-on-wheels 2CV of 1948, the otherworldly DS of 1955 with its hydropneumatic suspension, and the SM, which borrowed a Maserati V6. For decades a Citroen was the car that made other cars look ordinary.
Michelin owned Citroen through its golden age, and financial trouble led to a takeover by Peugeot in 1976, forming PSA. The quirky streak survived in the CX, the BX, the XM and the C6, while mainstream cars such as the Saxo, Xsara and C4 paid the bills. Citroen left the United States in 1974. The hydropneumatic system was eventually retired in favor of Advanced Comfort suspension, which uses hydraulic stops to smooth bumps, and padded seats that put softness back at the heart of the brand.
Now part of Stellantis, Citroen positions itself as a value-focused brand built around comfort, with a range that includes the C3, the C3 Aircross, the C4, the C5 Aircross, the Ami microcar and a large van business, plus India-specific models such as the Basalt. A modern take on the 2CV has been shown as an affordable electric concept. Coverage tracks launches, concepts, Stellantis strategy, recalls, sales results and the ongoing debate about whether Citroen can still be weird enough.
The most inventive French brand: Traction Avant, 2CV, DS and hydropneumatic magic, now a comfort-first, value-minded Stellantis label with C3 and C5 Aircross.
