What is the Citroën model labeled with 'xaara'?
2 Answers
There are two types of Citroën cars with 'xaara' labeled on the right side of the rear: one is the Xsara, and the other is the Picasso. Here is some related information about Citroën: 1. Introduction one: Citroën is the third largest automobile manufacturing company in France, founded in 1919 and headquartered in Paris, France. 2. Introduction two: In 1976, the Peugeot Group purchased 89.5% of Citroën's shares and established the PSA holding company to merge Citroën and Peugeot. In 1991, Citroën and China's Dongfeng Motor Corporation jointly established the Dongfeng Peugeot Citroën Automobile Company, mainly producing passenger cars and light trucks.
I've driven that car before. The Citroën Xsara was actually a classic compact sedan launched by Citroën in the late 1990s. It first debuted in 1997 and was produced until 2006, available in both sedan and station wagon versions. There was also a very popular variant called the Xsara Picasso, a compact MPV focused on family practicality and optimized interior space. The driving experience was quite comfortable, with light steering, making it suitable for city commuting and short trips. While the handling wasn’t high-performance, the soft suspension tuning made it less bumpy on rough roads. However, the drawbacks were also quite obvious—older cars tend to have minor issues, like occasional electrical system quirks. I think this model has a simple and timeless design, with smooth, appealing lines, making it one of Citroën’s representative works. It’s still common in the used car market today, but it’s important to check the maintenance records and mileage, as parts naturally wear out after more than 20 years on the road.
