The Attractions
From its very beginnings, Citroën has distinguished itself by being highly innovative, employing cutting-edge designers and producing high-tech cars, and the Traction Avant perfectly embodies the brand's values. While employing technical solutions already known and adopted previously by other cars, the Traction Avant brought together in a single car many features that were not yet widespread, such as front-wheel drive, independent all-wheel suspension and monocoque construction. These innovations became widespread thanks to this highly successful Citroën, which also became famous for its unmistakable harmonious and elegant lines.
This very solid and correct example produced in the immediate post-war period looks beautiful and we have been assured that it is efficient and pleasant to drive. Registered in Italy, it has belonged to its current owner since 2008. This splendid Traction Avant allows us to appreciate the great charm of these cars, which were among the most innovative and revolutionary ever.IMG_5975.jpeg3 MB
