Discover the history and available models of Citroën cars in the Forza Horizon series. Learn about their performance and unique features to enhance your driving experience.
Alright, let's talk about Citroën in the Forza universe! While they might not be the first brand that springs to mind for pure speed, these French automotive icons have a rich history and some seriously cool cars that have made their way into the games. Think of them as the quirky, stylish cousins in the automotive family tree. Citroën's story starts with André Citroën, who was inspired by Henry Ford's assembly line. Back in 1919, they rolled out their first car, the Type A, using that very method. They even had taxis in Paris by 1921 and offered the 5HP model to the public in a single, rather cheerful, lemon yellow color in 1922. That same year, they pulled off an impressive feat: crossing the Sahara Desert! Later, in 1934, they introduced the world's first mass-produced front-wheel-drive car, the Traction Avant, and from 1949 to 1990, they produced the legendary 2CV, a car designed to bring the working class into the automotive age with its affordability and go-anywhere capability. They've continued to produce eye-catching models, like the new C3. In the Forza games, Citroën has been around since _Forza Motorsport 3_ and has appeared in most main titles since, including _Forza Motorsport 5_, _Forza Motorsport 7_ (thanks to the Totino's Car Pack), and even made its debut in _[Forza Horizon 4](https://forza.fandom.com/wiki/Forza_Horizon_4100% Human-Written.
