The DS in Brief
It was voted the “Best Car of the 20th Century” and the “Product of the Century,” outshining even the Boeing 747, Apple Macintosh, the transistor, the ballpoint pen, and the lunar landing craft! It has garnered countless design and safety awards and is often dubbed a “legend on wheels,” a “superlative cult object,” a “design icon,” and “the car that reinvented the automobile.” All these accolades are rightfully earned by none other than the Citroën DS, whose name means “goddess” in French and which has appeared in numerous music videos, sci-fi films, including F. Coppola’s latest film, Megalopolis.
