====2CV====
Citroën unveiled the [[Citroën 2CV]] or ''Deux Chevaux'' signifying two [[tax horsepower]] and initially only {{cvt|9|hp-metric|kW|1}}, at the [[Paris Salon]] in 1948. The car became a bestseller, achieving the designer's aim of providing rural [[French people]] with a motorized alternative to the [[horse]]. It was unusually inexpensive to purchase and, with its small two cylinder engine, inexpensive to run as well. The 2CV pioneered a very soft, interconnected suspension, but did not have the more complex [[Self-levelling suspension|self-levelling feature]]. This car remained in production, with only minor changes, until 1990 and was a common sight on French roads until recently; 9 million 2CV variants were produced in the period 1948–1990.<ref>John Reynolds.
