A small French thing not noted for speed.

Note that despite all evidence to the contrary it’s not a 2CV.

Dyane.

For a while when Citroën allowed it to be their only small car with a hatch to boost sales, but it backfired because not many people wanted a Dyane anyway. It’s technically a ‘better car’ than the 2CV, but it’s right in the uncanny valley between a utilitarian runabout (2CV) and a proper ‘modern’ small car.

Strictly speaking, it’s an Acadiane (yes, with an i. Don’t ask me)

Good catch, forgot about the name difference.

Yay! Dyane Acadiane! I saw one too the other day...all the way over here in Nova Scotia! First one I’ve seen in my life, as they were never sold here! It made my day! :D
