CT Analytics | The most popular French classic cars

From practical everyday cars like the Citroën 2CV and the Renault Twingo to elegant coupés like the Citroën SM and the Peugeot 406 to innovative saloons like the Renault 16 and the Citroën DS – there is something for everyone. French automotive history is as diverse as the country itself.

These ten classic cars from France were searched for most frequently on Classic Trader.

“La Déesse” (the Goddess) in 1st place – The Citroën DS was a milestone in automobile construction and design and is by far the most sought-after French model. In 2nd place, a sensation when it was presented in 1970, is the Citroën SM. Technically not quite straightforward, but powerful thanks to the Maserati engine. Citroën’s triple victory is completed by the 2CV. Compact, practical, durable – the deux chevaux has had a firm place in the French street scene for decades and lands in 3rd place in the Classic Trader search.
