Three French cars that translate to American tastes almost the Paris Motor Show in 2016.
We had the opposite reaction to the rest of the cars on this list Let's start with the Citroën C3, which is related to the DS3 and also the Peugeot 208 Part of its appeal is the style car concept, although the above photo is a production car C3 can be customized in a bunch of exterior colors and configurations, including the raised door panels and roof contrasting Mini-like Discover wheels, which are unlike anything we have seen nerds Car will remember the Saturn Ion -spoke four wheels These are a better grip on the inner square theme is a wonderful and fascinating combination of textures, materials and patterns Even the pull straps of the door and the vents on the dashboard There are compelling looks more upscale inside the DS models in a pioneering manner is reminiscent of the BMW i3 style is more distinctive than before beautiful, but it seems as difficult and even robust Give this hatch the CUV treatment with a little paint the lower body and contrast a slight recovery and we th ink to fly urban utility sales as the Kia Soul and Honda HR- V.
The 5008 doesn t need to adopt a sport utility vehicle arises because it is already positioned as a cross and people-mover small three lines are hot right now, and automakers are scrambling to produce vehicles for a segment who used to get shrugs consider the upcoming long-wheelbase VW Tiguan as an example of space, in the third line of the 5008, like anything else of this size is tight as to be almost useless, but the seats fold flat to form a large cargo area real centerpiece is the center console, which is studded with flashy finishing metal stopper that control the infotainment modes and access control functions climate compressed central screen style They're beautiful to look at and a pleasure to use a small flat-bottomed wheel is located entirely below the set top group but the thin gauge, so there is no obstacle fantastic textured fabric is stretched over part of the dashboard as an accent the front seats are comfortable surprisingly, support and well bolstere of Outside it's a distinctive front fascia and brightwork enough to put on the same level before the style utilities like the Range Rover Evoque.

Don t actually hold your breath for French cars in the United States.
The takeaway here is that modern French cars in the flesh, aren t quite bizarre things we were ready to dismiss out of hand as unfit for Americans Although it would take a test to see if they really go to Muster, C3, 5008, and from Alaska to hold a thorough examination Don t hold your breath in person for them to go to America, but if you have a chance to rent a vacation European special attention.
