Car  Citroën 11CV

Citroen Traction Avant is a French passenger car from the interwar period, World War II and the post-war period. The first copies of this car appeared in 1934, and serial production continued intermittently in the years 1934-1957. Approximately 760,000 cars of this type were produced in its course. Citroen Traction Avant - depending on the version - was powered by a single engine with a capacity of 1.3 to 2.9 liters.

The Citroen Traction Avant was presented for the first time at the Paris Motor Show in 1934. At that time, it was characterized by many innovative technical solutions: front-wheel drive, independent wheel suspension, hydraulic brakes on all wheels or a self-supporting body. It also had - for those times - an innovative exterior design. The car was characterized by great road characteristics and very good road holding, even when cornering. Due to the engine used, three main versions of the Citroen Traction Avant appeared: 7CV (1.3-liter engine), 11CV (1.9-liter engine) and 15CV (2.9-liter engine). At the outbreak of World War II, many of these cars were mobilized and served as staff cars for officers - first French and after 1940 - German armed forces throughout World War II.
