What is the correct pronunciation anyway?

The Swedes always pronounced it Citroeng.

Can't understand wtf they spent so much time going on about the fuel economy - no mention of the engine or the DIRAVI steering!

I thought that the Masserati engine was the object of the exercise, sounds noisy enough to be fast :D Otherwise it was basically a CX.

Closer to the DS in structure and mechanicals - CX aapted the excellent steering system but lost the excellent steering headlights.
