There have been a number of concept cars by the French car manufacturer Citroën, produced to show future ideas and forthcoming models at international motor shows.

  • Citroën Traction Avant 22 CV (1934), a 3.8-litre V8 version displayed at the Paris Motor Show in 1934 but never put into production
  • Citroën G Van (1948), a prototype van
  • Citroën Prototype C, a range of prototypes from 1955 to 1956, abandoned in favor of the Citroën Ami 6
  • Citroën C60 Project (1960s), a prototype design for a model to sit between the 2CV and the DS, not formally a concept car; abandoned in favor of Project F
  • Citroën Project F/Project AP (1963-1967), prototype design for a mid-range model to sit between the 2CV and the DS; the project's failure bankrupted Citroën and led to the merger with Peugeot in 1974
  • Citroën Project G (1960s), developed from Project F, became the Citroën GS
  • Citroën Mini-Zup (1972) - a two-seater city car powered by the 2CV 602cc engine[1]
  • Citroën GS Camargue (1972)
  • Citroën 2CV Pop (1973), the Pop, or Super, was the study for a luxurious version of the 2CV.[2] The car featured a special bonnet based on the Traction Avant, and the engine was the four-cylinder engine of the GS
  • Citroën Buggy GS (1973)
  • Citroën Prototype Y prototype became the Citroën Visa
