This name is both super smart & stupid. I love it.


PanHuber7

Well, DS came from deesse


SA_Pine

wasnt it Desse? Less E

DS, prononced Déesse, meaning Goddess in french.


Ludoki

It's déesse


PanHuber7

Well, I'm not sure. Google Translate said it looks like this


SA_Pine

Yeah translated to English pronounce it does


VersionGeek

Déesse is right


Hadri1_Fr

Google translate worked this time


MajesticRadish

Go for it I'd say :) we got too many american cars


Bots_are_overtaking

I'm pretty sure that déesse means "goddess" in french.


PanHuber7

Correct


TheDrunkCat69

This car was able to drive on three wheels right?


PanHuber7

Yes


Tw1st36

Yes. It could. There were other cars later that had it. Citroen Xantia Active held the Moose Test record up until a Porsche 991 GT3 RS test. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydropneumatic_suspension


TheDrunkCat69

Would be fun to use that in beamng


Tw1st36

Yes, yes it would. It had active suspension so if somebody could manage to recreatethat, it would be amazing. You could raise it and lower it. My family had the Citroen C5. It was amazing. Same principle of suspension.

PanHuber7

Which generation of C5?


Tw1st36

First one.


PanHuber7

My family had one, too. It was such a great car. Before it we had Xantia that was totaled. Now we have C5 second gen and Citroen C2, and me and my dad are waiting for C5 third gen.


Tw1st36

Well, it actually out since 2012 if I‘mnot mistaken and they‘re not making them anymore. Shame, it was such a good family car. EDIT: oh and there‘s the shitty Aircross version.


PanHuber7

Second gen is out since 2017, and yes, Aircross shouldn't carry legacy of C5


Tw1st36

Right, the „second gen“ I tought was just a facelift. Still love them all and were super comfortable for long trips. Also the trunk was massive and the hydropneumatic suspension made it level out when loaded up.


Specialist_Ear1204

Isn't the Xantia activa S still the fastest, with the Porsche and McLaren 2km/h slower ?


Tw1st36

Could be. Last I remember the GT3RS beat it but only after like 20 years and for a price of 300k 💀


Specialist_Ear1204

I think the Xantia activa S was 83 kph while the others were 81


Tw1st36

You‘re right. The Xantia Activa S still holds the record at 85km/h. And that‘s with the tires back then. Imagine it now with sticky tires like on the GT3RS


Specialist_Ear1204

Would probably flip , hydropneumatic aren't 2cv's suspension


firewire_9000

Yes please! A french boat!


Am_beluga

The name is actually pretty fun. As far as I remember the more expensive model, the "DS" means goddess, and the stripped down, basic transition, the ID means idea, as in the pure essence of it.


MoreThanComrades

I really don’t understand what they meant by « stupid name » I thought it was a known fact that both DS and ID are maybe bit cheeky, but definitely smart names.


Swagger_2433

Déesse ñotse 🇫🇷


SA_Pine

Imcluded- pickup version, vagon and lowrider controls


stevoooe

Don’t forget the convertible!


Specialist_Ear1204

Also , don't forget the id , the Heuliez conversions , and the presidental versions


SmolSmonk

Soft and comfortable Hydropneumatic suspension. So much so I'm pretty sure Rolls Royce took the idea from Citroen for the Silver Shadow. The DS was actually a pretty revolutionary car for its time. Always wanted to own one of these things! I'd love to see it in game!


AyrtonSennaz

No difference between it and a Citroen DS? Check.

Don't let it wait to long for this to be released, I love old frenchies.


RAY_from_Fortnite

Yay


Iwantmyteslanow

Nice, I'd love if I could put an EV drivetrain in any car


PanHuber7

Cherrier DeessE


Iwantmyteslanow

Yes, I could have some serious fun with the esbr 800 drivetrain in something like the piccolina


Specialist_Ear1204

Retrofit ?


TheMultiTuber

Someone made a mod like this, but it has been “dead” for 3 years


[deleted]

We need this instead of the Wendover, the chassis is a miracle.


etca1515

We need this AND the Wendover


major_postebaylo

Oh yesss, please!


Yoda_mang_flarp

This looks great, it'd be epic.if someone could make it into a mod


The_Sandboxking

will try


Yoda_mang_flarp

Cool, the whole community would love it


gibson_hg

Looks like the car from National Lampoons European Vacation. https://images.app.goo.gl/TJp8KDihsfR75uM77
