Citroen 2CV, an iconic economy car produced by the French company Citroën from 1948 to 1990. The 2CV, or deux chevaux (meaning 'two horses' in French), was originally conceived as the 'Toute Petite Voiture' (Very Small Car) project in 1936, aiming to provide affordable and versatile transportation for low-income households. It was known for its innovative design, including an easy-to-service air-cooled engine, radial tires, and a famously soft suspension, which reputedly allowed it to carry a basket of eggs across a ploughed field without breaking any.
