Concurrently, the automaker may also bring the Citroën Metropolis concept to market as the top shelf model in the DS line. The long and smooth car would be another crack at the executive sedan market for Citroën, after dismal sales figures for the C6.
“We cannot afford to let the likes of Audi, Mercedes and BMW forge into Citroën’s heartland supermini territory without fighting back and pushing into theirs,” PSA boss Jean-Pierre Ploué said to Autocar. “Selling large luxury cars in Europe is not easy at the moment, but I believe Citroën has a great deal more to bring to the market."
