Citroën ZX

The Citroën ZX is a small family car produced by the French manufacturer Citroën between 1991 and 1998.

During the 1990s, the ZX was Citroën's competitor in the class, traditionally dominated in Europe by the Ford Escort and Volkswagen Golf, a market segment Citroën had moved away from when the GSA was replaced with the BX ten years earlier. The BX had tried to address the small family car market and the large family car market by being 'between sizes' but well packaged. The Citroën ZX chassis was also used for the Peugeot 306 in 1993, which with its attractive Peugeot 205 derived Pininfarina styling, was a more successful car than its twin. The Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Partner were also built on the same platform. European production and sales of the ZX ceased in 1998 with the arrival of the replacement Citroën Xsara.

A notchback derivative called the Citroën Elysée continued to be produced till 2008 for the Chinese market (where it is a popular taxi), by the Dongfeng Peugeot-Citroën Automobile, a joint venture with the PSA Group.
