• 1:15
  section that deepens the topics discussed on
• 1:17
  the portal. I'm with journalist Enzo Mauri, who
• 1:20
  introduces the current topic. Good morning, today
• 1:23
  I'm going to talk about a historic car. There
• 1:25
  were those who rebaptized it, the steering wheel,
• 1:27
  who booms from the living room and who squeals.
• 1:29
  For sure, when the Citroen DS appeared at the
• 1:32
  Paris Motor Show in 1955, the public gazed at
• 1:37
  it and immediately became fascinated. The elasticity
• 1:42
  of the air and the flexibility of the water are
• 1:50
  associated for your comfort. in the suspension.
• 1:54
  Created by Flaminio Bertoni, the Citroën DS,
• 1:57
  which stands for Desiree Speciale, or DEA, a
• 2:00
  name suggested by the French pronunciation, was
• 2:02
  produced for 20 years until 1975 in almost a
• 2:06
  million and a half copies. The Citroën DS was
• 2:08
  produced in great secret, to avoid any kind of
• 2:11
  indiscretion, it was decided that the first 32
• 2:13
  cars to be exhibited at the Paris Motor Show
• 2:16
  would not have been produced on assembly chains,
• 2:18
  but by hand, one by one. Hydropneumatic Citroën
• 2:27
  Each wheel is connected to the car by a piston
• 2:32
  In the factory of Cuaille de Javel, neighborhood
• 2:35
  of Paris, a place was set up from the high wooden
• 2:38
  walls, where to assemble the parts of the Citroën
• 2:41
  DS, nicknamed Le Bocal, the bar. There is no
• 2:44
  doubt that at the time the DEA had retained the
• 2:46
  car of the future, the spring of innovations
• 2:48
  that went from the nylon dashboard in a single
• 2:50
  piece, to the safety handles, the steering wheel,
• 2:53
  gearbox, servo assisted, up to the shape of the
• 2:56
  air vents were abbreviated only at the last moment,
• 3:00
  in the fear that someone could see the projects.
• 3:02
  This piston acts on a liquid that compresses
• 3:08
  a gas contained in a suspension sphere. Look

• 3:22
  The feature that made it unique in its genre
• 3:25
  the Citroen DS were the hydro -pneumatic suspensions
• 3:28
  headed by Bertuni on the Trazio 9, a previous
• 3:31
  model of car that allowed to travel on only three
• 3:34
  wheels in case of puncture. The DS19 of General
• 3:38
  Charles de Gaulle managed to bring the president
• 3:41
  to life in the attack of Petit Clonmont despite
• 3:43
  punctured pneumatics. In the years to come, the
• 3:46
  Citroen DS was produced in numerous versions,
• 3:49
  even station wagon and cabriolet. The ID .19,
• 3:52
  the most popular, is less expensive. Named Squallo,
• 3:55
  but also in the form of a wreck, steel -like
• 3:57
  iron or ugly anatrox, the car still entered the
• 4:00
  collective imagination, becoming an icon of an
• 4:02
  era. The opposite game of these elements maintains
• 4:09
  the body always horizontal. Many will remember
• 4:19
  the Citroen DS as the car of Inspector Ginko,
• 4:22
  the enemy of Diabolik. In the famous comic, the
• 4:25
  protagonist shouts on another historical car,
• 4:28
  the coupe version of the Jaguar E -Type, while
• 4:30
  in the saga of the criminal Fantomas, the car
• 4:33
  turns into an airplane. Thanks Denzo Mauri for
• 4:36
