- 1:36production. Welcome to 70x80, the section of
- 1:427080 .it that deepens the topics discussed on
- 1:46the portal. I'm with the journalist Enzo Mauri
- 1:49who introduces the topic today. Good morning,
- 1:51today I'm talking to you about a lucky French
- 1:54car. The first particular thing that to us of
- 1:567080 .it passes through the head when we think
- 1:59of the Citroen 2CV is a funny sequence of the
- 2:02French film Six gendarmes en fuga of 1970. In
- 2:06the film with the comic actor Louis Dufounet,
- 2:08the six gendarmes meet two sisters who decide
- 2:11to give them a ride. Driven in a dangerous way,
- 2:14the two -horse Citroen with a good eight people
- 2:16on board shows all its capabilities to overcome
- 2:19any roughness of the terrain, even the most accidental.
- 2:26I'm called Ludo. And this doesn't tell you anything,
- 2:35my eyes don't tell you anything. the two -horsepower
- 2:44citroen also known as two horses or dgv has been
- 2:47one of the most iconic models in the history
- 2:50of the car the nickname two horses refers to
- 2:53the tax power of the car or two fiscal horses
- 2:56introduced in 1948 and produced until 1990 the
- 3:01car renamed by the French the milk maca captured
- 3:04the hearts of millions of people with its distinctive
- 3:06design and its mechanical reliability the two
- 3:10-horsepower citroen of the four -speed manual
- 3:12gearbox was given of a two -cylinder boxer engine,
- 3:15air -cooled, with an initial cubature of 375
- 3:18cubic centimeters and able to produce a maximum
- 3:21of 9 horsepower. In 1970, here is the new engine
- 3:42of 602 cubic centimeters, able to produce up
- 3:46to 28 horsepower, always with the typical handlebar
- 3:50ignition. A distinctive aspect of the Citroen
- 3:522HP were the torsion bar suspensions. This simplified
- 3:56system offered a comfortable ride together with
- 3:59the soft suspensions, allowing the car to adapt
- 4:01well to unpaved roads. James! James! The two
- 4:21-horsepower was one of the first standard cars
- 4:23to adopt front -wheel drive. This feature, combined
- 4:26with its light weight, gave the car a good grip
- 4:30on various terrain. The wavy body, a kind of
- 4:33wavy blade, not only contributed to the distinctive
- 4:35design of the two -horsepower, but also offered
- 4:37a light and resistant structure to corrosion.
- 4:40The folding hood allowed to transform the two
- 4:44-horsepower into an improvised convertible, a
- 4:46functional detail that reflected the practical
- 4:48and versatile spirit. of the car. The minimalist
- 4:59cabin was another characteristic trait. The 2CV
- 5:02was designed with the aim of being accessible
- 5:05to a wide range of people, emphasizing the essentials.
- 5:09Another particular thing that put it at the top
- 5:10of the praise of the general public, the low
- 5:12taxes. The 2CV was subjected to severe tests
- 5:16of robustness during development. It is said
- 5:18that the original prototype was driven on an
- 5:20arid field. with a basket of eggs on the seat,
- 5:23showing the ability to cross difficult terrain
- 5:26without breaking the eggs. For this reason, the
- 5:28Citroen 2CV gained the reputation of the farmers
- 5:30who also used it as a means of transporting goods.
- 5:33When it was designed, in fact, the goal was to
- 5:36transport two peasants and 50 kg of potatoes
- 5:38at a maximum speed of 60 km per hour, consuming
- 5:42just 3 liters of gasoline every 100 km. In 1951
- 5:46the furgonata version was introduced, equipped
- 5:48with a higher central mount, per favorire il
- 5:51volume di carico posteriore. Nel corso della
- 5:53sua lunga storia furono realizzati 5 .114 .969
- 5:59esemplari, di cui 1 .246 .335 furgonati. Grazie
