  • Stellantis’ DS brand has reimagined the Citroën SM for the fashionable era with an idea
  • The concept perfectly blends modern and retro design cues
  • DS developed the concept as a part of its design research for models due at the tip of the last decade

The Citroën SM was an engineering marvel of the Seventies, with features like hydro-pneumatic suspension, a quad-cam V-6, and an aerodynamic design that delivered a drag coefficient of 0.26, a low figure even today and exceptionally low on the time of the SM’s launch.

Sadly, the automotive didn’t excite the market, and Citroën pulled the plug on production after just five years. Had the SM remained in production, a contemporary iteration may need looked just like the SM Tribute concept unveiled on Wednesday by DS, the premium French brand that was spun out of Citroën and today forms a part of the Stellantis fold. The DS name actually comes from the long-lasting Citroën DS, a model for which the SM was originally envisaged as a performance variant.

The brand new SM Tribute was built to mark the tenth anniversary of the Chantilly Arts & Elegance, and can make its formal debut on the French gathering which runs from Sept. 12-15. In keeping with DS, the concept was also an exercise in developing the design for production DS models due around the tip of the last decade.

The concept blends modern and retro cues to end in a design that is each unique and inspired by the unique SM.

On the front, the wraparound cover for the headlights and license plate on the unique has been reinterpreted as a sculptural screen that serves as a light-weight bar. Moving to the side of the concept, the profile retains the characteristic lines of the SM following the airflow from the wide front to the narrower rear, and naturally the rear wheels are partially concealed, identical to on the unique.

Inside, the mix of old and latest continues. The road of the dash resembles the unique design, here augmented with a curved digital gauge cluster and . The seats also go retro with their horizontally striped cushions, and have a mixture of leather and Alcantara for his or her trim.

DS hasn’t said what powers the concept, though a scarcity of exhaust suggestions hints at an electrical drive system. Since DS is an element Stellantis, one in every of the auto giant’s STLA EV platforms likely underpins the concept.
