Citroen Xsara CITROEN XSARA PUSHES CITROEN AHEAD IN 1998

Citroen's European sales rose by more than nine per cent in 1998, pushed ahead by the outstanding success of the Citroen Xsara, which added more than a quarter of a million sales to its account during the year.

Launched in Australia last year and having a similar dramatic effect on local sales, the Citroen Xsara is proving to be one of the French car maker's most successful new models of all time, not just in France but in every market in which it is sold.

Citroen's nine per cent increase in sales last year put it comfortably ahead of the overall increase in the market, which grew by seven per cent to nearly 14.5 million new cars. With sales of 1.6 million, the PSA Group, of which Citroen is one half, was the largest French carmaker.
