The 1958 Citroën 2CV AZU Fourgonnette is a quintessential piece of automotive history, representing the ingenuity and simplicity of post-war French automotive design. The 2CV (deux chevaux-vapeur, meaning ``two steam horses`` was initially designed by Citroën in 1937, with production delayed until after World War II. When it finally launched in 1948, the 2CV became an instant success, with its functional, utilitarian design appealing to a wide range of customers, from farmers to city dwellers. The 2CV AZU Fourgonnette, introduced in 1954, was a key model variant that offered more cargo space and utility, making it especially popular among small business owners and tradespeople. The 2CV AZU Fourgonnette was a light commercial version of the Citroën 2CV. It maintained the same overall design philosophy as the original 2CV sedan but featured an extended rear cargo area and a reinforced chassis to handle the added weight. The body was built with an emphasis on practicality and robustness, with the rear of the car designed to accommodate cargo rather than passengers. The AZU Fourgonnette’s rear section was often fitted with twin rear doors for easy loading and unloading, making it ideal for tradespeople or small-scale delivery work. The engineering of the 2CV AZU remained delightfully simple, with a 425cc two-cylinder air-cooled engine that produced just 12 horsepower. Despite its modest output, the 2CV AZU was not about speed or power; instead, it prioritized fuel efficiency and durability. The cars suspension, a novel feature of the 2CV, was designed to handle rough and uneven surfaces with ease, which made it perfect for rural settings where roads were often unpaved or poorly maintained. Citroën famously designed the 2CV to be able to carry a basket of eggs across a plowed field without breaking any, and this ethos carried over to the AZU version. The 1958 Citroën 2CV AZU Fourgonnette remains a beloved example of practical, minimalist automotive design. Its rugged durability, simplicity, and cultural significance make it a standout in the history of Citroën and an enduring symbol of post-war French ingenuity. Even today, the 2CV AZU holds a special place in the hearts of car enthusiasts and collectors, with its timeless design and association with a bygone era of simpler, more utilitarian vehicles.
