FactBefore it was the C3 Picasso, Citroën showed this exact mini-MPV at the 2008 Paris Motor Show wearing a completely different concept-car name: "Drooneel".
The Citroën C3 Picasso is a car produced by Citroën from 2008 to 2017, a five-door mini MPV first unveiled at the 2008 Paris Motor Show as a concept car named "Drooneel". It is the mini MPV version of the Citroën C3 and the successor of the Xsara Picasso, designed to compete with the Opel Meriva, Nissan Note, Renault Modus and Ford Fusion, and was based on the global Peugeot 207 SW. It was first assembled in December 2007 at the PSA Trnava plant in Slovakia, the sole manufacturing site of the model, and went on sale in France in February 2009 for €14,950, in the United Kingdom on 9 April 2009. When launched in Spain only three trims were available: LX, SX and Exclusive. A facelifted version was shown at the 2012 Paris Motor Show on 27 September 2012, and from June 2015 production Citroën replaced the older petrol engines with a 1.2-litre PureTech 110 three-cylinder and a BlueHDi 100 diesel replaced the earlier diesel offerings. A SUV-styled derivative, the C3 Aircross, was manufactured in Brazil and sold in Latin America from 2010 to 2020.

This Presage minivan shares its underlying platform with the Teana sedan and the North American Murano crossover — one architecture doing three very different jobs.

Subaru's family-hauling Exiga got an unlikely STi treatment in 2009 — front spoiler, sport muffler, tighter suspension and a leather Momo wheel — but only 300 were ever built.

YRV stands for Young Recreational Vehicle, a mini MPV built to out-handle its own segment rivals.

The Terraza was Buick's first-ever minivan for the North American market - a badge-engineered cousin of the Chevrolet Uplander, Pontiac Montana SV6, and Saturn Relay.

The restyled 1994 Lumina Minivan quietly made American automotive history: it was the first minivan sold in the US with a power sliding door you could open by remote.

The first-generation Lumina APV minivan was nicknamed the "Dustbuster" by the press for its sharply sloped windshield, which pushed the dashboard far forward of the driver.

Its steeply sloped windshield gave the Lumina APV one of the deepest dashboards ever fitted to a mass-produced car.

The first Presage wasn't really its own car underneath — most of its parts came straight from the Nissan R'nessa, with more shared with its platform twin, the Bassara.
