De Citroën 2CV een lelijke eend?
De Citroën 2CV staat voor Deux Chevaux Vapeur, de leterlijke vertaling is 2 paardenkracht. André Citroën overleed op 3 juli 1935. Citroën werd overgenomen door bandenfabrikant Michelin. In het zelfde jaar, wil Michelin indruk maken op de plattelandswegen met een betaalbare auto. In 1938 ontwikkelt Citroën het prototype van de 2CV, de TPV (Toute Petite Voiture). In 1939 zou Citroën het prototype aan het publiek tonen op de Salon de l’Automobile in Parijs maar door de oorlog werd dit evenement afgelast. Nadat de Citroën fabriek op 3 juni 1940 gebombardeerd wordt neemt de productie van de 2CV af. De prototypes die nog in tact zijn worden gedemonteerd en geborgen. In 1942 wordt de Citroën fabriek opnieuw gebombardeerd. Tijdens de oorlog loopt de jaarlijkse productie van Citroën terug van 100.000 naar 9.000 auto’s.
In 1948 is het dan eindelijk zover, de Citroën 2CV wordt aan de bezoekers van de Salon de l’Automobile gepresenteerd. De reactie van het volk waren wisselend. Zo was er een Nederlandse journalist die de 2CV naast de andere Citroën modellen omschreef als “Lelijk Eendje”. De term lelijke eend blijft daarna in de volksmond een geuzennaam. In België wordt de auto “het wippertje” en “de geit” genoemd. In Duitsland “Ente” en in Frankrijk “La Deuce”en in Engeland “Tin Snail”. De serieproductie van 2CV begint in 1949. Citroën heeft tot het einde van de productie op 27 juli 1990 totaal meer dan 5 miljoen 2CV’s in veel verschillende uitvoeringen geproduceerd.

Special:
- Designed by Flaminio Bertoni as the TPV (Toute Petite Voiture: 1938) what later became the 2 CV (1948), restyled by André Lefèbvre, included headlamp beam height adjustment.
- The flat-twin air-cooled engine was designed by Walter Becchia, while the ingenious suspension was designed by Marcel Chinon.
- Only one colour was initially offered when the car came on the scene in 1948, it was grey. A second colour (blue) was offered since 1959 and then in 1960 yellow was added.
- The engine did not even include a distributor; instead, there was a coil that fired the spark plugs and only speed-controlled ignition timing: the “wasted spark ignition system”.
- The cenrtifugal clutch (“Trafficlutch”) is designed for city use. You can drive off in 1st or 2nd gear. The AZ is now driving like an automatic.
Na het staken van de lokaaltramdienst in Bex zijn de twee drieassige motorwagens in gebruik gebleven. De Be 2/3 15 en 16 werden in 1948 door de Schweizerische Wagons- und Aufzügefabrik AG (SWS) op drieassige onderstellen van SLM gebouwd. De 15 is inmiddels in een nieuwe groene kleur geschilderd. De 16 draagt nog de traditionele kleur blauw in een hedendaagse vlakverdeling met "snelle" strepen.
Vanuit Villars worden goederen bezorgd op de hoogtevlakte, dat is het vlakke trajectdeel waar geen tandstaaf is gemonteerd. Zo'n korte goederentram vormt een klassiek beeld dat ooit bij veel kleine trambedrijfjes te zien was maar bijna overal al weer lang verdwenen is.

Made until 1988 at the Levallois plant North West, Paris but continued in Portugal until 1990. Originally introduced with a 375cc HO2 engine, increased to 425cc and finally 602cc. One of the few makes of car to have gone on to achieve cult status.
In 1936, Pierre-Jules Boulanger, the vice-president of Citroën and chief of the Engineering and Design department, set the brief to his design team at the Bureau d'études. The TPV (Toute Petite Voiture — Very Small Car was to be developed at Michelin facilities at Clermont-Ferrand and at Citroën in Paris under chief engineer André Lefèbvre , his own speciality being chassis design. By 1939 the TPV was deemed ready, after 47 differing prototypes had been built. During the summer of 1939 a pilot run of 250 cars was produced and on 28 August 1939 the car finally received French market homologation and the car was scheduled to make its public debut at the 1939 Paris Motorshow which was cancelled due to the impending war. The project, which had developed in some secrecy was shelved and the cars either hidden, disguised or destroyed during the years of occupation. André Lefèbvre had in the meantime decided to abandon the water cooled engine and briefed Walter Becchia to design an air-cooled unit, still of two cylinders, and still of 375cc. Other changes included seats with tubular steel frames with rubber band springing and a restyling of the body. further delays ensued in 1944 caused by the incoming socialist Government. The 2CV was finally launched at the 1948 Paris Salon (Motorshow) to great acclaim and Citroen were flooded with orders, over the years the 375cc engine grew to its final 602cc and vans and pick ups, were built, while the car developed into many different forms
