"Quatre roues sous un parapluie", telle est la définition de la TPV (Toute Petite Voiture) en 1936 : véhicule économique, capable de transporter quatre personnes et cinquante kilos de bagages à 50km/h dans le maximum de confort. En 1939, 250 prototypes sont prêts pour un Salon de l'Automobile qui n'aura pas lieu pour cause de seconde guerre mondiale. Pour éviter qu'ils ne tombent aux mains des nazis, tous les prototypes sont détruits sauf un restauré depuis et trois autres retrouvés dans un inaccessible grenier d'un Centre d'Essais Citroën de Normandie.
Il faut attendre le Salon de Paris de 1948 pour voir réapparaitre la 2 CV qui se dévoile lentement devant le Président de la République Vincent Auriol. Elle stupéfie par son aspect insolite, l'astuce de ses aménagements, son caractère ultra-économique et ses possibilités d'utilisation multiple. La presse est perplexe. Le public aussi. En 1950, l'afflux des commandes est tel que le délai de livraison grimpe jusqu'à 6 ans !

1939 wurden 250 wassergekühlte Prototypen der sogenannten 2CV Serie „A“ bzw. TPV gebaut. Das Akronym TPV stand für Toute Petite Voiture, zu deutsch ganz kleines Auto. Der TPV besaß nur einen Frontscheinwerfer und wurde ausschließlich mit Blick auf den Nutzwert konzipiert. Entsprechend karg fiel die Gestaltung des Fahrzeugs aus.

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 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
The Special was updated for 1981, with a centrifugal clutch, disc brakes and a 25 litre fuel tank, the changes later being rolled out to all models
