About the Citroen CX 2400 GTi Orange Norev 1:18
TL;DR: Norev's 1:18 diecast Citroen CX 2400 GTi in orange reproduces the fastback successor to the DS, with opening doors and hood over the executive car's engine bay. Its distinctive concave rear window is a defining Citroen styling signature. A key 1970s French executive subject.
Replacing the DS was never going to be simple, and Citroen answered with the CX's fastback silhouette, which Norev's diecast renders with genuine mechanical access beneath its opening panels.
Norev's Diecast Build of the CX 2400 GTi
The zinc alloy body carries real weight in the hand, and doors open smoothly while the hood lifts to reveal the engine bay behind the car's long, sloping nose. Norev's orange paint sits with even, period-correct gloss, and the CX's signature concave rear window, curved inward rather than outward to reduce dirt buildup, is molded with accurate, distinctive definition. Panel gaps stay consistent along the doors and liftback hatch, and the GTi trim's sportier wheel design and subtle badging are picked out with clean detail separating it from lower trim levels. The car's low beltline and fastback roofline are rendered with genuine proportional accuracy, capturing the CX's continuation of Citroen's aerodynamic design philosophy after the DS. This is a subject that rewards close inspection of its unusual rear glass treatment specifically.
The CX's Role Succeeding the DS
The CX carried forward Citroen's hydropneumatic suspension technology and aerodynamic design priorities into a more modern, fastback body style, tasked with an unenviable job following one of automotive history's most influential sedans. Its concave rear window became one of its most talked-about features, a genuinely functional design choice rather than mere styling flourish. The GTi trim added a sportier edge to what was primarily an executive-focused range.
Positioning the CX in a French Classic Collection
The CX pairs naturally with the DS to show Citroen's design lineage continuing across generations on the same shelf. Open the doors and hood occasionally for engine-bay viewing, then close them for routine dust-free display.
