About the Citroen SM Tropiques Green Norev 1:18

TL;DR: Norev's 1:18 diecast Citroen SM Tropiques in green reproduces the Maserati-powered French grand tourer with opening doors and hood. Built in zinc alloy, it captures a 1970s subject that looked unlike anything else on the road.

Citroen paired its own hydropneumatic engineering with a Maserati V6 for the SM, and the result was a grand tourer that still looks unusual decades later, a shape Norev's diecast treats with genuine care.

Norev's Diecast Build and Opening Panels

The zinc alloy body carries the SM's long, low fastback nose with a weight that signals proper diecast construction rather than a lightweight shell. Doors and the hood open, letting a collector inspect the cabin and the engine bay housing that Maserati-sourced V6, a genuine display feature rather than a static casting. Panel gaps around those hinges sit at the tolerance typical of mid-tier diecast, tighter than entry-level toys but honest about the mechanical compromise that moving parts require. Norev has built a reputation on French marque coverage, and this SM shows that specialization: the six covered headlights and the low beltline are captured with a confidence that a generalist manufacturer often misses.

A Distinctive Grand Tourer for a French Shelf

The SM's Tropiques edition wore a distinct color palette suited to a warmer-market variant, and green sets this casting apart from the more commonly seen metallics. Grouped with other 1970s French cars, the SM's unconventional silhouette, closer to a fastback spacecraft than a traditional GT, gives a shelf real visual variety rather than another generic coupe outline. Because the doors and hood genuinely open, it also rewards handling, letting a collector show off the SM's unusual dashboard layout. For anyone building a French marque collection or simply chasing 1970s design oddities, this model earns its place through its subject alone, before the build quality is even considered.
