DS Citroen"s posh sister brand has dusted off its crystal ball and projected its brand 17 years into the future in the best possible way. with a wild concept car. We actually saw sketches of this monster back in April, but only now has it been turned into a tangible object. Before it debuts at the Paris Motor Show in October, we were summoned to a top-secret military facility near Paris to meet the X E-Tense close up, and experience it in full flight.As you"d expect from a future-facing car these days, it is both electrically-driven and, supposedly, fully autonomous. These two factors both shape the car"s design and its character, but also remind us that much of this car"s spec must be taken with a pinch of salt. It"s real, it looks spectacular and it moves down the road, but it"s hypothetical. For now.
