Die Ente – Das radikalste Minimalismus-Experiment der Automobilgeschichte
From a basket of eggs on a country lane to over nine million vehicles produced: The Citroën 2CV is one of the most unlikely success stories in automotive history. How a car that journalists derided as an "umbrella on four wheels" in 1948 became the "Duck"—and why it changed the world. In this video, I tell the complete story: from its secret development in the 1930s, the prototypes hidden from the German occupiers, the shock at the 1948 Paris Motor Show, to the last one rolling off the assembly line in Portugal in 1990. 00:00 First Impressions 01:00 France Before the War — The Specifications 02:30 The Secret Development 04:15 War and Vanished Prototypes 05:45 Paris 1948 — The Unveiling 07:30 The 2CV and Its Names Worldwide 09:00 Waiting Lists and Radical Minimalism 10:20 The Chassis Explained 11:50 Evolution — From 375cc to the Sahara 13:30 From Farm Car to Cult Icon 15:00 The End of Production in 1990 16:10 Legacy and Outlook Which car should I dig up next?
