The Citroën Traction Avant was a truly advanced car when it launched in 1934. It brought front-wheel drive and monocoque construction to the mass market, two features that wouldn't become common for decades. Combined with its four-wheel independent suspension, it offered handling and road-holding that were far ahead of its contemporaries. Production ran for 23 years, finally ending in 1957.
Collectors are drawn to the Traction Avant for its historical significance and unique Art Deco-inspired design. It's a symbol of French innovation and has a rich history, famously used by the French Resistance, the Gestapo, and ordinary citizens during WWII. Models range from the common 4-cylinder 11CV to the much rarer 6-cylinder 15CV, with values varying accordingly.
Today's market for post-war Traction Avants is quite approachable, with an average sales price of just over $17,000. The wide price spread reflects the vast difference between a running project and a fully restored or rare convertible model. Most examples trading hands are the later, more common cars built after the war.
Prices range from $6,900 for lesser examples to $48,000 for pristine or rare models.
138 Citroen Traction Avant vehicles have been tracked across auctions and listings on Hypercars, with 8 currently live. Sold prices range from $1,495 to $754,461.
