The logical follow-on from the iconic Citroën DS was the CX, and it continued Citroën's passion for designs that challenged the market standards of the time. Designed by Robert Opron, a French automotive designer who originally trained as an architect, the sharp angles, covered rear wheels, and a squared-off Kamm tail were the main features of the CX. All steering-column stalk controls were also eliminated in favor of buttons on the steering wheel, making it another design innovation that saw into what would be the future of car design.
