9. Citroën SM
The Citroën SM dazzled the world with its futuristic design, advanced hydraulic suspension, and a Maserati-sourced V6 engine.
It promised luxury and performance in a package unlike anything else on the road, but buyers were wary of its complex technology and worried about reliability.
The SM’s uniquely French character didn’t fit easily into most markets, and its brilliance was often misunderstood.
Today, it’s celebrated as a visionary grand tourer that was simply ahead of its time.
