The Citroën Zabrus is a concept car with 3 doors and a 2+2 shooting brake design that was designed by the Italian design studio Bertone.[2] It was based on the mechanics of the Citroën BX 4TC. It was first presented in May 1986 at the Turin Motor Show.[3] The hatchback of the Citroën BX itself was based on a design by Bertone.[4]

Quick Facts Overview, Manufacturer ...

Notable features of the car include an all LCD monitor display for the odometer, gauges, and more, as well as a “belt type” steering wheel that rotated in either direction while mounted on the main display. The Zabrus is a shooting brake with a 2+2 seating configuration, with two scissor doors upfront for easy access to the rear seats.[5]

The Zabrus was powered by the 2141 cc turbocharged I4 engine from the BX 4TC, producing 147 kW (197 hp; 200 PS) at 5250 rpm and 294 N⋅m (217 lb⋅ft) of torque at 2750 rpm. Like the 4TC, the Zabrus is all wheel drive and power is sent to the wheels through a five speed manual transmission. This setup gave it the top speed of 138 mph (222 km/h).[6]
