When the Citroën SM debuted at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show, it looked like a machine from another planet-a low-slung, glassy grand tourer that fused French artistry with Italian performance. Beneath its sculpted skin lay one of the most ambitious feats of automotive engineering ever attempted: a Maserati-designed V6 paired with Citroën's revolutionary hydropneumatic suspension and self-centering steering.

When the Citroën SM debuted at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show, it looked like a machine from another planet-a low-slung, glassy grand tourer that fused French artistry with Italian performance. Beneath its sculpted skin lay one of the most ambitious feats of automotive engineering ever attempted: a Maserati-designed V6 paired with Citroën's revolutionary hydropneumatic suspension and self-centering steering. It was a car that promised to redefine what motion could feel like-silky, effortless, and futuristic. Futurism in Motion: The Citroën SM Story chronicles the complete journey of this extraordinary automobile, from Citroën's postwar innovations and its partnership with Maserati to the SM's dazzling rise and untimely fall amid the oil crisis and corporate upheaval. Drawing on factory records, design archives, and the voices of engineers and enthusiasts, it explores how the SM embodied both the genius and fragility of Citroën's daring spirit. More than a car, the SM was a statement of belief-that technology could serve beauty, and that progress could be an art form. This is its story: a tale of vision and vulnerability, of a car that soared too far ahead of its time, and of the passionate community that keeps its legend alive today.
