1995-2001 Citroën Xantia Activa nominated by @Mark II Blit
Body Style: 5-door hatchback
Engine: 16V: 2.0-litre I4 (XU10 J4D/R); Turbo CT: 2.0-litre, turbocharged I4 (XU10 J2TE); V6: 3.0-litre V6 (ES9 J4); Turbo D: 2.0-litre, I4 turbodiesel (XUD11 BTE); HDi: 2.0-litre, I4 turbodiesel (DW10 ATED)
Power: 147 hp (Turbo CT), 132-150 hp (16V), 191 hp (V6), 110 hp (Turbo D), 110 hp (HDi)

Weight: 1365 kg (16V) to 1485 kg (V6)
Transmission: 5-speed manual

Additional Information: At its introduction in 1995, the motoring press lauded the Activa for its confidence-inspiring handling and comfortable ride. Owing to the first-ever hydropneumatically-controlled anti-roll bars, the Xantia Activa was able to corner completely flat with neglible amounts of body roll. It will comfortably pull one lateral g and slalom at speeds comparable to much newer, more focused sports cars. In 1999, a fully laden Activa completed Teknikens Värld's famous elk test manoeuver at 85 km/h - by a wide margin the highest speed ever achieved in the test.
