Dating from the early seventies, Mini~Zup was the creation of Jacques Né and his team.

Conceived as an urban car, it had rear wheel drive, a 602 cm3 flat twin but detuned to 12 bhp and set up in such a way as to provide maximum low speed torque.

Transmission was via a torque convertor (no clutch pedal).

Mini~Zup weighed 370 kg and occupied half the road space of a conventional car, measuring 1,98m in length and 1,45 m in width. Top speed was 70 kph.

The roof was removable, along with the windscreen.

An electrically powered version was also worked on, together with numerous other variants but in the event, the decision was taken to introduce the Peugeot 104 based LN.

Citroen C3 Aircross 2018 - Maniobra de esquiva (moose test) y eslalon | km77.com - Duration: 2:05.

Citroen C3 Aircross. Moose test.

The reactions of the Citroën C3 Aircross have been satisfactory regarding overall safety.

The maximum entrance speed at which we completed the moose test successfully was 77 km/h.

It is a high speed, the same that we achieved with a KIA Stonic.

However, the electronic stability control (ESC) of the C3 Aircross worked more abruptly and as a result the movements of the car were less fluent.

The warning lights went on automatically every time that we performed the test.

When the entrance speed was of 78 km/h or higher, we knocked down at least one cone.

The car's reactions still were safe and controlable,

but at the same time they were not very predictable because the ESC did not apply the brakes gradually.

Having said that, the most important things here are that the car always felt under control

and that it was easy for the driver to make the car follow the desired path.

Slalom

On the slalom the body roll was moderate.

It is not an agile car but it managed to cope with changes of direction at a normal pace.
