The Citroën Karin was a concept car presented at the Paris Motor Show in 1980. It featured a striking, pyramidal design by Trevor Fiore. The exterior of the car incorporated flush glass panels, faired rear wheels,^[1] and butterfly doors.^[2] The roof of the Karin was only the size of an A3 sheet of paper due to its truncated pyramid shape.^[1] One of the Karin's most noticeable interior features was the unconventional three-seat layout with the driver located in the middle of the two passengers.
