    historically they have 3 giants: Renault, Citroën and Peugeot !

    with globalization they’re everywhere now

    Why would you hesitate to get in a French car?

      Mostly a joke, but you should watch the Grand Tour: Carnage A Trois

      The French have a questionable and hilarious automobile engineering history.

          Don’t be so upset, it’s just a joke. Your people are good at many things, food and wine for example. Cars just aren’t one of them.

            they are not my people 🤔 speaking french doesn’t make one french

            you can make a joke about Volkswagen and ecology, for example, there is material there. But what’s funny about writing that you hesitate to get in a french car 🤷 where’s the joke?

            french culture is rather good with machines and engineering. Trains, planes, cars, towers, bridges and nuclear stations &c.

            they should be proud.

            Bicycles?
