Very like the Tesla cyber truck, the 1980 Citroen Karin was a concept car that didn't actually go and was never meant to be sold.
The Tesla cybertruck does appear to have some working versions, but the actual production and sale of them is a rabbit hole well worth checking out.
The 1980 Citroën Karin was a French concept car that looked like a pyramid spaceship on wheels.
When the Citroën Karin was first presented at the Paris Motor Show in 1980, it attracted the astonished gaze of visitors. It was quite unusual to see a futuristic sci-fi pyramid in a motor show, let alone a pyramid on four wheels.
The driver was able to control almost everything without letting go of the steering wheel. Small computers that controlled various functions were also placed in the door panels near the handles so that both the driver and passengers could reach them.
The real gem was on the dashboard, where a mini cathode-ray tube screen was there to display information about the road and the car.
