      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.
