Trevor Fiore's 'GT for the year 2000'
A follow-up to the Karin, the Xenia refined its pyramidal, glass-dominated aesthetic into a more practical four-seat grand tourer with gull-wing doors. Described by designer Trevor Fiore as a 'GT for the year 2000', it rode on mechanicals that previewed the forthcoming Citroën BX and featured a high-tech dashboard with a solar sensor and ZF automatic gearbox.
