Citroën missed the transition to electric. They're getting crushed by Renault.

Probably, but they still manage to sell their cars just fine. The french econoboxes are just really affordable, even the e cars

Stelantis are defocusing Citroen.

The amount of overlap in Stelantis’ lineup is completely absurd. I can’t understand how anyone thought it was a good idea to develop seven or eight models in the same segment (this repeating across all segments) that all end up competing and cannibalizing each other. At this rate, they’re going to sacrifice a lot of legendary car brands just to stay afloat.

are they? It's all the same company with the brand today just used for appealing to localized government funding (because we can just shutter that factory you have there!). In the small marketshare electric future these multiple brands will be useful to kill one by one without tarnishing the remaining brands too much.

Renault is not a part of Stellantis.

You might be confusing Renault with Peugeot, that is indeed Citroën with a lion (or is Citröen a Peugeot with two angles?). Anyways, Renault is actually half-merged with Nissan and Mitsubishi.
