The Citroën GS Camargue was a concept car based on the Citroën GS, presented as a two-door coupé with 2+2 seating. It was designed by the Italian company Bertone. It used GS mechanical components, and was the same overall length, but 6cm (02inches) wider.[2]

It was presented in 1972 at the Geneva Motor Show.[3]

Historically, this is the first collaboration between Bertone and Citroën, which later produced the successful BX.[4]

The GS Camargue is part of Bertone's historical collection and has been showcased at prestigious automotive events worldwide, including the Rétromobile salon in Paris in 2019, on the occasion of Citroën's centenary.
