Great that Citroen is designing quirky cars again. I really like it! Not sure about the flat windscreen, will probably be a magnet for stone chips, but looks cool. I really like that they have kept regular side mirrors rather than adding pointless cameras. And a regular steering wheel! Excellent!

I don't think the complaints about noise are fair, if you have ever drove a vehicle on polished concrete you know it makes squeaky noises. Also think of when you drive through a tunnel and how much louder your car sounds so yeah inside a building you will hear more of the car. Outside much of the road noise would be downed out by normal tire on pavement sounds as well as absorbed by the massive space around you instead of bounced back.
