Incidentally ,
The DS series had a teardrop shape when viewed from above and the spare wheel was under the hood so there was a completely flat trunk floor which held about 18 cu ft.
The self leveling suspension ensure the car remained in the ideal angle of attack to take advantage of the shape regardless of the number of passengers and volume of luggage carried and the ride frequency was also virtually unchanged.
The Renault had a similar arrangement for the spare and the body was a five door hatch and better aero then the blunt front would suggest.
Cheers , Pete.
