Citroen is part of the Stellantis group (formerly PSA Peugeot Citroen). The Citroen range covers compacts, saloons, SUVs, MPVs and commercial vehicles. Citroen is a French carmaker, founded in 1919 by Andre Citroen. The Citroen diesel range is fully shared with Peugeot, Opel and DS within Stellantis.
The Citroen community in France and Western Europe has a large pool of Stage files. ECUs are standardised across Stellantis, so Citroen files often work on Peugeot/Opel/DS. On older-generation Citroens, Stage 1 is flashed via OBD without a bench. Low-output Citroen engines are city units, and Stage 1 is safe. On naturally aspirated Citroen engines, the main effect is on throttle response.
