Citron C3 Pluriel Latte
John Voelcker
No hydraulic, retractable hardtops for Citron. Instead, the roof rails and sliding cloth top of this nifty four-seater can be removed entirely, providing open-air motoring on the cheap-just like its spiritual predecessor, the 2CV.

Saab 9-3 Convertible BioPower Hybrid
John Voelcker
Pure ethanol (E100) from lumbering waste is a standard fuel option in Sweden, so mating Saab´s 260-hp BioPower turbocharged 2.0-liter four with parent GM´s two-mode hybrid just made sense. The outcome is a gray-silver AWD car that´s also the first hybrid convertible, the first hybrid without fossil-fuel emissions-and one of the sexiest on the floor.
