The chief executive of Citro\u00ebn has told the BBC the car industry needs to consider women when designing cars. <\/p>\n

Speaking at the Paris Motor Show, Linda Jackson said the car maker was canvassing women’s views for what they required from a car. <\/p>\n

She said: “I love driving and I like a nice engine but what I look for is where I am going to put my handbag, where are the kids going to be”. <\/p>\n

She also said she wanted to get more women involved in the industry.<\/p>\n

The first female chief executive of French carmaker Citro\u00ebn, Ms Jackson said she probably looked at cars in a different way to colleagues. “They get into a car and they’ll test drive it: ‘it’s a great engine, it’s superb’.”<\/p>\n

Ms Jackson said looked further than that, examining “the whole storage and the interior. Do I feel safe?”.<\/p>\n
