The Axel was designed as the version that replaced the trademark of the Oltcit Club hatchback that was small. The specifications of Axel were, Axel Club, Axel 12 TRS, Axel 11 and Axel 11R. All these models were featured with an air-cooled flat-twin engine of the Citroen Visa model and the air-cooled engine of Citroen GS/GSA model. The model Axel Club was available in Romania only.
