It doesn't have the iconic 2CV look ...

Nor do the new mini ever had the original mini look. The Daihatsu Trevis was much closer to the Issigonis Mini look than the new mini ever was.

I may be wrong but I don't think the 2cv has a design that can translate as easily to a newer version the same way as the beetle design could without being completely denatured. I think it would be easier to build a modern HY looking van.

The first generation C3 (FC/FN) was close to the 2CV. There was as well the C3 Pluriel, where the top could be removed, a little bit like the 2CV.
