Present in China since 1992, Citroën is now consolidating its position with a new vehicle developed specially for this market and scheduled for launch at the end of 2006.


Based on the same platform as the Peugeot 206, the new 5-door compact hatchback is the first vehicle in this segment to be produced and launched by Citroën in China. A car with real personality, it rounds out the Marque's current Chinese range, made up of the Fukang, Elysée, Xsara Picasso, C-Triomphe, C5 and – soon – the C6.

Although it is completely different from its European counterpart, this new vehicle has also been baptised C2 in order to position it within the range sold in China.

According to forecasts, more than 40,000 units of this new vehicle will be produced in China over a full year.
