CITROËN AT BORD BIA BLOOM
Power Of One Show Garden
BEHIND THE GARDEN
Since its foundation in 1919, Citroën has always harnessed innovation to deliver comfort and a sense of well-being in its cars. Today, this innovative spirit needs to be harnessed to respond to the great challenge of our time.
While most car manufacturers are still talking about size, features, speed, equipment, Citroën believe we should talk about recycled materials, family happiness, innovation, lightweight and caring for people and planet equally. Sometimes enough is just enough. The right car for your needs, the right balance between size, weight and range.
The greatest threat to our planet is the belief someone else will save it.
Citroën is just one car manufacturer of many who must change to save our planet. Now is the time for clever thinking to address the resources a car uses over its entire lifetime. This is addressed by our concept car, Citroën Oli.
