Produced in the historical Citroën production site of Rennes–La Janais, new C5 Aircross SUV will herald its “origine france garantie” label at the Paris Motor Show

Press release available only in original language. 

New #c5aircrosssuv will be making its public debut in its French production version at the Paris Motor Show from 4 to 14 October 2018. Endowing a unique personality and more comfort and modularity, it is already available to order in France and will be launched in the third-quarter 2018. Produced at the Rennes – La Janais site, a very symbolic place in Citroën’s history, New #c5aircrosssuv has obtained in August the “Origine France Garantie” label.

Read on to find out more about the historical Citroën plant that has produced the majority of the Brand’s legendary models, and which has been transformed in depth to manufacture the new flagship.

The Rennes – La Janais plant holds a special place in Citroën’s history. It is a longstanding Citroën stronghold, created in 1960 on an initiative of Charles de Gaulle to make Brittany an industrial region, and focused purely on the production of Citroën models. Even though the plant has produced other models to meet the industrial performance objectives of Groupe PSA, this plant is intimately linked with Citroën. The plant has therefore been very proud to obtain the production of New #c5aircrosssuv, the Brand’s new spearhead.

01. ORIGINE FRANCE GARANTIE

New #c5aircrosssuv, assembled in Rennes and calling on suppliers based as a majority in France, some of them in the Rennes area and others directly at the site, has earned the Origine France Garantie label from launch. In this respect, it joins E-MEHARI, also produced at Rennes – La Janais, as well as SpaceTourer and Jumpy, produced at Valenciennes. For customers, this label is a guarantee of French know-how, underpinned by nearly 60 years of production history at Rennes.
