CHANTILLY ARTS & ELEGANCE RICHARD MILLE 2017: CITROËN CXPERIENCE CONCEPT SCOOPS AWARD

Citroën CXPERIENCE CONCEPT wins the Concours d’Elégance “Best of Show” at the Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille, held at the prestigious Domaine de Chantilly venue. Admired by the 16,000 visitors for its distinctive body style, CXEPERIENCE CONCEPT demonstrates Citroën’s modern vision of automotive comfort, and was revealed to the public at the Paris Motor Show one year ago. CXPERIENCE CONCEPT was personalised by Chinese desginer Yang Li specifically for the event, and named joint winner with one of the other concept cars in the “Best of Show” prize.

The 4th Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille brought together the cars of the future and the world of fashion in the incredible setting of the Domaine de Chantilly, France. This year, more than 16,000 visitors came to discover the five concept cars in the running for the prestigious Concours d’Elégance award and admire the 90 historic vehicles from the four corners of the globe.

Five cars were contending for the Concours d’Elégance and in the end the judges awarded CXPERIENCE CONCEPT the title “Best of Show”, alongside one of the other concept cars. Spectators at the Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille were treated to a unique show in which each manufacturer was invited to create a concept car with a renowned fashion designer. Citroën went all out for the 2017 Concours d’Elégance, presenting CXPERIENCE CONCEPT personalised by Chinese designer Yang Li.

The award-winning concept car has already received many accolades, such as the RTL- Auto Plus Grand Prix awards at the 2016 Paris Motor Show, where it made its first public appearance.

CXPERIENCE CONCEPT demonstrates the Brand's "Be Different, Feel Good" promise in the hatchback segment. With its distinctive body style, CXPERIENCE CONCEPT overturns convention in high-end design and comfort, and embodies the benefits of the "Citroën Advanced Comfort®" programme.
