Citroën Bringing Customized C1 Urban Ride Concept to Paris

So far, we know that the Chevron marque is rolling in to Versailles this year with the C4 Cactus Airflow 2L, a pair of specials done with fashion designer Ines de la Fressange, and the Divine DS concept from its newly emancipated luxury division. But that's not all – it's also lined up the little concept you see here.

The C1 Urban Ride concept is based on its new Citroen C1 hatchback, the compact city car that's now in its second generation - but with a more rugged approach. It rides on a suspension that's jacked up by 0.6 inches and the track has been increased by 0.4 inches. To drive home that extra ruggedness, the Urban Ride's appearance has been augmented with reinforced bumpers and wheel arches – all to show the customization potential of the city car in both fixed-roof/five-door and fabric-roofed Airscape bodystyles.
