The first design sketches of the interior and exterior of this car were completed in early 2014. Citroen created their first full-scale clay model in June 2014 and chassis work began in September. Assembly of the Aircross concept began in December, while the finishing touches were added at the end of March 2015 – just in time for Shanghai!

The Citroen Aircross Styling Manager, Frédéric Duvernier, said, “Everything in this project forms a coherent whole because all the teams have worked together since the first sketches were done. It is apparent in the spirit, the colours, even in details like the hooks in the rear for attaching luggage that have the same shape as the tow hooks. Another example: onboard technologies like the graphical interface. This was integrated in the development stage so it would contribute harmoniously to the interior ambience.”
