SPREMEMBE

[garac]

Kot, smo vas opozarjali že pred izletom v Konzervatorij v začetku leta, je bila to ena zadnjih možnosti za ogled. V času krize so Pariško tovarno odprodali, enako tudi C42. Ker je Citroen vedno zelo napredna in inovativna znamka na področju oglaševanja in trženja, nas čaka sledeče:

CITROËN SHOWROOMS: A TRANSFORMATION UNDERWAY!



Date of publication : 07/12/2017

 

Citroën is undergoing a complete transformation: not only is the brand revamping its vehicle range but it is overhauling the entire customer experience it offers, beginning with its showrooms.
That is how "La Maison Citroën" came about. This new urban retail concept was unveiled in Paris and is now being introduced worldwide (in China, Latin America, etc.). Thirty such outlets are due to open their doors by the end of 2018.
In line with this concept, the brand's dealerships are being modernised too, with new interior designs to be introduced throughout the global network by 2019.
As part of this metamorphosis, Citroën is currently working on opening a new flagship store, following the permanent closure of its Champs-Elysées store, C_42, at the end of the year.
These initiatives all share the ambitious purpose of rewriting the rulebook that governs conventional retail in the automotive industry and offering a warm, homely experience that lures new customers.


"LA MAISON CITROËN" SET TO BE INTRODUCED WORLDWIDE
"La Maison Citroën" is the flagship showroom that symbolises the firm's transformation. It is a new retail outlet concept specially designed for city centres. After its first location was inaugurated in Paris last April, "La Maison Citroën" is now being introduced throughout the world. Several openings have already taken place worldwide, like in China, Japan and Colombia. By the end of 2018, as many as thirty "La Maison Citroën" showrooms should have opened, the first of which will be opening in Belgium and Morocco.
Open since April 2017:
France         Paris 16th arrondissement (39 Rue Saint-Didier)                      April 2017
Japan          Tokyo, Chuo                                                                               June 2017
China          Wuhan Hongtai                                                                           June 2017
China          Anhui Weifeng                                                                             June 2017
France         Paris 14th arrondissement Alésia (98 Av. du Général Leclerc)  November 2017
Colombia     Bogotá                                                                                        November 2017
The surface area of "La Maison Citröen" is less than that of a conventional dealership so the number of models exhibited is limited. The showroom nevertheless stands out through an enhanced physical experience, with a timber environment that gives prominence to the sense of touch and displays materials and colours. They also incorporate the best of digital technology, via interactive screens: a 3D configurator, Citroën Advisor, Citroën Origins, etc.
In terms of roll-out, "La Maison Citroën" can be adapted to any new location using modular architecture that includes special walls for the models, with related visuals, merchandise and digital content.
Recognised as an innovative retail concept, 'La Maison Citroën' has already won several awards (Janus du Commerce 2016, commercial architecture category of the Grand Prix Stratégie du Design, Label 2018 from l'Observeur du design, etc.).
 
NEW INTERIOR DESIGNS FOR DEALERSHIPS
In line with the world of "La Maison Citroën", the brand's dealerships are also getting a makeover, with new interiors. Redesigned spaces, colours, new furniture, decoration and offices all instantly modernise the showrooms and create a warm, homely atmosphere that breaks the rules of conventional retail in the automotive industry. More than ever, the comfort, so characterisctic of Citroën, finds expression in the brand's showrooms!
By 2019, all retail outlets in the primary network worldwide will have adopted the new interior design. In 2017, around 150 retail outlets have completed their transformation and nearly 1,000 have begun theirs. In 2018, this will be followed by about 1,500 more renovation projects. The new interior design can already be seen in Europe (90 outlets transformed), Latin America (39), the Middle East (7) and Asia (10).
In France, as many as forty retail outlets have already undertaken to revamp their design, such as dealerships in Dijon, Saint-Denis, Reims, Bordeaux and Clermont-Ferrand, who have already adopted these changes that will be introduced throughout the primary network (excluding agents) of Citroën France in 2018.
The renovation of dealerships' interior designs comes alongside the creation of a new collection of clothes specially designed for sales advisors. Offered to all dealerships at the end of this year, this clothing collection includes a choice of three kits for men and four kits for women, in line with the brand's new colour scheme. To complete the spirit of comfort, these outfits come with sneaker-style shoes like those worn by hostesses and hosts at the brand's stands at international motorshows.
 
NEW FLAGSHIP STORE

Lastly, as part of this transformative process underway in its showrooms, Citroën plans to open a new flagship store within the next two years. This new site will be the successor to the Champs-Elysées store in Paris, C_42, which will close definitively at the end of the year after 34 exhibitions, ten years in operation and over ten million visitors.
Like "La Maison Citroën", the brand's new international showcase will bear all the marks of Citroën's metamorphosis and may also serve as a retail outlet. Watch this space...
In the meantime, you have up to the end of this year to enjoy the latest exhibition currently open at C_42, which is devoted to the New SUV C3 Aircross!

Kje pa bodo hranili svoje starejše avtomobile?

[garac]

na novi lokaciji, kjer si bo možno ogledati tudi Simce, Peugote, DS... en skupen muzej odprtega tipa se obeta

Najbrž bo naša omiljena spet v manjšini, tako, kot na trgu novih vozil

[Lovro]

Hvala. Se pravi, neke vrste klasični muzej.

Vse se seli v "Sušo", tam je Peugeotov center. (Sochaux)
