Aug 12, 2003 – First details have been announced of Citroën’s C-Airlounge concept car, which will make its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The svelte new concept takes a fresh approach to stylish grand touring, and features 'mood changing' interior lighting.

The overall shape and careful attention to airflow gives the C-Airlounge concept a drag coefficient of just 0.26, with Citroën seeking to show that space and practicality needn’t be sacrificed for style and aerodynamics.

Making the most of the generous interior space is an ingenious modular seating system that can accommodate either four or five occupants. The C-Airlounge introduces a radical new take on interior lighting systems, which allows the passengers to select the mood of lighting, thanks to fibre-optics and video projectors within the carpets and armrests.
