Citroen revealed a new brand logo on Tuesday that, according to the brand, marks a new beginning as the automaker speed up its electrification process. The new logo reinterprets the original one which was created by founder Andre Citroen in 1919. The original one was inspired by the success of the founder's first metalworking company producing chevron-shaped ’herringbone’ gear systems.

The evolved ‘deux chevrons’ symbol of Citroen is the 10th revamp of the badge. Citroen will introduce this new brand identity at the end of September as it plans to put it on a conceptual Citroen family vehicle. Versions of it will then progressively enhance future Citroen production and concept vehicles from mid-2023 on, informed the automaker. The company also added that the prominent vertical oval reflects a new design language which will be immediately recognised in all the Citroen models.
