- Designed in 1974 by Serge Gevin, the 2CV Spot stands out with its two-tone Orange Ténéré and Blanc Meije color scheme, which is both bold and festive.
- Officially launched on April 10, 1976, with only 1,800 units available, the 2 CV Spot was a victim of its own success: the entire stock sold out in just a few days.
- Based on the 2CV 4 and powered by its 435cc engine, the Spot features a striped sunroof, Venetian Orange jersey fabric upholstery, and the famous Quillery steering wheel—all for 13,600 francs.
- Fifty years later, the 2 CV Spot will be one of the stars of the 2026 Nationale 2 CV in Villiers-sur-Loir (May 13–17), a major gathering with nearly 3,000 2 CV models expected to attend, and will be featured on the poster for the Epoqu'auto show in Lyon (November 6–8, 2026). L’Aventure Citroën, the association responsible for preserving and promoting Citroën’s heritage, will participate in both events.
