AG2R CITROËN TEAM

A major partnership in cycling

For over 100 years, Citroën has constructed a fabulous story with its customers, contributing to their daily lives and mobility. In January 2021, alongside AG2R LA MONDIALE, Citroën became a co-partner and sponsor of Vincent Lavenu’s team. This partnership, with the unique signature “Roulons autrement” (“Let's travel differently”) conveys powerful messages.

CITROËN

A popular brand

Since its creation, Citroën has always been a popular brand, close to people. Cycling perfectly embodies this closeness – it brings together a large number of people of all ages, in numerous countries around the world.

It was therefore very natural for Citroën to become involved in cycling.

UNIQUE AND DARING JERSEY

A new identity for the team

The creation of the AG2R CITROËN TEAM team's new graphic identity was a seminal moment in the collaboration between Citroën, AG2R LA MONDIALE and Vincent Lavenu’s team. The project took five months.

The design of the jersey was not limited to a juxtaposition of brands. It represented a real challenge for the three parties, who choose a strong and unique graphic approach certain to stand out among the peloton. It perfectly illustrates the partners’ shared daring, alliance and ambitions.

Success on a sporting and human level
