Citroen's new city car - the C1 - has made buzz online when it was revealed (in pictures) before its official debut at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show. The funky looks and character are hard not to fall for, especially for the younger audiences. Now, the French automaker has chosen to use this chic supermini to pay tribute to the motor show - by wearing the national colours of Switzerland. The city of Geneva has always been considered one of the world's most liveable. That means it should be the perfect place to launch a car of such playful character. Dubbed 'Swiss & Me', the C1 Concept car has a two-tone effect - red roof and white body, with the Swiss flag proudly worn on the roof. Works are not limited to aesthetics - the C1 Swiss & Me has a central tailpipe, wing extensions and large wheels to hint at its performance. Now imagine if our streets are filled with cars of a similar concept - but wearing the national flag of Singapore instead. How cool is that?

Superminis are a hit among city dwellers thanks to their cutesy dimensions that are easily manoevrable around the city. But more recently, they have been gaining chic and stylish personalities which made them hard not to fall for. And the latest Citroen C1 is one good example. Having sold more than 760,000 examples since it was first launched in 2005, the C1 is a commercial success for Citroen. This latest iteration aims to work on that and bring more customers to the marque. On top of the conventional three-door and five-door variants, the C1 will now come in a new open-top body style called Airscape. Who says you can't have the wind-in-you-hair experience in your supermini? The new fascia is delightfully funky and attractive, with the new headlamps creating a 'cheeky gaze' that should create an uplifting mood - not just for the driver, but for the bystanders too. Citroen will unveil the latest C1 supermini at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.
