Cici

Stars 'n' Fire Engines (Fireman Sam: Silver Hatch Heroes)

Firecar Cici (*by Fireman Sam*)

**Cici** is a red and blue French rally car who is very bubbly and friendly, and is number 3. She's also Roary's best friend. She's used to be a hybrid car that runs on oil, solar energy (which can be seen atop her roof), and electric energy. As of Fireman Sam: Silver Hatch Heroes, Cici has robotic arms, hands and legs and doesn't really run on these fuels as she now walks instead of driving.

## Biography

She has a flirtatious attitude and is always challenging Roary to "Catch me!" And even though Cici and Roary have had some fallouts, they still care for each other, as they've saved each other from danger numerous times and encouraged each other as well. Cici speaks with a high, squeaky French accent.

Cici was born and created in Paris in her home country France in 1991. Then she moved to Pontypandy in 1994 where she got saved by Fireman Sam from two Northern Irish campers who kidnapped her. In 2007, Cici moved to Silver Hatch where she was faced with emergencies that required Fireman Sam to come to rescue her. In 2009, Cici was rescued by Sam after being barricaded by Marsha (off-screen in the test pilot) with wooden barriers. In 2016, Cici's younger cousin Zizzy took completely over the role of her elder cousin's racing, as Cici resigned from her rscing roles due to her thinking about her bad memories of her racing role. Cici got a new part and that is being Silver Hatch's ambassador. In 2022, Cici recived brand new signature colours, which are red and blue. Kerwhizz Fire Officer Pingu placed a sticker on Cici in 2016 reading "Resigned from racing role". Cici got repainted completly in 2022 to avoid confusion with her younger cousin. In 2023, Cici got the greatest upgrade she could wish for. Cici got brand new State of The Art permenant robotic arms, hands and legs. Cici took little baby steps to walk over to Pingu's platform and she did it. Now Cici can walk, run and do other things she wasn't able to do. For example: Cici can now do Ballet, Acrobatics, gymnastics, dancing. Cici can even go in the water without being in danger with the thanks of her legs keeping her safe. Fireman Sam has allowed Cici to do this because she is older than Zizzy.

## Technical Details

Her signature colours are Red and Blue. She sports the number 3 like many of the other race cars. Her design is inspired by a French rally car. She has permenant robotic arms, hands and legs and is Silver Hatch's first ambassador.

## Trivia

* Cici is the only racing car to not have her accent changed in the US dub.
* Cici is the only female racing car until TLBH introduced new racing cars from other parts of the world.
* She is the only racing car who is a hybrid until Zizzy arrived in Silver Hatch.
* She used fuel as well as solar panels. Zizzy now does that part
* She was the only race car who does not have arm-like appendages on her front bumper. In Fireman Sam: Silver Hatch Heroes, Cici has her robotic arms and hands, making this the first time where Cici has arms.
* Cici's upgrades became a meme in comments on TLBH's YouTube community page where Cici looks like she can transform like Robocar Poli (who would also make an apperance in Fireman Sam: Silver Hatch Heroes along with Super Wings and Paw Patrol) But Cici doesn't transform. Because Cici's upgrades aren't designed to make her transform. Ironiclly, there is a character called Cici in Robocar Poli.
* Fireman Sam: Silver Hatch Heroes is the first series where Cici does not get called by her US name in the US Dub, in 2022, TLBH decided to split Cici's UK and US names into 2 characters. Cici remained her normal self with her UK name whilst her US name Zizzy is the name of her younger cousin.
* Out of all the characters, Cici was the character that was faced in crashes, sleeping on the track, not controling herself, different emergencies she faced. TLBH considers those scenes as "Backlash". TLBH also complained that Cici is the only character that does not have enough appearances, so her personality isn't explained properly.
* Zizzy wanted the ambassador role. But it was given to Cici instead as Cici clamed that her younger cousin is too young for the role.
* Fireman Sam: Silver Hatch Heroes marks the first time where Cici and Roary don't fallout.
* Cici is the only racing car to have Permenant robotic arms, hands and legs. The rest of the racing cars have detachable robotic arms, hands and legs.
