Coca-Cola C2 was a Coca-Cola flavor that was first released in Japan, then it was later officially released on June 7th, 2004, in the United States and shortly after introduced in Canada, in response to the low-carbohydrate diet trend. Unfortunately, Coca-Cola C2 was discontinued due to low sales in 2006 in all countries.
Description[]
Coca-Cola C2 is a variant of Coca-Cola which is brown in color, similar to Coca-Cola Zero Sugar. It's flavor is the same as regular Coca-Cola but its calorie count was in the middle. It was sweetened with High Fructose Corn Syrup, Aspartame, Acesulfame, Sucralose, and Acesulfame Potassium.
History[]
Coca-Cola C2 was first released in Japan, it was then later released on June 7th, 2004, in the United States and later released in Canada shortly after the United States release.
For marketing on radio and television, and movie theaters the Queen song "I Want to Break Free" was used. When it was first introduced, though, the Rolling Stones song "You Can't Always Get What You Want" was used.
American sales did not live up to early expectations mainly due to customer disinterest in a mid-calorie soda, and partly due to the success of Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, a zero-calorie version of Coca-Cola; however, Coca-Cola said the brand would remain in its lineup, even while Pepsi discontinued its equivalent product, Pepsi Edge, in late 2005, just one year after its introduction.
Many store shelves completely replaced the product with Coca-Cola Zero Sugar Cherry due to display, shelving and storage limitations, and with the introduction of Coca-Cola Zero Sugar Cherry, the product disappeared from all store shelves where it had previously remained. Coca-Cola C2 was discontinued due to low sales in 2006.
