Citroën AMI (8 hp) - POV drive & walkaround!

Показать описание

Driving the new electric Citroën AMI during the Zoute Grand Prix car week. In this video I show you the exterior, interior, features, a top speed run and how to park where there is no parking space.

The AMI is a 2 seater mini EV that recharges its 5.5kWh battery in three hours from any standard electric socket.

You can order your AMI online, at selected Citroën dealers or at media stores like FNAC in Belgium & France. It costs about € 7.000 without delivery.

The AMI isn't a real car, but a 'quadricycle'. This means you can drive it from the age of 14 or 16 in some countries or you don't even need a driving license to drive it. Operating it is as easy as pressing a button to go forward or reverse, put you foot on the throttle and turn the steering wheel.

With a range of 75 km (43 miles) and a top speed of 45 kph (28 mph), the AMI is your best friend in a crowdy city or suburban area.

Parking is easy with a length of just 2.41m and you can do a u-turn in most streets in one go, because the turning circle is just 7.2m.

It is very small, but feels very spacious. You sit on the rear axle and in front of you is a lot of storage space.

If you need space for just 1 person, you could also order the AMI Cargo, with a lot of extra storage space instead of a passenger seat.

Body panels are made as simple and symmetrical as possible, there is only one door that fits both sides, one side it hinges in the rear, the other side it opens like a regular door. Front and rear panels are also identical, just the front has white lights and the rear red lights.

The AMI is't painted but can be customised with sticker packs.
It is 100% recyclable apart from the battery, which is 85% recyclable.

Had a lot of fun driving this pocket EV! Would you buy it? 😃

Ok, so finally a car which has perfectly symmetrical design both in front and rear. Finally our childhood design came true. 😁

Petrolhead: We don't like electric cars because it's so silent !

Citroen: Got it! Let's put a loud fan on it!

I love how the windshield wiper only allows use of 2/3 of the window

Almost has as much HP as my garage door opener, nice!

"Why is the fan so loud?"
"WHAT?"
"I SAID WHY IS THE FAN SO LOUD?"
"YOU WANT A CAN OF TROUT?"

I love that it's almost as modern as a Tesla but at the same time just as rough as a Trabant!

So this is effectively a two person electric wheel chair with an outer shell

2:58 The fact that he parked the car at the back of that Range Rover which had the reg. "GOODBYE" and ended the video 👏👏

I like the basicness of the design. I wish that more car manufacturers would focus on simplicity, longevity and ingenuity of design instead of overloading their cars with gadgets and features.

"How stone-age and ridiculous can we make this car?"
"Yes."

These are PERFECT for car sharing within medium to large cities - sometimes you just need a vehicle to grab some shopping or go on a route that doesn't work with public transport and you could rent this for an hour and be done!

It's like a base model car from the '70s and '80s. I would have zero issues keeping one of these around for short errands and in an emergency.

"Parking space leftover"; I just learned a new term. As for the dew-covered window glass, a good purchase would be a quality 6" width squeegee—what a fun word—like an Ettore or Unger product that would make quick work of those windows. Best leave the wiper for rainy days. With that much window glass, being a little "OCD" about keeping it clean will help kill some of the time it takes to charge the vehicle.
