Here in France the Ami are already a best-seller, you saw A LOT of them in front of schools (yep you only need to have 14 years old and a scooter licence to drive it)

Citroen AMI is the future of urban motoring ...in Italy they call it Topolino meaning Mouse

Love the channel man!! Need to go back and start binge watching ✊✊

The blue Renault badge indicates it's electric, it's on the Zoe too.

Great video, fun and clear presenting, thanks for making!

Great video, I loved it! Thank you.

I have a Renault Twizy AND a Sinclair C5 and love ‘em both!

7695 is the UK price, gosh the inflation is out of this world. From 6000 to 7695 in less than a month.

In the Citroen shop, it's unfortunately £7,695 for the basic model, £8095 for some bells and whistles and £8,495 for all the bells and whistles.

Yes for £8,500 it's pretty expensive for what it is. £6k and it would start to become more appealing...but probably not enough to get it over the line for me.

it'll be great when someone can tweak it, and give it a bit more oomph but with a £2500 deposit and £19.99 a month i'd say it's a great deal for city commuting

That twizy is utter bonkers, F1 meets lawnmower comes to mind. Saying that I'd love to drive it or ride it lol

the spoiler on the AMI is not stock : this is an accessory...I known some Tesla owners in France who have in addition this AMI quadicycle, not only for they childrens, but to city drive , go to work and go shopping because it's much more practical in the cities , or close arround

Very interesting video

That Twizzy looks so sick

I liked the amii I saw in a vid that was “beefed up” pretty much with just add-ons (ram bars front &back and roof rack) and a paint job. Problem is here in the states, this is pretty much a glorified golf cart, and those are looked on very unfavorably by law enforcement, motorists (on the road), pedestrians (if it’s cleared to go on bike paths)… the range being 40-45 miles is also a bit limiting, but I think it’s better than an actual golf cart so if you used it with the limitations in mind it should be alright.

They don't do 40mph they do 28mph, which makes them unviable outside of cities which is a shame. They are all left hand drive as well.

45 km/h: use metric to avoid confusion!

Does the Ami have any kind of battery cooling? Just wondering about battery longevity. Are they likely to degrade within a few years? Or does the lower 48v mean the Ami battery isn't likely to have the same kind of battery longevity problems that higher voltage systems would have without cooling?

Doesn’t the blue badge indicate the car is electric or a hybrid? Toyota hybrids have the Toyota badge in blue

You could include a Carver. Mad machine, needs more range (or removable batteries), and £12k is a lot of money for basically an electric recumbent trike. Fun though.

the ami does look cool. but i wish the top speed was a little faster also a removable battery be cool too.

I was hoping that the Isetta would have been included.

did you really stop on zig-zags at a pedestrian crossing to let other cars pass!!!!

I've been driving smart fortwos since 2008. I used to love road tripping, which made an EV impractical for me. Well, those days are over, I haven't been out of town in years. A small EV would suit me fine now. Not an Ami, though. It'll almost certainly never be available in the USA anyway.

Awailability from the AMI in the US depends on the legislation in the USA: in most European countries, is the AMI in the same category as the small 50cc scooter which does not require a license, only very basic training, and does not meet "normal" car crash test standards, but the AMI is far safer than a scooter...

The AMI is far from perfect but.... It is telling you more about why not to buy a Tesla than why to buy an AMI. AMI is telling you what could be done for a fair and affordable price. Make it in RIGHT HAND DRIVE and de restricted and you've got something that will sell like hot cakes. There are similar cars being produced in China and they will never see the light of day over here, because the government don't want you to have them. It is not about safety standards either, you don't need twin disc and ABS to halt an orange box.

Forgot about microcar

one year ago, every car company want its own Ami, and it's not a success, it's a phenomenon , there is a 1 year wanting list to get one in France. I think on the contrary, that's the future of cars !

It’s more about the cheapest vs the smallest. The cost of these of these you can buy an NCAP tested, airbags, SIPS and ABS *car*. These are not cars by the definition. But quadricycles. If roads in cities were a mandatory 20-30mph and absolutely NO more than, then you would be laughing with the Amy. But seeing as we have 40-45mph roads in them it’s a nightmare scenario. I have an EV moped -30mph- it’s perfect for messing about but I still have to partially access 40mph roads and as well all know, drivers NEVER stick to a speed limit unless you monitor them. So 20 becomes 26-30mph and a 30 becomes a 40+ and a 40 becomes nearer a 50mph. Unlike in south France where there’s 10 of thousands of EV smart cars and EV bikes and the roads are built for slower traffic, here it’s just garbage driving anything small.
