Citroen’s new Ami - a street friendly urban alternative

A new word has been added to the motoring lexicon with the launch of the new 
Citroën Ami, with models available to test drive at selected dealerships nationwide. 
The Citroën Ami hits the streets with its answers to micro-mobility and energy 
transition in the passenger and cargo demands. Prices at launch begin from €9,990, 
excluding dealer and delivery related charges. 
Ami Dimensions 
Citroën Ami is 2.41m long, 1.39m wide with a height of 1.52m, making it an attractive 
option for city journeys and easing the pain of parking. It is 100% electric with a 
5.5kWh battery, with the battery providing a range of 75km, a daily distance far 
greater than the average distance travelled by urban and peri-urban dwellers. It can 
charge in 4 hours via the supplied type 2 charging adapter. The cable to charge Ami 
is neatly tucked away in the passenger door frame, making it convenient to charge on 
the go. 
‘B’ Licence classification 
As a quadricycle Ami has a maximum speed of 45km/h, ideal for inner city driving. 
Despite being classed as a quadricycle, Ami exceeds that of an AM licence type, 
therefore those driving Ami in Ireland will require a standard car licence or category 
B licence type. Ami will also require insurance and motor tax when taking to Irish 
roads.  
 
At its launch, Ami is dressed Night Sepia, a dark brown body colour and has a large 
glass surface area of windscreen, panoramic roof, side windows and rear window. 
Ami is flanked by rounded, manually adjustable exterior mirrors, true to its 
simplistic nature. Meanwhile, the wide doors are completely identical on the right 
and left and open in the opposite direction - rear-hinged on the driver's side to 
benefit from better on-board accessibility and increased comfort. The front and rear 
bumpers are also mirrored at the front and rear, allowing less costs when it comes to 
repair.  
 
Two Versions 
Citroën Ami launches with two versions, Ami Ami and Ami Peps. The Ami Ami 
version is the simplest expression of Ami, it features three colour packs available as 
accessories - My Ami Grey, My Ami Blue and My Ami Orange. These colour packs are 
made for self-installation and incorporate functional and decorative items such as 
wheel trims, exterior colour stickers, interior storage trays, mats, dashboard hook, 
door storage nets, interior separation net, smartphone clip, Citroën Switch to control 
a smartphone and DAT@MI dongle for connection to the MyCitroën app. All three 
colour packs will be sold as accessories at €715 each and will be available from 
Citroën dealerships nationwide.  
 
My Ami Peps is a dynamic version of Ami, available from €10,790. This lively version 
offers all the benefits of Ami, while resembling a small sports car. The Peps version 
features a very expressive front end with a black graphic band under the windshield 

animated by sharp yellow horizontal stickers, as well as black headlight surrounds. 
Its dynamism is expressed through the rear spoiler, its four floral-design wheel 
covers with white decorations, the two custode stickers, and two lower door stickers. 
The number 2 sticker on the door is a nod to the number found on race cars. With 
My Ami Peps, all accessories found on the colour packs are pre-installed, making 
Ami Peps instantly ready for urban adventures. 
 
On the inside the bright interior is welcoming, with a nod to Citroën’s history, the 
side windows open by manually tilting upwards like the original Citroën 2CV. Inside 
the passenger compartment, the two seats layout offers a sense of space and ease of 
movement to each occupant, especially in shoulder width, legroom and headroom. 2 
passengers can therefore converse comfortably thanks to the 2 side-by-side seats. 
Every very nook and cranny are exploited to its fullest while storage space is cleverly 
distributed throughout the passenger compartment. In addition to a storage recess at 
the passenger's feet, which can fit a cabin-sized suitcase, the designers have also 
created another storage area behind both seats. Ami has a closed and heated 
passenger compartment providing protection and comfort on board when there is 
bad weather. 
 
On-board Tech 
Despite Ami’s simple nature, convenient technology is at hand for users such as 
DAT@MI, a dongle that plugs directly into Ami and feeds information such as 
available range and mileage. For infotainment, Citroën offers “My Ami Play” 
interface that transforms the user’s smartphone into an entertainment dashboard 
with quick access to navigation, music, radio, or phone calls. 
An extension of the MyCitroën application, the app is transformed once a user pairs 
their Ami to their phone. My Citroën Play offers a smart, connected, modern and 
useful experience allowing the user to customise their interface with a choice of four 
main supported applications which include live radio streaming, Waze, Apple Music, 
YouTube Music, Apple Maps, Google Maps and more. 
The customisable applications are remotely controlled by the “Citroën Switch” 
button to be positioned on the steering wheel to keep eyes on the road and drive 
serenely, in complete safety. Citroën Switch is a Bluetooth button paired with the 
smartphone and is provided with optional colour packs and standard on Ami Peps 
models alongside the DAT@MI dongle.  
 
AMI My Cargo Kit 
Available as an after-sale modular kit, Citroën has introduced My Cargo Kit. 
Preserving the second seat in Ami's cabin, this new accessory enables an easy 
conversion between the possibility to accommodate a passenger, or transform Ami 
into a delivery vehicle - thus offering additional flexibility. This kit deploys very easily 
in a few movements. A first part composed of 2 panels unfolds vertically to separate 
the driver's area and the passenger area, thus preventing a package from tipping over 
to the driver's side. A second part composed of 4 panels unfolds over the passenger 
seat, from the backrest to the footwell, to offer a practical loading surface protecting 

the seat. An occluding net is also available, extending from the top of the seat back to 
the dashboard to hide the packages stored in the storage space. 
This allows loading up to 200 litres under the storage net, with a total volume of 340 
litres throughout the vehicle. At any time, the three elements that make up this kit 
can be folded and placed behind the seat in a dedicated pouch to comfortably enjoy a 
journey with two people.
