The Citroën Ami is scheduled to arrive in the United States from Free2Move, a car rental company.
Free2Move plans to introduce the Citroën Ami as a new mobility solution to its fleet of vehicles available in major US cities.
Launched last year as a direct descendant of the IAM UNO concept, The Citroën Ami is not considered a car as such. The French brand defines it as an object or ATV that facilitates urban mobility.. Since its presentation at the Geneva Motor Show, it has often been seen in some European cities where it has been well received for being a quick and efficient solution for short trips and for not requiring a driver's license to operate. In subsequent years, It would not be strange to see him in the US, as some media reports, thanks to the Free2Move initiative., a company that plans to use it as one of its available options in Washington DC.
There are only two seats inside the Ami, which, despite its size, is very comfortable for passengers. and he does not need special sockets to replenish the load, a standard household 220V source is enough. Its battery takes only three hours to charge, and once charged, it provides 70 kilometers of travel with a top speed of 45 km/h. The panoramic views contribute to its design, making its interior fully lit, but at the same time full of safety and comfort. It also has plenty of interior storage space right behind the seats, putting everything you need for your trip within easy reach. With these characteristics, it proves to be an ideal option for public transport and, compared to own cars, an affordable alternative with low fuel consumption and low operating costs..
Since launch Citroën offers the Ami not only for purchase, but also as an environmentally friendly option for shared vehicles such as the Free2Move., thereby expanding its availability in large urban areas. For this reason, in addition to having it in its fleets in some European cities, it is likely that this company will soon introduce it to the US market, despite the fact that little information is available about it.
Although they have the same name, this electric car has nothing to do with one of Citroën's most iconic vehicles, Ami 6, a segment car produced and sold by this French firm between 1961 and 1979.
