Citroen’s Ami One concept car is an electric vehicle that’s as cute as it is compact. The miniature motor only has a top speed of 28 mph, so the French automaker imagines it as a shareable runaround for short drives. The Ami One will be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland in March 2019.
Whether you’d be happy driving such a small car along a busy highway depends largely on your attitude to risk, though as a local runaround it could be quite nice. But one thing’s for sure: No matter where you drove it, Citroën’s tiny Ami One electric vehicle would turn heads, prompt double-takes, and probably result in people pointing at you and laughing. In a friendly way, of course.
Although it’s a concept, the super-cute Ami One isn’t just a graphic sitting on a computer display. The vehicle has actually been built and will make its debut at next month’s Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland.
