The Bentley driver looks insulted and the guy in the Lamborghini tries hard not to stare. Because where once they were the centre of attention, they are suddenly no longer getting the most admiring looks. After all, the city now has a new star and all eyes are on the Citroen Ami.
The little Ami is at the very other end of the scale to their exotic machines, costing less than a set of alloy wheels for the Bentley with a basic price of about £7,000. It would probably fit in the boot of the Bentayga with a little effort.
But this tiny electric car gets people excited, especially the kids who can drive it legally in France when they are aged 14 or over. It’s smaller than a Smart and cooler than concept show cars, with hopelessly unconventional styling and crazy ideas which never usually get further than a stylist’s notepad.
It’s already on sale in France and from next spring also in Germany, the Ami is to become the best friend of the novice drivers, who are allowed to take the wheel at 14 or 16 years old, depending on the local laws. There’s no news on whether it will come to the UK yet, as Citroen executives are keeping a close eye on the likely demand.
It's essentially a quadricycle, or 'Urban Mobility Object' according to Citroen. It has a 5.5kWh battery and a 44-mile range and could be the perfect city car - sorry, Urban Mobility Object, ever.
