BRAVO JACK! Who else is calling for small efficient EV's? Only 70% of market that is not buying EV's only because they are still too expensive for compromises. With lower price and dimensions, compromises are smaller and larger part of market is now target for that product. Back in 70's 80's 90's we had mid segment cars with ONLY TWO DOORS THAT WERE NOT SPORT BUT ECONOMY MODELS AND WERE CONSIDERABLY CHEAPER, Astra, Golf, Escort, Kadett, Ritmo, Tipo, R19 are only from top of my head, even Sierra, Rekord two door economy engines and not GTi versions. Then in 90s they dropped economy 2 door cars and now we have market that does now work because 4 doors is more expensive to produce and is heavier and then less economic. so please give us economy cars that are usable and again BRAVO JACK for saying that :)

There is a big gap between Ami and E-C3, nearly bought an Ami new on launch in UK (deposit down then delays / EV market changes) but instead got a 3 yr old Seat Mii Electric instead this year only a few thousand difference for an actual car that I have done a 300 miles in a day trip in. Secondhand E-C3 may be tempting in a few years, but a EC-1 / EC-2 on a good lease deal new could tempt a lot of cost conscious buyers.

For the largest battery being the most popular, I think one of the factors would be charging anxiety of people who never owned an EV before and want an extra reserve just in case. I absolutely love the cute little choo-choo. They absolutely should make an ad for it exploiting the similarity. A matching tiny trailer made to look like a side dump hopper train car (and capable of fitting a large suitcase or the content of a big shopping cart) would be insanely cute combo and it'd still probably fit on a single parking spot.

A delightfully sensible review which is fully family-friendly! Well done, Jack. I knew all along that you could do it. 🙂👍 I like the Ami too, but wish that it had similar range and performance to the Renault Twizy. I'd buy one in a flash as a town runabout if Citroen would only make those much needed improvements. As it is right now, with a top speed of barely 25 mph, it's downright dangerous in cities and towns outside of capitals such as London. Our city has several main roads with 40 mph speed limits which either go through the city or go to its suburbs. Crawling along at an eventual 28 mph on level ground runs a big risk of a dull grey microcar like the Ami being shunted and shattered, even in daytime. Also, why doesn't the U.K. have something akin to the French Sans Permis, the Portuguese equivalent, or even the Chinese 'Happy Old Man' category of road vehicles? The nearest we have is the moped, which is nothing close to being as practical and safe as a small four wheeler, especially in our notoriously damp climate.

Huge badge suits a boxy front/SUV, not the curves on this car. Lease new, buy 2nd hand still holding true price wise. Manufacturers need to state distance/kWh, not just WLTP range, so you can see cost to run, just like MPG.

Jack makes the e-C4 look small! I was thinking about an e-C1 or e-C2 on an existing platform like the 500e's recently, but Stellantis is also going to sell the Leap Motor T03, and that segment seems to have lost steam, so that would be a good idea only if they're sure it can compete.

If you're saying 4m/kWh is what they think you'll get, it'll be closer to 3.5 on average across all driving conditions summer, and 3 in winter. That makes it a 150 to 180 mile range car. Which is plenty for most journeys but I do want maybe 50-100 miles more for the every few months longer journeys. I have an e-208 and currently seeing 120 in this weather. Which means 100 in colder weather. Again, more than plenty for my daily use, but heading to the parents' houses far south or far north I want that extra 100 miles...

The e-C4 sits on the same platform too, so I think your 150 mile winter range is very likely. I completely agree with you about the handful of times you need more range to be a deal-breaker.

I agree range hurts and i believe electric is the way to go. But i truly think ignoring range is hurting adoption. I would go so far as wanting a generator for tht big trip you take twice a year. And the tank for that should add 2 - 300 miles. If i had that my 2019 lef with barely a hundred mile real word highway range would be adopted by many more people. Don't forget that these range extended vehicles never need to use petrol it is there fore peace of mind. Some people need to go great distances in their cars they will never adopt a range bound vehicle. That simple.

@@andymccabe6712 not really it's my opinion, I think the badge looks like another coe child has a job and ruined another logo, but your opinion is it's better it's an opinion that apparently upsets you. This is just my opinion but from your comment you seem to think you know everything about a person, and are using a response to make yourself feel better about yourself. I hope you find what your looking for in life and have a good life.

Very odd battery choises because the capacity diferrence it's so small. It's because one is LFP and the other NMC ?

I have the current e-C4, and I don't like the facelift at all, the one I have is approximately 100,000,000 times more attractive than this one- the silver under the lower intake makes it look much bigger, even though it is the same size as on the current one. The square lights look like someone has had the hacksaw out to bodge fit cheap aftermarket LED bars into the panels. (A lot of this could be the choice of colour, a lighter colour might improve things) On the other hand, the larger display will be very welcome, and they seem to have done away with the button by the handbrake that puts a huge uninformative animation of regen on the centre screen. What I'd like to see is 1) a gear shifter instead of the little switch- I don't think I will ever get used to it and have to look at it every time I use it, whereas a shift lever falls to hand nicely 2) actual numerical information on the screens, things like current power consumption/regen rate, remaining charge %, battery/motor temperatures etc. (what I'd really like is for the outside to be 90% of the size whilst keeping the inside the same, which they could do by removing the void spaces at the front and sides, then you could actually open the door enough to get out in a parking space, and not overhang the end of it!) Does it still have the awkward tablet holder that doesn't actually fit anything- when a tray that slides out and angles like a music stand would have been better? top tip: get the front camera, it was a £350 option on the old one. It adds self park and gives you a wide angle creeping out onto the road view sideways. I'd rather the original purchaser of mine had specified it with poverty white paint and the camera than the £650 coloured paint I do have if money had been tight....

Jack said he thinks many of us wouldn't need to own a car if there were more shared micro-cars around. I respectfully disagree. Most families need a 4/5 seater car. Yes more shared microcars/ebikes/bikes to get single people and couples around town is good (especially if public transport stays as bad as it is outside of London), but they are never going to replace family cars.

The Ami would make a fantastic punishment car. Make it a category that drunk drivers can still drive as they work off their ban. Imagine roaring around in a Porsche or Tesla and then having to go to work in an Ami. Fun cars yes but a bit of a come down if they are the only way to keep your job

I dig the Oli design waaay more than the old one & I too, am cheering at the end of fugly SUVs in general. I love the new Ami too but the fact that they didn't add range in any shape and form 4 years later is problematic. With all the progress going on in the EV world, they couldn't find a way to add +10% range?? Come on! The new Mini Renault Mobilize has DOUBLE its range for only +2K€! It's going to steal their lunch.
