On board of Citroën Ami to discover Milan

Citroën Ami it contains (almost) the comfort of a car and the agility of a scooter. Pass on the right (without breaking the rules of the road) a series of vans stopped at the traffic lights in via XXII Marzo; shoot green faster than cars; slip into the narrowest alleys, cutting off all traffic and without risking getting stuck: here are some of the advantages of urban driving with Citroën Ami, a quadricycle of 240 x 139 centimeters and from verve of a car. Without forgetting its truly captivating design.

In just over two hours, we covered about one sixty kilometers in the city center slipping through the traffic like athletes of parkour. The target? Discover the unusual corners of Milan. In via Pontaccio, at number 20, we saw a block of flats nicknamed the Tappachi which, like Harry Potter’s Leaky Cauldron, has the narrowest apartments in all of Milan. But we also passed by Bagnera alleythe narrowest street and theater of royalty noir Milanese. Transported by the surprise of finding colorful gardens and villas in the heart of Milan, we stopped to take two shots in via Lincoln, called by the residents the Lombard Burano. But we also ended up at the end of Viale Monza in the old ones warehouses dell’Ovolmattina to admire the new one My Ami Cargo. And then, when it was time to put our legs under the table, we went home. Indeed better, we returned to the Maison Citroën.

Maison Citroën it is located in Piazza V Giornate, inside the Coin store. Not a simple corner, but an original space created to offer the customer a physical experience in a convivial environment like one’s home and at the same time digital. Here, for one yearthose who want to choose to move intelligently through the streets of Milan (avoiding too full public transport and congested traffic) may be helped to buy online your own Citroën Ami.

We assume that Citroën Ami can only be purchased online. The customer, therefore, can do it freely at home, at the dealer or go to the Maison Citroën to be helped in the choice. Here, using the Citroën Wall, a consultant will guide the visitor in the optimal configuration of their Ami or another model of the Citroën range. It will present the related commercial offers, until proceeding with the online purchase of the desired model. At Coin it is also possible to ask for take a test drive: obviously we recommend it. After opening in Milan, in 2022 Maison Citroën will open in Catania and Bologna, in the COIN stores, also within the Lifestyle Hub.

Citroën AMI can be driven starting from 14 years. In Italy you need the AM driving license. Easy to use and to park, it recharges like a smartphone in 3 hours from a normal 220 volt electrical outlet thanks to the 5.5 kWh battery. The engine from 6 kW of power and 625 Nm of torque pushes Ami in 10 seconds up to 45 km / h for a maximum of 75 km and allows you to carry two people sitting side by side. The cockpit is solid, spacious and protective against both impacts (hopefully not) and bad weather. In summer, however, we recommend a nice suction cup fan to connect to Ami’s USB socket; very useful under the sun in the short moments when standing in the column.

This quadricycle offers different levels of customization with kits of aesthetic and functional accessories for the exterior and interior, available in 4 shades (Orange, Gray, Khaki and Blue) to be applied easily by yourself. To these are added the two versions My Ami POPwith elements of a young and sporty style and with the rear spoiler, and the version My Ami VIBE, with accessories of superior range, elegant and graphic, which integrates the roof bars in addition to the stickers. These are divided into 6 reasons: Jungle for a wild look, All Fruits to fill up on vitamins, Globe-Trotter very British, Camo for a techno look and Tribe for nature lovers. Furthermore, in full “Do it yourself” style, customers can customize their Ami themselves.

Citroën Ami starts from 7,600 euros for the AMI AMI version to the 9,000 euros of the MY AMI VIBE. The new MY AMI CARGO version, for the transport of packages up to 140 kg, costs 8,000 euros.
