Poissy, 2025 – The beloved Ami returns with a bold new companion in tow.

Citroën has redefined the frontiers of electric micro-mobility once again with the launch of the all-new Ami Buggy, an open-air adventurer designed for fun, freedom, and fearless exploration. Making its dynamic debut alongside the refreshed Ami range at the 2024 Paris Motor Show, this plucky little baroudeur brings playful styling and the thrill of the outdoors to the urban jungle — and beyond.

A New Chapter for Ami: Matured, More Expressive, and Still Inimitable

The new Ami family isn’t just growing — it’s evolving. Sporting a more assertive, mature design language while keeping its original spirit intact, the latest iteration of Citroën’s micro-mobility marvel introduces a revised face with stronger structure, sharper lines, and a friendlier expression. The new Night Sepia colour gives the vehicle a grounded presence, while three fresh customisation packs — Spicy, Icy, and Minty — add vibrant, youthful energy to the mix.

The Ami has always been about freedom, simplicity, and making everyday life easier — and that ethos remains unchanged. With over 75,000 units sold across 18 markets in just five years, the Ami has become the European leader in electric micro-mobility, offering an accessible alternative to scooters, e-bikes, and inconsistent public transport.

From 6 May, customers can place their orders for the entire range, including the all-new Ami Buggy, with first deliveries set for August.

Citroens All New Ami Buggy Electrified Freedom With A Spirit Of Adventure

Ami Buggy: A Breath of Fresh, Electrified Air

If the new Ami is the responsible older sibling, then the Ami Buggy is the mischievous free spirit — doorless, roofless, and brimming with character.

Developed from the wildly popular Ami Buggy vision concept, this production model is no longer a limited-edition fantasy. It’s here, and it’s ready to bring open-air electric mobility to the masses. With metal hoop-style half-doors, a removable soft top, and zipped weatherproof door covers available for all-season use, the Buggy is your passport to the outdoors. Whether it’s beach runs, countryside escapes, or just weekend drives with the wind in your hair, Ami Buggy delivers a tactile, fun-first driving experience.

The Ami Buggy further distinguishes itself with:

  • A black rear spoiler for a sporty finish
  • Gold-accented 14” steel wheels and black centre caps
  • A new yellow chevron logo for extra visual punch

And then there’s the Palmeira edition — a zestier take on this free-spirited runabout. With tangy yellow styling elements and a matching interior colour pack, this version adds even more vibrancy. Inside, you’ll find colour-matched accessories, infotainment connectivity via My Ami Play, and a delightful dashboard mascot named Andy — a bobble-headed robot who perfectly captures the cheeky personality of the Ami Buggy.

Still the Same Ami at Heart — But Better

Despite the expressive facelift and expanded lineup, the core values that made Ami a success remain untouched:

  • Electric-only, with a 75 km range
  • Rechargeable in just 4 hours using a standard household plug
  • Accessible from age 14 in some markets, with or without a driver’s licence
  • Compact and ultra-agile, measuring just 2.41m with a 7.2m turning circle
  • Safe, enclosed cabin for two occupants

Every Ami — including the Buggy — offers the choice between cash purchase or wallet-friendly rental options, and the entire process can be completed online, keeping things refreshingly simple.

Built for Everyone: A Line-Up With Purpose

Citroën’s strategy with Ami has always been inclusive and modular, designed to suit every lifestyle. Today, the range includes:

  • Ami for All – tailored for individuals with reduced mobility
  • Ami Cargo – featuring a modular kit for professionals who need flexibility and space
  • Customisable Packs – with accessories delivered alongside your Ami for easy DIY upgrades
  • Ami Buggy & Palmeira – for those who want to inject a dose of leisure and adventure into their daily journeys

Each version remains unified by a commitment to affordability, sustainability, and intuitive design — including the clever use of symmetrical parts to reduce costs and simplify production.

The Verdict: Freedom, Redefined

The all-new Citroën Ami Buggy is not just a vehicle — it’s a statement. In a world increasingly defined by complexity and constraint, it offers a return to joy, ease, and electric freedom. Whether you’re 14 or 99, commuting through town or heading off the beaten path, there’s now an Ami built just for you.

Citroën has once again proven that big ideas can come in very small, very charming packages.
