If you need mobility simply for short, slow urban trips and as long as you don't view the Ami as some kind of small supermini, it's hard to see why you wouldn't like it very much, especially in this updated form. Because it's not limited by the constraints that would apply to a conventional city car, it can be cheaper, smaller, more economical and more fun. Yes, along the way, compromises have had to be made in terms of performance, safety and cabin space, but likely owners either won't need those things at low speeds in the city; or will have another, more conventional vehicle in the garage back home to provide them.
For decades now, we've been offered new Citroen models that claim to rekindle the brand's original pioneering spirit, but here at last is one that really does. Like the early 2CV it now looks more like, an Ami is original, fun and, in its own way, really quite desirable. Drive one and people you pass will smile and wave - there's a feeling here of the motor car reinventing itself for a very different age. In a Citroen that really is a sign of the times.
