Awwwwww! Citroen Ami has a lovely new look that includes a subtle nod to the iconic 2CV

The Citroen Ami has received a mid-life update that has made the tiny two-seater electric car even more adorable and incorporated the French company’s latest brand identity and new styling details.

The new face of the Ami draws heavily on the modern and robust Citroen Oli concept revealed in 2022. It is much simpler than before and gives the eccentric electric car even more recognizable “facial features”.

The round headlights have now been moved upwards to better resemble the eyes, helped by new black surrounds that add definition. Meanwhile, the angular surface that connects them is supposed to resemble a smile, and at the center is Citroën’s refreshed, retro-inspired chevron logo.

The front bumper is also flatter now and has the Ami name engraved on it. The wheel arches also appear more pronounced, while the ‘grooves’ on the front fenders are a small, subtle homage to the Tin Snail, the iconic Citroen 2CV.

As before, the rear uses exactly the same body panel as the front, with an added advantage of the new design being that the sloping top section makes it look a little more dynamic.

The Ami comes in ‘Night Sepia’, with three color packs – red, white and green – available to brighten things up by adding graphics, new checkered wheel covers and a dashboard insert.
