Ami One Concept: for a new urban mobility
Unique exterior design
Since 2016 and the appearance of the new C3, Citroën has been emphasizing design and comfort. A unique design, made of smooth curves without edges. The Ami One Concept appropriates it to also show that urban mobility can be done in style while making a nice nod to the 2007 Cactus concept.
In its desire to make the Ami One affordable, Citroën gives it a totally symmetrical design:
- The wide smooth doors are the same on the driver and passenger side, which gives a different opening direction depending on which side you enter or exit the concept. The driver's side opening is antagonistically for the benefit of better accessibility.
- The front and rear faces are identical and their layout is reversed
- The wings are identical
- The sills are identical on the left and on the right
- DRLs and taillights are reversible right / left
A simple, intuitive and ultra-connected interior
Faithful to the new direction of Citroën's interior design, inspired by the universe of the house, Ami One Concept is inspired by other universes for an urban driving in rupture and all in comfort ... a whole program.
The living area, bathed in light, shows particular care in materials with the objective of enhancing the space on board and functionality. The two seats are arranged asymmetrically to provide sufficient shoulder room.
Citroën does not forget the storage spaces which are cleverly distributed where every corner of the passenger compartment has been exploited to the maximum, such as the canvases stretched at the bottom of the doors which create a tote of "beach" inspiration or the storage area. passenger side accommodating cabin size luggage and a handbag.
