Or be built in China...
That’s a good idea! Literally has the battery capacity of 2 scooters which could carry 2 removable batteries. Hopefully Citroën is listening...
28 mph was specifically for French sans permit laws - and it stays that way for other countries where it’s treated like a full sized car. The Ami when derestricted can do 50 mph https://youtu.be/vnxkr1wh5I0
I’m crossing my fingers tight that Citroen will soon improve the Ami which many owners recording their ownership journey have told.
The cold burn of reality will come for you eventually
But yet you still lecture on buying a car, and throw fortune’s out of the window with depreciation....
Economically illiterate your hole!

Should’ve told them to find a G-Wiz or an e-bike. Or if it’s a shiny toy, then saving a classic car like aand spending the small fortune they're willing to piss away on an EV conversion.
Whenever the topic of battery manufacturing and mining comes up again and again, it’s never about the critiquing capitalism is it? Nor the supply chains of cobalt to remove sulphur from oil refining, the production of oil itself, steel, Hyundai using child labour etc etc.
Pretty sure that was demonstrated back in 2012

Is Recycling an Industry that should be for-profit and rely on a free economy of available used/trash materials?
It's almost criminal, isn't it?
Remember, back in the 2000s CARB wanted to plan and mandate 5% annual sales by 2005to be electric/zero emission vehicles. But we all know what happened to them soon enough.
Where those hybrids the same series/parallel as the Escape?
They’re probably too paranoid of being a victim of their own success?
