4th Gear: Stellantis Will Let You Rent A Citroën Ami In DC

The Citroën Ami — a tiny EV some people think is adorable yet personally reminds me of Hans Moleman — is headed for American roads. Free2Move, a car rental service operated by Stellantis and active in Washington DC, teased that it will import the Ami on LinkedIn and Twitter. At this point, that’s really all we know.

The Ami is actually considered a quadricycle in Europe, with an eight horsepower motor, 43 miles of range, and a top speed of 28 mph. In France, the Ami can be driven by anyone over the age of 14, which makes it kind of novel as a short-range, rentable urban commuter. In an American city? I’m curious as to how it’ll be classified to achieve legality in the U.S.
