UBITRICITY
To celebrate the launch of Ami 100% electric in the UK, Citroen has partnered with charging provider ubitricity, a member of the Shell Group, to make owning and using Ami 100% electric more accessible to those who do not have off-street parking. As part of Citroen’s ‘Power To The People’ philosophy – aiming to make electrification accessible by offering every kind of electric for all kinds of people – the first 2,000 UK customers of Ami 100% electric will receive three months of free charging across ubitricity’s network of more than 5,400 lamppost chargers in Greater London and in a growing number of locations across the UK.
In Europe, the partnership is focusing on making the switch to electric easier as more ubitricity chargers are becoming available in a growing number of countries across Europe for Citroen’s growing EV fleet, and the partnership will aim to accelerate this growth further.
ubitricity’s network is focused on installing electric vehicle chargers in existing infrastructure such as street lights. This offers a quick and easy way for urban areas to roll out a dense charging network without long planning phases. On-street EV charging makes it easier for those without access to off-street parking to make the switch to electric. Users can start a charging session either by scanning a QR code on the lamppost or by using a designated app.

Customers of Ami 100% electric will be able to purchase a comprehensive service package with their Ami. My Ami Care gives Ami customers complete peace of mind during ownership and covers routine servicing, and maintenance, and includes an extended vehicle warranty, battery warranty and extended breakdown cover depending on their chosen package length.
