Following the dazzling success in 2022 of the online sale of 50 “My Ami Buggy Ultra-Limited Series” in France, Citroen now offers a new special edition of 1,000 units which will be available in ten countries: France including the French overseas departments, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Greece, Portugal, the United Kingdom, Luxembourg, Morocco and Turkey.
Citroen “My Ami Buggy” asserts its adventurous look by retaining the Khaki tinted exterior colour and the black protective elements, such as reinforced bumpers, skid plates, headlamp bezels, wheel arches, rocker panels and its rear spoiler, all of which give it a muscular appearance.
The “My Ami Buggy” personality also comes from the vitality and freshness provided by its bright yellow dots which feature on the exterior (embossing on the front panel and directional arrows on the wheel arches) and on the interior (storage bins, opening straps and bag hooks, stitching on the seats and carpets).
Citroen has gone one step further with the design of this new version, both inside and out.
This second limited series is underpinned by the same principle: no doors and no roof – that way, you can enjoy your leisure time and feel as close to nature as possible, together with a pleasant sense of freedom. Nevertheless, to be protected from any bad weather, protective components have been added and modified.
New plastic covers with zips have been designed to protect the occupants from the outside. This is in addition to the roof protection to provide an almost closed passenger compartment in wind, cold or rain. For everyday use, when occupants want to take a breath of fresh air, simply roll the covers towards the rear near the seats and then fix them on the door pillars thanks to snaps. In the middle of summer, when they are not needed, they can be stored in a garage.
A new roof closure system has been created to use it more easily. It is a black waterproof canopy that now has a zipper, so it is more practical and easier to handle. Fully integrated into the design thanks to a roof cover that can be stretched considerably, this fabric gives the whole vehicle a coherent style. It is also less subject to air intakes when driving. It can be rolled up and attached to the rear of the vehicle with snap buttons.
The door and roof frames have been added to secure the clear tarpaulins and soft top so that they blend seamlessly with the bodywork for a neat finish.
At the front, the roof frame is extended to form a sun visor. It underlines the leisure aspect of “My Ami Buggy”.
The gate closure system is identical to the previous version one. Only the shape has evolved into a design reminiscent of the door-bottom capsules of other Ami versions, highlighting the relationship that “My Ami Buggy” enjoys with the rest of the range.
The instrument unit, still positioned on the steering column housing, features a new arched cap, giving it a retro feel.
This new edition of “My Ami Buggy” features an element of the acid yellow luggage line unveiled in December 2021 on the concept vehicle of the same name. A unique and ingenious decorative item, the mobile bag fits into the hollowed-out shape in the centre of the steering wheel. It is held in place by clip-on rucksack straps that wrap around the two arches. The additional zippered storage compartment can be used to store personal belongings and can be carried by the driver when they leave the cabin.
The “Ultimate Ears Boom” is a lightweight Bluetooth speaker that can easily be taken anywhere. Music lovers will appreciate the powerful and immersive 360° sound. Waterproof and sturdy, with a 15-hour battery life, it will provide musical accompaniment for your most memorable of moments. Inside “My Ami Buggy”, it slips into a special housing on the dashboard, just next to the steering wheel. Furthermore, future “My Ami Buggy” customers will receive products related to the “My Ami Buggy” line.
“My Ami Buggy” will go on sale on June 20th at a price of €10,490 including VAT.
