As its indirect successor, the Citroen Ami will be used.
The rumors of October 2020 were true. The Citroen C1 has been discontinued. Last examples of this city car are being produced at the Kolin plant in Czech Republic. The C1 has been sold to nearly 1.2 million European customers since its 2005 launch. This small, three- or five-door vehicle will be remembered as one of Europe’s most customizable models.
Between 2005 and 2014, the first generation of C1 was produced. It was available with two engine options: a 1.0-liter gasoline unit or a 1.5-liter diesel. It was a compact vehicle, measuring 135.2 inches (3.435 millimeters) in length, making it an attractive choice for customers living in large, congested cities. Although the second-generation model lost its diesel engine, it was a solid seller and received a 4-star Euro NCAP rating.
The C1 shares its platform, powertrains and many components with both the Peugeot 108, and the previous-generation Toyota Aygo. In effect, the Citroen Ami will replace it. According to the French manufacturer, the C1 will be discontinued due to “changes in traffic usage in cities centers and the desire offer an ultra-affordable electrical solution in response to these new mobility needs.” We are 99.99 per cent certain that Peugeot will also cease production of the 108.
The Aygo is the only model from the trio that survived. The Aygo is now in its third generation, a small-city crossover, and adding an “X” suffix to indicate that. It is now 145.6 inches (3.700 mm) longer than its predecessor. A 1.0-liter gasoline engine with 72 horsepower (53 Kilowatts) & 69 pound-feet of torque (93 Newton-meters), is the only one available.
The Ami, which is the successor to the C1, is an electric vehicle that uses a 5.5-kWh lithium battery pack and has an 8 hp (6kW) motor. The electric quadricycle is capable of traveling up to 43.5 miles (70 km) on a single charge. It can also travel at speeds of 28 miles an hour (45 km per hour)
