Citroën was quite bold in manufacturing the small Citroën Ami, a small electric car that has only two seats and was made for a specific audience. The company is now bringing the European vehicle to the US market.
The vehicle will be part of a company's subscription-sharing fleet in the US. It's about the company Free2Move, which provides sharing services.
