    This video had a better plotline and drama than most modern films.

    Always hate to hear all the buzzing and beeping when you aren’t home. Like they say your mileage may vary 🏁😁👍

      Hi Lloyd, nothing worse that a warning bleep from an engine check or ABS light. Usually means something expensive.

    I only get near full range, about 44 miles. If i reverse my journeys exactly. I go up a couple of steep hills regularly, but always go back the same way. More random journeys are impossible to judge energy wise.

      Best I have ever done was 38 miles to the 3 mile warning.

    Yup, that's definitely a Ramp. Under different conditions, that would have been a lovely run and starting out under those conditions, you wouldn't expect to need the genset. Man that was Stoatin' at your place.

    Hi I’ve just bought my ami and absolutely love it! I’ve been eating your channel for some time. Have you had any water ingress issues?

      I sometimes get a little water tricking through the door seal. Glad the car has plastic floors and rubber mats.

      @@DougsShed Can't wait! Also, Microlino is now available to buy in the UK. I put an order in and cancelled the Citroen Ami 😅 Top battery range is 178 miles.

      @@POVDrivingTour Unfortunately the Microlino is way too expensive. Dacia Spring is more in my budget range.

    There seems to be room for 280ah cells which would more than double the range

      Unfortunately the Ami's battery and control system work on a canbus system and hacking them is beyond my pay grade.

    Perhaps the wipers use up the battery range.

    Inclines use power, and reduce range... DUH...

    really? are you new? get a bigger better battery, all that pretty car ain't worth the dust it's made out of without a serious power source, it's really the engine, the electric motor is just the transmission to the ground of the batteries power. so spend your money on the battery or save and carry extra batteries.
