Citroën unveils the diminutive My Ami Cargo

Citroën’s tiny pure-electric Ami will soon be available in van guise. The new My Ami Cargo seems particularly suited to ‘last mile’ deliveries in congested city centres.

Like the car version, it measures just 2.41 metres (7’ 10”) long by 1.39 metres (4’ 6”) wide. However, the passenger seat has been swapped for a seven-part polypropylene cargo module that has a capacity of 260 litres. Up to 140 kg (308 lb) of goods can be carried.

As well as a vertical partition between the driver and load space, other special features include a removable secondary shelf unit, an adjustable floor and secure storage for small items.

The powertrain – which comprises a 5.5 kWh battery pack and an 8 PS (8 bhp / 6 kW) electric motor – is unchanged. Maximum range is 47 miles (75 kilometres), while recharging takes three hours via a domestic socket.

Dealers in France are going to begin accepting My Ami Cargo customer orders next month. There, prices start at €6,490 (after deducting a €900 government grant).

Citroën is currently gauging interest levels before deciding whether or not to import the Ami and My Ami Cargo into the UK.

‘New’ Jensen Interceptor

There’s something very retro-chic about using a classic car as a daily driver, but it’s an activity that comes with the permanent risk that aged mechanicals might expire at any time. Hence the concept of regeneration by substituting ancient components with fresh replacements. Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested. Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
