I really want one. It looks perfect for pootling to the shops.

I'm on the waiting list for the Ami. Ridiculously keenly priced, for an electric 2nd car for pootling to the shops.

Omg, we could start a shop pootling army of cute.

They're definitely interesting but that top speed of 28mph, yikes! I'd not be enjoying it once there were a few cars behind me and my foot was to the floor.

That is exactly the target market they are aiming for, plus 16 year olds going to college and work etc.
At the price they are aiming for, it’ll sell

Needs a full car license in the UK. There's definitely a need for affordable EVs but I don't see masses of takers for this one, it's just too limited.

I've half a mind to get Tiswos a Piaggio Ape in fewer than eight years time. The issue is that at 16 one can't carry a pillion, so in order to pick me up from Liverpool I would have to hide under a tarp on the back, but I don't know what I would be doing in Liverpool that late at night at 42

Here’s a faster looking one for MarkG. His can be the SuperPootler.

Light Quadricycles are legal at 16 aren’t they?

I can 'see' at least 3 different 'faces ' on that vehicle.

It is very reminiscent of one of my son's favourite pull-back-and-go cars.

And I kinda like the idea of it.
