With over a million units sold of all models, the Ami 6 is a classic on French roads, with a very famous driver in the person of Yvonne de Gaulle. The vehicle was created in 1961 by Citroën CEO Pierre Bercot and Flaminio Bertoni, the brilliant creator of the 2CV and DS front-wheel drives. The idea was to take up the principle of the inverted rear window initiated on the American Packard Balboa X prototype of 1953 and carried over to the Ford Anglia of 1959. The result was an instantly recognizable silhouette. Described as the "Super 2CV", it uses the same chassis but with a larger volume, increasing its mass by more than 80 kg. It was also equipped with an engine 83% larger than that of the Deudeuch. Production ceased in 1969, to be replaced by the Ami 8.
