Citroën Ami driver rolls over at Monaco's famous hairpin.
, but the tiny EV is not intended for spirited driving. The microcar's odd proportions make it poorly-suited to hard cornering, and going too fast through a hairpin could prove disastrous.

Footage from outside the corner shows more runs of the Ami successfully making the corner at full speed before the rollover. When it finally does roll over, it slides on its side for a few feet before hitting the bollard protecting pedestrians with the back of the car's roof.
At one point, Citroën Amis were going to be available in both Portland and Washington, D.C. as part of a third-party ride sharing program. Free2Move does not list Amis as available for rental in either market on their site today, but, if you can find one in America, please do not try to find the cornering speeds where it will roll over.
