Fiat Topolino or Citroën Ami: the batteries compared
What the advert doesn’t say: capacity by version, the manufacturer’s warranty, and what a failure would cost.
The essentials
- Battery: the same maximum capacity, 5.4 kWh.
- Battery warranty: the same terms, 3 years or 25,000 miles.
- Module-by-module repair: feasible on Citroën Ami, not on Fiat Topolino.

Before you choose
A table compares models; you buy a car. Capacity depends on the version, the warranty on the date of first registration, and the state of health on the life the battery has had. The checker answers for one specific car: remaining warranty, expected state of health, cost of a failure.
