Ligier, a French reference in the market for cars without a license, has decided to launch itself into the segment of light quadricycles. To compete with the Citroën AMI, the brand has just announced the launch of the Myli from May 2023 throughout Europe.
Since the thundering launch of the Citroën AMI in May 2020, many car manufacturers have decided to launch themselves into the buoyant segment of electric cars without a license.
Today, the competitors of the chevron brand cart are legion. Renault recently presented its Mobilize Duo, the Kate K1 is also expected in 2023, not to mention the Eli Zero from the American Eli Electric Vehicles. Recently, we also mentioned the Luvly O, a small electric car that will be manufactured as a kit!
And strangely, one would think that Ligier, the French reference in the car without a license, would have quickly launched into the race. Finally, we had to wait until September 2022, with the presentation of the Mylihis very first electric cart without a license.
As the brand has just announced in a press release, the Mily will enter the European market in May 2023. “Manufactured in our factories in France, Mily reflects our commitment to inventing and manufacturing innovative and attractive models in favor of mobility accessible to all”. writes François Ligier, president of Ligier Group.
A modern, compact and customizable look
Accessible from the age of 14, the Mily will be offered in four finishes. To attract young customers, Ligier has bet on a compact and modern look, see sporty on the high-end R.EBEL finish.
The customization options are also numerous, between 14″ and 15″ ALU rims, interior inserts in body colors, colored lines on the roof, and specific designs for the bumper, grille and the cover for each finish. We count in total 8 different colorsranging from red to green through blue, gray and black.
In the passenger compartment, the Mily has a sleek dashboard housing a 10″ touchscreen tablet, the largest on the market for a car without a license according to Ligier (only on the E.PIC finish). There will also be a rear view camera.
Three batteries up to 192 km range
According to Ligier, the Mily will carry three different batteries depending on the finish:
- A 4.14 kWh battery for 63 km of autonomy
- An 8.28 kWh battery for 123 km of autonomy
- A 12.42 kWh battery for 192 km of autonomy
The brand adds that an Eco Driving mode is present on all models to improve autonomy by reinforcing regenerative braking. Regarding charging, the Mily can be plugged into a standard 230 V mains socket. 100% will be reached in 2h30 (depending on battery size).
Regarding the engine, the Mily is powered by a 5.6 kW electric block, a little less than 8 hp, for a torque of 10 Nm. The maximum speed will be 45 km/h. As for the prices, it will be necessary to count between €12,499 and €17,099 according to the finishes, or for rent between 99 and 177 € per month. As a reminder, orders for the Mily will begin in France from the beginning of May 2023.
