Chip tuning for Citroen AMI 5.5 kWh 8 hp ECU
Citroen AMI (2020) 5.5 kWh 8 hp — mass-market petrol engine of the passenger segment of the Stellantis group (Франция, 1919). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 8 to 9 hp (+1 hp, +12%) and torque from 40 to 45 Nm (+5 Nm). A 2020 petrol engine — the latest era of encrypted firmware; OBD access is available on production units, Bench on sport models.
Citroen has a history of innovation, from hydropneumatic suspension to front-wheel drive. Citroen shares platforms and engines with Peugeot, Opel/Vauxhall and DS within Stellantis. Citroen is part of the Stellantis group (formerly PSA Peugeot Citroen). Modern Citroen petrol engines use Tricore ECUs, often requiring Bench. Low-output Citroen petrol engines are naturally aspirated city units, so the gain is modest. The Citroen petrol range is shared with Peugeot and Opel within Stellantis.
The Citroen community in France and Western Europe has a large pool of Stage files. ECUs are standardised across Stellantis, so Citroen files often work on Peugeot/Opel/DS. Modern Citroens use Tricore TPROT protection, so a Bench read is required. On naturally aspirated Citroen engines, the main effect is on throttle response. Low-output Citroen engines are city units, and Stage 1 is safe.
