What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?
In Europe Dacia Spring Electric 45 (2022-2024) has a CCS Type 2 charge port.
You can charge it at home using a standard domestic socket or plug into any public AC charging station using the right cable. Keep in mind that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 6.6 kW, which translates to approximately 43 km of range added per hour of charging.
For quicker charging, consider using a compatible DC fast-charging station. The car boasts a maximum charging rate of 30 kW, but remember that battery temperature and charge level can influence the actual speed you'll experience.
In 2022, Dacia offered the CCS charging port for DC fast charging as an option. However, with the introduction of the 65 trim in 2023, Dacia removed this option entirely from the 45 trim.
