The Dacia Spring is an affordable electric car with a UK starting price under £15,000. Its electric range is 140 miles from a 26.8-kilowatt-hour LFP battery. The test car, an Extreme model, costs slightly under £17,000. It has a 64-horsepower engine, with 0 to 62 mph in 13.7 seconds. The car is meant for city use, being around 3.7 meters long, similar in size to a Hyundai i10 or Kia Picanto. The boot has 308 liters of space. The rear seats are a single piece that folds down. There's a single windscreen wiper. The highest spec model gets a 10-inch touchscreen with navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. Electrically controlled and heated side mirrors are also included. Lower spec models lack the touchscreen, but still include digital driver's read-out, automatic lights, rear parking sensors, air conditioning, and cruise control. The interior is simple, durable, and has bronze and white colored accents. It comes with normal rotary controls for the heating. Rear passenger space is not a highlight. Rear seats have a simple door locking system like those in the 90s. The Dacia Spring uses a Renault platform converted from an ICE car. It will rapid charge up to 30 kilowatts, which would charge from 20-80% in 45 minutes. A full charge on a 7-kilowatt home charger takes around 5-6 hours, and 12-13 hours with a standard three-pin socket. A vehicle to load charge is available on the Extreme model. Its top speed is 78 mph. The Spring has a one-star Euro NCAP rating, owing to less driver assistance systems, and better safety and crash structures and systems can be found in a used EV instead. It does have a lane keep assist. The car weighs less than a ton, improving efficiency. Around-town driving feels good, with easy modulation of the electric throttle. Wind noise is present but not a major concern. The big question is whether it is worth it to buy, given the competition with the Citroen eC3, which is expected to be around the same monthly price. In the used market there is better value. It comes down to what a buyer prioritizes.
