Video Summary
Here is the summary of the YouTube video review:- The Spring could be the most affordable new electric car in Britain, priced at around £15,000.
- The car looks fun and not cheap, despite Dacia's image.
- The Citroen eC3 will be a rival to Dacia's Spring.
- It features Dacia's latest design language with a new logo, slim headlights, and Y-shaped rear lights.
- All of the body panels have been changed except for the roof.
- No chrome pieces were used, possibly for environmental reasons and cost-saving.
- There are six body colours available, including a Brick Red and Beige Safari.
- Trim on lower door panels can be easily replaced if damaged.
- Its chunky styling disguises the fact that it's a small car, about the size of a VW Up.
- The interior has been redesigned with a nicer look, featuring white trim and best-in-class storage.
- There is an open glove box, u-clips, and no big centre console.
- Physical buttons are available for climate control.
- Back seat legroom feels compact.
- Boot space is larger than on a Peugeot e-208.
- Seats can be folded nearly flat for extra room.
- A frunk can be specified as an extra.
- Official range is 137 miles on a full charge, but a 65 horsepower engine takes 14 seconds to reach 62 mph, while a 45 horsepower one takes 19.7 seconds.
- There are 3 trim and equipment levels, essential, expression and extreme.
- Charging speed is relatively slow, taking 4 hours on a home wallbox or 45 minutes from 10-80 % on a DC charger.
- Vehicle-to-load adapter is available as an extra and will allow appliances to be charged.
