As consumers search for cleaner and more affordable transportation options, the market share of electric cars continues to rise. Nevertheless, many current models of electric vehicles are prohibitively expensive, have short ranges, and few charging alternatives. And so Dacia, a Romanian automaker owned by the French-German Renault Group, has released the Dacia Spring, an affordable and environmentally friendly all-electric vehicle.
The Dacia Spring is a compact city car that takes cues from larger SUVs. It has a sporty yet playful exterior design, a roomy cabin, a huge trunk, and many safety and convenience amenities. It has a range of 225 km in the WLTP cycle (295 km in WLTP City), which is enough for a week of urban driving. In addition, its small battery (26.8 kWh) can be fully charged in less than five hours via wallbox or in under an hour via a fast charger.
The low price of the Spring, however, is what truly sets it apart. With a starting price in Europe of less than 20,000 euros, it is the most affordable fully electric vehicle currently available (including batteries). The electric motor and battery are guaranteed for eight years or 120,000 kilometers with no required maintenance, thus reducing operating expenses. And it may take advantage of the many government rebates and tax credits worldwide for electric automobiles.
The Dacia Spring electric car is designed to accommodate private buyers and new modes of transportation like ridesharing and last-mile delivery. Each market group can choose from a Dacia Spring tailored to their needs with various trim levels, optional packages, and accessories. The Dacia Spring Cargo, for instance, is a utility variant that swaps out the back seats for a flat loading area with a capacity of 800 liters and a payload of 325 kilograms. Car-sharing companies can take advantage of the Spring Car-Sharing version's smartphone accessibility, remote fleet management, and geolocation features.
Dacia Spring is the culmination of two unique areas of competence: Dacia's ability to supply essential cars at the appropriate price and Renault Group's expertise in creating high-performance and dependable electric vehicles, thanks to its ten years of experience and leadership in this industry. Dacia and the Renault Group's Spring is an effort to make electric mobility more widely available, particularly in congested urban areas where it can help lessen environmental and acoustic burdens.
The Dacia Spring goes above the norm for electric vehicles. This is the way to go for those who wish to experience the joys of electric mobility without breaking the bank. It's also a great way to connect with other motorists who share your interest in sustainability and transportation innovation.
Suppose you are seeking an electric car that is cheap to buy and run, adaptable and practical, elegant and comfortable, safe and trustworthy. In that case, consider buying the cheapest electric car on the market: Dacia Spring.
