If you had told me five years ago that you could buy an electric car for less than £15,000, I would have laughed in your face. But here we are in 2021, and the Dacia Spring is the UK’s cheapest electric car on the market, priced at just £14,995.
Now, before you start scoffing and saying that it must be a complete piece of rubbish, let me tell you that the Dacia Spring is actually a surprisingly capable little machine. Sure, it may not have all the bells and whistles of a Tesla or a Porsche Taycan, but it gets the job done in a no-nonsense, practical way.
The Dacia Spring may not win any beauty contests, with its boxy design and simple interior, but that’s not what this car is all about. It’s about getting from A to B in an eco-friendly and cost-effective manner. And in that respect, the Spring excels.
With a range of up to 140 miles on a single charge, the Dacia Spring is perfect for city dwellers or those with shorter commutes. It may not be the ideal choice for long road trips, but for everyday use, it’s more than capable.
Now, I know what you’re thinking – how can a car this cheap be any good? Well, let me tell you, Dacia has a reputation for producing no-frills, reliable vehicles that won’t break the bank. And the Spring is no exception.
So, if you’re in the market for an electric car but don’t want to spend a small fortune, the Dacia Spring is definitely worth considering. It may not be the flashiest car on the road, but it gets the job done – and that’s all that really matters in the end.
hey all, been looking into the dacia spring and its kinda interesting. does anyone know how it drives in the city? think it could handle daily commutes well?
Absolutely love that there’s a move towards more affordable EVs. The Dacia Spring seems like a great option for people to reduce their carbon footprint without breaking the bank.
True, it’s a start. But still wondering about the long-term reliability of such budget-friendly EVs.
lol at everyone getting excited over a car that can barely hit freeway speeds. Guess if you love watching paint dry, the Dacia Spring is right up your alley
For families looking to save on costs, the Dacia Spring seems like a solid choice. It’s not about flashiness, but rather practicality and efficiency. Could be perfect for city driving.
140 miles range? not gonna cut it for me. need something that won’t have me hunting for a charger every day. this ain’t it, chief.
Living in the city, the Dacia Spring matches perfectly with what I need. The size and range make it ideal for daily errands and commutes. Plus, the price point is unbeatable.
Sure, it’s cheap, but you get what you pay for, right? I’ll believe it’s a good deal when I see how it holds up over time. Until then, I’m keeping my expectations low.
Interesting to see cars like the Dacia Spring pop up. Makes electric cars more accessible to everyone. But I’m curious about the tech inside. How does it compare to other EVs?
finally, an ev that doesn’t require taking out a second mortgage. gonna keep an eye on the dacia spring, sounds like a steal for the price.
Has anyone experienced maintenance issues with the Dacia Spring? With such a low price point, I wonder about its long-term durability and repair costs.
Good question. Generally, EVs have fewer moving parts than ICE vehicles, so maintenance might be less of an issue. However, it’s always wise to check reviews and long-term tests.
