Dacia Spring pros and cons

Pros and Cons by myEVreview

• great price for an electric car
• very low consumption (but significantly worse in winter)
• nimble in the narrow streets
• good AC charging speed up to 6.6 kW (10-100 % in 4 hours)
• small 26,8 kWh battery provides a range of around 150-200 km in the city
• quite spacious interior, considering the small dimensions of the car (only 3,73 m)

• has a very poor Euro NCAP crash test rating (only 1 star out of 5)
• weak electric motor (33 kW/125 Nm), don't drive it on the motorway often
• originally developed as an ultra-low-cost petrol car
• uncomfortable front seats
• slow DC charging (only 35 kW)
• the smell of low-quality plastics in the interior
• acceleration 100 km/h in a terrible 19 seconds
• rapid charge is a chargeable option
• Spring is much smaller than the ICE Dacia Duster (at a similar price)
• top speed only 125 km/h
• interior soundproofing
• only for city use, really
