The Dacia Spring offers surprising practicality, low running costs, and a fun driving experience\u2014all at a price that\u2019s hard to beat. But is it too good to be true?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h3 data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"><strong>What is it?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Dacia Spring is Ireland\u2019s most affordable electric vehicle, priced from just \u20ac16,990. A compact city EV, it promises 225km of range, low running costs, and surprising practicality.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>Styling?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Despite its low price, the Dacia Spring doesn\u2019t scream \u201ccheap.\u201d It borrows rugged styling cues from larger Dacia models like the Duster and Sandero, featuring LED daytime running lights, sculpted bumpers, and a raised stance that give it a crossover-like appeal. While it\u2019s small, it avoids looking like a budget city car.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>Under the Bonnet?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Spring is powered by a 26.8kWh lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) battery, offering a WLTP range of 225km. Two power outputs are available: 45hp and 65hp (as tested). DC fast charging is capped at 48kW, meaning longer charge times compared to rivals, but its excellent efficiency means fewer stops than expected.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/spring_main2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-24024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/spring_main2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/spring_main2.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/spring_main2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/spring_main2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/spring_main2-321x214.jpg 321w, https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/spring_main2-140x94.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>What about inside?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, it\u2019s cheap\u2014but it\u2019s not without charm. Hard plastics dominate, but clever design touches and a 10-inch touchscreen (with Apple CarPlay &amp; Android Auto) help elevate the experience. The front seats are comfortable, though rear space is tight and best suited for kids or short journeys. A 308-litre boot is surprisingly spacious for a car this size, beating some larger EVs.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>On the Road?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In the city, the Spring shines. Its lightweight design, nimble steering, and compact dimensions make it a breeze to drive. The 65hp version adds a bit more punch, making urban commutes enjoyable. However, it struggles on motorways, where body roll and limited noise insulation become apparent.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>And Safety?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Safety remains a concern. The original Dacia Spring received a one-star Euro NCAP rating, and while updates have added features like speed limit assist and lane-keep assist, it\u2019s unclear if this will significantly improve its score. Buyers should weigh up cost savings against potential safety compromises.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>Rivals?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Dacia Spring faces stiff competition in the budget EV segment:<\/p>\n<ul data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>Citroen e-C3 (\u20ac23,400)<\/li>\n<li>Fiat 500e (\u20ac24,995)<\/li>\n<li>Hyundai Inster (\u20ac18,995)<\/li>\n<li>MG4 (\u20ac26,995)<\/li>\n<li>Mini Electric (\u20ac36,845)<\/li>\n<li>Nissan Leaf (\u20ac23,495)<\/li>\n<li>Peugeot e-208 (\u20ac30,570)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While some rivals offer more refinement and range, none match the Spring\u2019s price point.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>Will it break the bank?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>With a starting price of \u20ac16,990 (\u20ac19,990 as tested), the Spring is the cheapest EV in Ireland. Running costs are minimal, and road tax is just \u20ac120. While charging speeds are slow, its efficiency helps keep energy costs down.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>Verdict<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Dacia Spring isn\u2019t for everyone. If you need a long-range EV or plan frequent road trips, this isn\u2019t the car for you. However, for city dwellers, first-time EV buyers, or those looking for a practical second car, it\u2019s tough to beat the value it offers. In an era where many EVs are getting bigger and pricier, the Spring feels like a refreshing, no-nonsense alternative.<\/p>\n<p>Cheap, cheerful, and unapologetically honest \u2013 a rare thing in today\u2019s market.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>Facts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul data-spread=\"false\">\n<li><strong>Starting Price:<\/strong> \u20ac16,990 (\u20ac19,990 as tested)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Engine:<\/strong> Electric<\/li>\n<li><strong>Transmission:<\/strong> Automatic<\/li>\n<li><strong>CO\u2082 \/ Motor Tax:<\/strong> 0g\/km \/ \u20ac120<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Geraldine Herbert<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking for an affordable, efficient, and city-friendly EV?
