If you live in a city and you want a new electric car capable of doing short trips in relative comfort, the Dacia Spring is well worth considering. However, if you do longer journeys, think twice. It’s not as composed as rivals at higher speeds, and its limited range and slow charging rate prevent it from being an all-in-one bargain like the Citroën ë-C3 and MG4 EV.
A claimed 0-62mph time of 14 seconds doesn’t sound quick but the Spring is punchier than you would expect at speeds up to 40mph. It will even sit at motorway speeds for short periods of time.
At What Car?, we believe that no one should overpay for their new car, which is why we partnered with Autotrader to bring the biggest selection of discounted new cars available in the UK
