Overview
- Dacia unveiled the second‑generation Spring on Tuesday, September 8, 2026, confirming assembly in Slovenia and reported European pricing below €20,000 with Italy starting at €17,900.
- The Spring uses a 27.5 kWh lithium‑iron‑phosphate (LFP) battery paired with a 60 kW front motor for a quoted WLTP range of about 250 km and modest performance aimed at city driving.
- Charging is focused on home use with a standard AC charger and an optional 50 kW DC fast‑charge pack that Dacia says can take the battery from about 15% to 80% in roughly 28 minutes.
- The car is larger than the outgoing model at 3.85 m long and 1.74 m wide and offers 337 litres of boot space, expanding to 1,283 litres with the rear seats folded, to boost everyday practicality.
- Built on Renault Group’s RG‑EV small platform and developed in under two years, the Spring is the first of four planned Dacia EVs to 2030 and signals a push to compete with low‑cost imports while Renault Group reports lower lifecycle CO2 versus comparable petrol cars.
