full throttle!
This is the Dacia Spring...
... the cheapest 4-seater EV in Europe
for about €18.000 you get...
... AC and DC charging, up to 30 kW
build quality is not the sturdiest
it has a single electric motor powering the front wheels
no frunk...
... but a lot of room to smuggle stuff
LED daylight running lights
cute 14" wheels,
cute 14" wheels, disc brakes upfront, drum brakes in the back
our car has the 'Orange Pack' option
this color is called 'Lightning Grey KQE'
rear windows can only be opened from the rear seat
leg room in the back is...
... not enough for any adult with legs
rear seat rest folds down in one piece
push the black button to open the trunk
rear seat down gives you 600 liters of cargo space
metal panels feel light
the car weights only 970 kg
black TEP seats with orange stitching
you start it like a combustion engine car...
... but no sound when you turn the key
Drive
seats are not height adjustable
so POV camera might be a bit high sometimes
Reverse
our car has the optional reverse camera
the sound you hear is for pedestrian safety
3 easy knobs for heating / ventilation
our car has the optional 7" touch screen
the Dacia Spring is a city car...
... and is perfect for slow city traffic
it has one front wiper...
... that wants to be heard
the red blocks mean I'm flooring the throttle
so with 44 hp, it is not the fastest
the 27,4 kWh battery will give you a range of 230 km (WLTP)
in city mode it'll do 305 km (WLTP)
it's okay to honk, this is Brussels
hard plastics
adjusting headlight height
some options not available on the Spring
it has a top speed of 125 km/h...
in ECO mode the top speed is 100 km/h...
... fast enough for the city.
front power windows are operated from the center console
great city feature is the 9.6 meter turning radius
this is full power!
30 km/h
50 km/h
60 km/h
70 km/h
80 km/h!
running out of road...
never made it to 100 km/h...
because the Dacia Spring needs almost 20 seconds to get there :)
THANKS FOR WATCHING!
