The 2026 Dacia Spring Electric is a small electric car for city travel. It is a compact hatchback with five doors. It sits in the entry-level EV segment.
It uses a 24.3 kWh battery with about 140 miles WLTP range. Range is enough for daily city use. Charging includes 7 kW AC for home charging and 40 kW DC fast charging. DC charging can take the battery from 20 to 80 in about 30 minutes.
The Spring’s price is low compared with most electric cars. It suits drivers who need an affordable EV for short trips and city traffic. Alternatives include Renault Twingo Electric and Fiat 500e. The Spring offers less range than a used Nissan Leaf with a larger battery.
