Dacia Spring Electric: Range, Charging, Price and Boot Space

Spring is a compact four-seat EV built around local journeys, easy parking and simple charging—not long motorway days with no planning.

The short answerThe current Dacia Spring is a four-seat electric city car with up to 140 miles of WLTP combined range. It starts at £11,990 before optional paint, and compatible 40kW DC charging can take it from 20 to 80% in about 29 minutes.

Spring keeps the electric-car brief deliberately small. At 3,701mm long it is easy to manoeuvre, yet it provides four adult seats, a 308-litre boot and useful cabin storage. The trade-off is that its battery and charging are designed mainly around daily life rather than repeated cross-country travel.

Useful figure Current UK specification Why it matters
Price from £11,990, Expression 70 An accessible route into a new EV.
Official range 140 miles WLTP combined Enough for many local routines with charging at home or nearby.
Seats 4 Do not assume a middle rear seat.
Boot 308 litres; up to 1,004 litres Strong for the car’s compact length.
Rapid charge 20–80% in about 29 minutes Requires the compatible 40kW DC specification and suitable charger.

Will 140 miles suit you?

Start with your longest normal day, not an exceptional annual trip. If typical use is commuting, school, shopping and local visits, Spring may only need charging every few days. Motorway speed, winter heating, hills and load reduce real range, so allow a sensible margin.

Charging without overthinking it

A home wallbox is the easiest routine: connect when parked and begin the next day with the charge you need. Public AC charging works while you shop or work. A compatible rapid point is for quicker top-ups, with Dacia quoting 20–80% in 29 minutes. Time varies with battery temperature, charger output and starting level.

Expression or Extreme?

Expression 70 is the lower-cost entry point with air conditioning, rear parking sensors and media control. Extreme 100 increases power and adds a 10-inch multimedia system, parking camera and extra convenience. V2L power-to-object capability is standard on Extreme and Cargo, allowing suitable accessories to draw energy from the car.

The best fit

  • Drivers with predictable local mileage and regular charging.
  • Households wanting a second car that is cheap and easy to park.
  • Buyers who need four seats rather than five.
  • Owners prepared to plan the occasional long journey.
