The Dacia Spring is 100% electric and easy to charge at home or at public charging points. It features improved DC charging, achieving a 20% to 80% charge in approximately 30 minutes, and offers a 10” multimedia system on top-trim models. As a 4-seater city car, it remains one of the UK’s most affordable EVs, distinguishing itself with a 308-litre boot capacity and competitive monthly payments.
Dacia is a Romanian brand that has built up a reputation for well-built, affordable and robust models. The Spring makes essential electric mobility accessible, offering an affordable, practical, and simple electric car for urban and everyday use. It's uniquely positioned as the most affordable and lightweight 4-seater electric vehicle on the market. While it shares the "no-frills" philosophy and rugged Stepway-style aesthetics of the petrol-powered Sandero, the Spring is distinguished by its sub-1,000kg kerb weight and a specialised EV platform.
It gains significant appeal over Dacia’s larger offerings like the Duster or Jogger by introducing Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology in the Extreme trim, allowing you to power external devices directly from the car’s battery - a feature currently unique to the Spring within the Dacia lineup. Positioned as the entry-level gateway to the brand, the Spring is designed specifically for city-dwellers and multi-car households looking for the lowest possible running costs. Its uniqueness lies in its efficiency; by utilising a compact 26.8kWh battery paired with new, more powerful 65hp or 100hp motors, it achieves a range of roughly 140 miles without the weight or expense of a massive battery pack.
The Dacia Spring is available in 2 main trims in the UK market: Expression and Extreme. The Expression trim offers standard features like air conditioning and rear parking sensors, while the higher Extreme trim adds a larger touchscreen, a rear-view camera, power-adjustable mirrors, and distinctive copper-coloured design accents. You can browse our offers across them all above. If you need to narrow down the results then you can use one of our handy search bar features.

The ideal driver for a Dacia Spring lease is a budget-conscious city dweller, first-time EV owner, or multi-car household looking for an ultra-affordable, no-frills electric runaround. Drivers of the Spring prioritise compact dimensions for easy parking and low running costs over long-range capabilities or luxury finishes. It’s a perfect match for those with short daily commutes who want the simplest, lightest, and most efficient entry point into electric motoring.
The Dacia Spring sits in a unique position as one of Europe’s most affordable EVs, often compared to other small electric city cars. Key competitors include the Citroën Ami (for strictly urban use), the Fiat 500e, and the Renault Twingo E-Tech, as well as the Hyundai Inster, which all aim to provide electrified urban mobility at a lower price point.
Leasing a Spring is a good option for many UK drivers, as it allows you to transition to electric when it may otherwise be unaffordable. You can also tailor the agreement to suit your needs, such as the length of the contract and initial deposit amount.
Our support team will be available to help you every step of the way, and we make returning the car to us as hassle free as possible when the contract comes to an end.
The exact cost of a Spring car lease will vary depending on a few different factors and there are 2 key areas where your decisions impact the price.
The first is the specific car you choose, whereby trim level, additional options and even the paint colour (if there’s a premium option) will impact it.
The second is the contract terms, whereby the length of the lease, the mileage allowance, the inclusion of a maintenance package, and if you’re leasing as an individual or a business will influence the price you pay. Additionally, if you pay a larger initial rental then the subsequent monthly payments will be reduced as you'll pay more of the total lease cost at the start of the agreement.
The 2026 updated Dacia Spring (Expression and Extreme trims) now features a 40kW DC onboard charger, which reduces the 20% to 80% charging time to approximately 29 minutes.
