What conditions can affect the charging time of an electric car?

Charging time depends on two major factors: battery temperature (influenced by outside temperature), and the type of charger used.

Charging a battery takes longer in colder temperatures.

Dacia electric vehicles can be charged using alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC)*. AC charging is more common, allowing you to charge your vehicle at home with a standard domestic socket. You can optimise this time by installing a Wallbox at home.

If you wish to use public charging stations, DC charging allows you to charge your Spring from 20% to 80% in just 29 minutes**

^{* DC charging available on Spring Expression and Extreme versions.
