Customer reviews for Dacia SpringDacia Spring according to those who use it on a daily basis

Easy to drive good all round vision wish the battery was bigger tbh but generally I love my little car

I love the vehicle and all, my only issue is that I struggle with the small battery life.

So smooth and easy to drive but could do with a mirror on passenger side sun visor

Great little car

75 plate totally compatible for city life style if it could produce what it offers,,constant sensor faults safety drive deactivate whilst driving,very poor balancing on the steering when changing direction,,straight steering is beautiful but Turing’s and taking corners the car does not seem to hold the road very well battery can never decide if it’s charged or flat I’ve drove under a mile and it’s dropped 60% sometimes taking keys out of ignition and the engine continues to run and when I lock it at night it continues to drain the battery.

I could go on!!! It’s been returned ito have software updates but problem still persist and are becoming worse so sadly to say as lovely this car is on paper it’s completely different behind the wheel snd what a shame..:,

Quality control is non-existent, stated range is a fabrication. Tyres, although legal are dangerously lacking in grip. Too many faults to list but main ones include:

Heater essentially non-functional

Infotainment random in operation and loses memory, occasional non-start up of screen at all

Massive amounts of condensation in car

3.4miles/kWh not acceptable

Absolutely outstanding!! My Dacia Spring Extreme is without doubt my best all round car to date! I say that having owned many a top brand (Audi/VW/Volvo) over the years. It just does everything i want and need in a car. Being my first EV i can say without reservation it is truly remarkable! The range is absolutely fine. Some say to little but for mine and id say most people's regular routine it works. To the gym, shopping, family, social, it does it all. I charge on my three pin socket every three days to give me the power/range o need. As for the specifics around performance. Again, ive owned and driven many a performance car but the Dacia gives a punchy and spirited driving.experience. 0 to 30 is rapid! Over and above is more than adequate given the power of the motor. All the way up to motorway speeds it does the job. The tech inside is exceptional and provides me with all the modern essentials. I know it will be superb in the winter with the skinny tyres. Ill feel confident in snow without worry. So all in all id give the Dacia Spring Extreme a 10/10! Quite something id say!! and it takes a lot to impress me! Enough said. Thank you Dacia, ill be enjoying this fine car for the next 3 years. Keep up the great work!

I've had my new 2025 Spring since March and I find it really suits my needs being on the Isle Of Man, it easily keeps up with everyday traffic and its quite satisfying beating tail gaters off at the traffic lights with the torquey motor. The battery range isn't an issue for me, In the winter I was charging the car once a week and now in the summer I'm getting two weeks between charges.

Bad points are: the infotainment system sometimes doesn't start up when getting into the car, I have to reset it at least once a week, quite annoying.

The fact you can put it in neutral whilst moving is not right either, I did this by accident when I first got the car and because the brake needs to be pressed to select drive you have to pull over to re-select drive.

Headlights could be much better but I'm rarely out after dark tbh.

Bit more adjustability on the drivers seat would be better.

All in all its a smart and nippy little car that is surprisingly good fun to drive given its price.

The cars itself is great. Relatively quiet, nippy upto 40mph and I'm averaging 6.8mpkw far above what anyone else I know with an EV does.

But I have encountered several quality control issues. The cabin's narrow design results in my shoulder being in contact with the door, and the vehicle frequently displays a "driver fatigue system error."

A significant safety concern arose when the rear bench seat would not latch back into its upright position. To fix this, I had a mechanic adjust the mounting brackets. The logistics of a dealership visit were difficult; finding a day off work to accommodate the 60-mile round trip and the full-day commitment meant I would have needed to schedule an appointment three weeks out, which wasn't feasible.

My wife is looking to trade her Duster in for a Bigster in the next few months and I am hoping none of these issues will be present in the more expensive Bigster.

For a small cheap car, overall it's excellent. I purchased the Extreme spec which has almost all features you'd find on more expensive vehicles.

Between the fantastic price, it's incredible economy, the brilliant regenerative braking it suits my daily needs, reducing the mileage and wear and tear on my van. It also doesn't

feel like a small car inside.

The only flaws I can find to date, the narrow wheelbase rolls on truck ruts on carriageways and motorways, the torque from the motors when turning and accelerating can almost lock the steering wheel having to use force to straighted the wheels when the steering is otherwise light, the cruise control is very harsh and doesn't replicate the eco mode and has a harsh on/off acceleration approach making the car jolt.

In summary, ideal, cheap, economical run around
