Over all, a very nice town car - easy to drive. Very good acceleration from 0 - 30, which is just what is needed for a town car. It would be nice to be able to completely turn off lane-assist, but not a huge problem, although can be startling at times.
Very disappointed that charging cannot be scheduled, nor can pre-cooling or -heating, unless my Dealer has failed to show me how that can be done.
My wife and I, pensioners, find the Dacia Spring ideal for our lifestyle at a very affordable price.

As a city car it is pretty good. It would be silly to compare this car with a much more expensive long-distance tourer such as a Tesla or a Hyundai Ionic 5. I am able to easily achieve 5.8 miles per kW/hour except when on rare occasions I drive on a motorway.
If there is one thing that could be improved I would suggest the ability to take a DC charge at 100kW rather than 30kW.
The only thing I find frustrating is the My Dacia app on my phone does not seem to integrate well with the car.

Our new Spring is a joy. Charging couldn't be easier. I charge using a cheap overnight tariff from my garage. The majority of our driving these days is local. My wife and I feel comfortable in the front and while there is not a lot of room in the back my two grandchildren are very comfortable. The boot is surprisingly big for a city car. Because we are both getting on in years the automatic, electric vehicle is ideal. Finally the price point is the deal maker. Brings the fun back to driving.

The car is largely perfect for me even my family say so, it even has personality and qwerks something I thought I would miss from my petrol vehicles with its funny located front window buttons and creak in the break when you set off I like these things it makes it feel alive.
A negative is that on certain bumps such as bumps on an uphill the rear suspention feels as though it falls off a cliff.
This is not to take away from its surprising comfort over pot holes and even regular speed humps

I love this car and I love driving it: I like the trim, it looks nice, it’s nippy. It’s cheap to run on a home charger.
The negatives are:
The boot can be difficult to open;
The back windows should open and close from the front AND the back
Mileage is misrepresented - never achieved 140 on a full charge - usually 131/2
Needs better tyres - feel EVERY bump on the road
Connecting to Apple Car play is never guaranteed!
Longer mileage would be great, but for the price it’s a lovely little car.

Lovely car, great value for money, range is good (easily getting 130m per charge). Husband loves all the tech and I love the ability to pre-heat/cool down via app/pre programme.
Only issue is the boot, it would be great to have a handle or strap to pull it down to shut it. Also opening it is awful until you get the knack!!
Vehicle is a good height and it's width is an added bonus on the country lanes in Lincolnshire. Boot is ample for our weekly shop. Overall extremely happy.

Love driving my spring
It’s a lovely car to drive, the only thing I can fault is the media screen, it seems to pick and choose when it wants to work, sometimes it doesn’t come on and I have to turn the car off and close the door and then open the door again and turn engine back on and wait 5 minutes for the screen to come on. Other times it refuses to pair up to my CarPlay correctly. I do love that I can precondition my car from the Dacia app on hot days too.

Ideal car for local driving, small, compact, easy to park and drives well in traffic.
The only negative and its not a show stopper, the software takes a bit of getting to grips with, especially the manual. Not everything is perfect, the radio retunes when you turn off and the speed limit sensor does not reliably read the roadsigns, in fact its almost as bad as I am at reading them! None of that detracts from the fact that it is a very good town car.

I absolutely love my Dacia Spring Extreme. It’s smaller than my old car but I was able to test drive a demo car before getting mine and this was great to adjust to it and get to know the car. The demo has added extras like the roof bars and arm rest which helped me decide what I wanted to customise my own with (I went for the arm rest!!). It’s such a great car. Fab storage space, great tech, easy to work, great app and wonderful customer service.

I suffer from lower, back pain due to spondulitis, and do not find the seat in my Dacia as comfortable as in my old car. I use an extra cushion but need a softer support for my back. Sadly all modern cars I have sat in use a hard foam. My old Volvo has sprung seating and its bucket seats were really comfortable for long drives.
I understand the Dacia is advertised as a city car, but even after a few miles my back begins to ache.
