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

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.

Love the car. Budget and economical wise very good. Comfortable and easy to drive. Nice boot size. Ideal for short journeys. Planning is key for long journeys. Lightweight for obvious reasons but do feel the high winds. Big boot. Shame it doesn't have a fifth seat belt but 4 seater even though get 5 in easy.

Expect later versions to have increased mileage range.

Really good entry level to the ev world. Have learned much.

I bought the car purely for local trips typically 50 miles round trip. Back seat has never been used. Permanently down to accommodate big dog.

Car is unbelievablely cheap to run. Approx £4 for around 100 miles. Range, in good weather is 140.

On the downside, it's not ever so comfortable and the doors shut like a van with no attempt at refinement.

But it's an inexpensive runabout and imo is brilliant.

Well done Dacia.

A few niggles: the screen doesn’t always pop up when I get in, and the Apple CarPlay regularly refuses to connect to my phone. The key is awful - not only is there no keyless start, the wretched thing doesn’t even fold up: a complete nuisance in my handbag.

The finish is very ‘minimalist’, but I suppose that’s what you get with a low priced car.

On the other hand, it’s very economical and very responsive.

Spring is so nice to drive, but there is a massive problem when using cruse control on a slight down hill. The car brakes and then accelerates, then breaks harder, then accelerates and breaks, this becomes quite violent. A number of people are reporting the same fault on social media, so I assume It is a software issue. If it wasn't for this I would give the car 5 stars as I really love it.

I like it but we cannot understand all of the controls. We still haven't figured how to switch off the radio. . Itsalso cold in the winter. Otherwise very pleased. We haven't noticed any difference in our fuel bill but we do have solar panels. My husband does complain the the back seat comes in one piece. He would like a split seat so that he can carry another passenger and golf clubs

Runs well, used as a second car. Find the feature to stop you drifting in lane irritating as it comes on when there is no problem, for example when joining a motorway from a slip road. Also find the alarm for exceeding the speed limit will beep when driving past the entrance to residential roads with a lower limit than the main road I'm driving on. However, drives well and is good value
