The engine of the Spring Electric mobilizes a maximum torque of 125 Newton meters.
The electric motor with 33 kW (44 hp) of power, the battery capacity of 26.8 kWh, and the ability to quickly charge direct and alternating current up to 30 kW allow sufficient ranges in the city and overland.
Typical features of the robust character
The design of the Spring Electric emphasizes its robust character with SUV elements. Typical features are the broad shoulders, contoured hood, roof rails and ground clearance of 150 millimeters. Added to this are pronounced wheel arch protectors and side sills.
With a length of 3.73 meters and a width of 1.62 meters (1.77 with exterior mirrors), the four-seater requires little traffic space and one is maneuverable in city traffic.
The power connection is hidden behind the centrally placed brand emblem, and the flap is unlocked from the inside. You can see more details in the gallery.
Trunk with up to 600 liters of volume
The rear of the Spring Electric is defined by the bold color-contrasting underride guard and tailgate. The design of the taillights positioned far to the outside in the shape of a double Y reveals the brand's new light signature.
Depending on the equipment level, the 16-inch flex wheels with the look of alloy wheels round off the appearance. The trunk holds 300 liters; with the rear backrest folded down, the capacity rises to 600 liters.
Control of the driving functions via rotary wheel
The driver always has the 3.5-inch central display with driving information in view. Voice recognition via Google or Apple can be activated at the touch of a button on the multifunction steering wheel.
The optional, center-mounted Media Nav multimedia system with seven-inch screen offers navigation, DAB radio, Bluetooth function and a USB port, and is also compatible with Google Play and Apple Carplay. Instead of a shift lever, the D (drive), N (neutral) and R (return) driving functions are controlled via a rotary wheel.
Range is up to 225 kilometers
The electric motor of the city car mobilizes a maximum torque of 125 Newton meters, which is available as soon as the vehicle starts up and enables rapid driving performance.
The battery with a capacity of 26.8 kWh allows a range of up to 225 kilometers. According to the factory, a range of 295 kilometers is possible in the city cycle.
The Spring Electric can be charged at a standard household outlet, via a wallbox or via a DC charging station. Charging time is less than one hour at a DC station with a charging capacity of 30 kW for charging to 80 percent of capacity, less than five hours at an AC station with 7.4 kW charging capacity to full charging capacity.
App informs about capacity and range
With the "My Dacia" app, customers always have an overview of all the details about their Spring Electric, such as the remaining battery capacity or the real remaining range. In addition, the pre-air conditioning can be activated and the car localized.
As soon as the Spring Electric is connected to a charging station, the app informs about the charging status and allows starting and stopping the charging process.
The Swiss market launch and the equipment have not yet been determined. The price is expected to be around 16,000 Swiss francs.
