Dacia Spring electric lease deals

Leasing a Dacia Spring Electric in the UK

The Romanian brand, Dacia, are finally entering the electric car market with their new city-car hatchback – the Spring. Based around the Renault Kwid, this cost-effective crossover is looking to combine the battery production and technological advancements of the Renault group (who own the brand) together with the familiar and no-nonsense Dacia finish.

While the Spring was announced as far back as 2020, the sales in Europe began in March 2021 (but not the UK). After a refresh in 2022 and then a further update in 2024, a right-hand side model was formerly confirmed for the UK. And this option is now ready to order for June 2024.

As the manufacturer website sets out – “robust lines give it the look of an off-road vehicle while its instant acceleration gives it the agility of a city car”. Firm, fastidious and frugal, this compact but spacious model is looking to fulfil the needs of those electric car lease customers who need practicality (but on a budget).

But what Dacia Spring models will be available?

As at April 2024, three options are coming to the UK including:

•  Expression 45 (from £15,645) – this will include air conditioning, 7” driver display, Smartphone integration, cruise control, rear parking sensors, automatic headlights LED daytime running lights, heated rear screen, cruise control, Bluetooth and 14” steel wheels;
•  Expression 65 (from £15,995) – this will include air conditioning, 7” driver display, Smartphone integration, cruise control, rear parking sensors, automatic headlights and 15” steel wheels; and
•  Extreme 65 (from £16,995) – this will include 10” driver display, 2 USB ports, Bidirectional charging, front and rear parking sensors, electric front and rear window, copper styling, front rubber mats, onboard remote charging program and 15” steel wheels.
