All-New Dacia Spring Wins ‘EV Deal Of The Century’ At TopGear.com Awards 2024​​

The All-New Dacia Spring announces itself at the TopGear.com Electric Awards 2024, winning the award for ‘EV Deal of the Century’.

The pure-electric supermini was considered a game-changer by the judges who praised the vehicle for its enjoyable drive, and for it being the sole EV on the market weighing less than a ton – all for an unbeatable and affordable price compared to its competitors.

Dacia’s announcement informed that the five-door hatchback will have a starting price of £14,995, making it the most budget-friendly new electric car in the UK thanks to its offering of significant savings.

Ollie Marriage, Head of Car Testing at TopGear.com, said:

“The £15k Spring isn't just ridiculous value, it's the first electric car to prove that lightness and batteries can go together: all in it weighs 970kg. It's also charming and engaging to drive. It rides softly, rolls lots and makes you smile.”

Luke Broad, Dacia Brand Director for the UK, also said:

“Spring rewrites the EV rulebook. Its price is so competitive that it’s one of the UK’s most affordable cars full stop, which is even more remarkable when its usability and standard equipment are considered. Add its proven durability, and it’s easy to see why TopGear.com single it out as being the best deal of the century.”

Making its debut in the UK in October, the All-New Dacia Spring will be offered in two fully-equipped trim levels: Expression and Extreme. Customers will have the option to choose between a 45 hp motor or a more robust 65 hp/48 kW motor. With a range reaching up to 137 miles (WLTP mixed cycle) or 186 miles (WLTP urban cycle), the vehicle features a compact 26.8 kWh battery. Charging from 20% to 100% on a domestic outlet takes less than 11 hours, while a 7kW wall box achieves the same in just four hours.
