5,2362024 Dacia Spring EV first look - is this the best value NEW electric car? The new electric car from Dacia is finally confirmed for UK sale, and it could be as cheap as £15,000. Using a platform from Renault Nissan in the far east, the Spring is a small 4 seat family EV that promises electric range of up to 140 miles and some Volvo design language. Oh, and no alloy wheels - just hubcaps!
