Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the Dacia Spring Electric 45. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.

Rapid Charging (10 -> 80%)

Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the Dacia Spring Electric 45.

Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%

All about the Dacia Spring Electric 45

Pricing

The Dacia Spring Electric 45 has an On The Road Price (OTR) of £14,995. The OTR Price includes VAT, first year of VED, vehicle first registration fee, number plates and delivery.

Drivetrain and Performance

The Dacia Spring Electric 45 is a full electric vehicle (BEV). The maximum power of the Dacia Spring Electric 45 is 33 kW (44 hp). The estimated maximum torque is 92 lb-ft. The Dacia Spring Electric 45 is front wheel drive and can accelerate from 0 to 62 miles per hour in an estimated 19.1 seconds. The top speed is 78 mph.

Battery and Charging

The battery of the Dacia Spring Electric 45 has a total capacity of 26.8 kWh. The usable capacity is 25 kWh (estimate). An estimated range of about 100 miles is achievable on a fully charged battery. The actual range will however depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style.

For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in a range of around 70 mi. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the range to around 160 mi.

Charging is done using a Type 2 connector and the on-board charger has a maximum power of 6.6 kW. This charges a fully depleted battery back to full in around 4 hours 30 minutes. Charging the car using a regular wall plug will take around 13 hours.

Rapid charging is available as an option and is possible through a CCS connection. The maximum rapid charge power is 34 kW. The battery can't be charged continuously at this power. In an average rapid charge session the average charge power will be around 29 kW. This charges the battery from 10% to 80% in around 40 minutes. A rapid charge like this will add about 70 miles of range.

Energy Consumption

The estimated combined (motorway and city) energy consumption of the Dacia Spring Electric 45 is about 250 Wh per mile. By comparison, this energy consumption is the equivalent of a fuel consumption of 162 mpg in a traditional petrol car.

The actual energy consumption will depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style. For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in an energy use of around 357 Wh per mile. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the efficiency to about 156 Wh per mile.

CO2 Emission

The Dacia Spring Electric 45 emits no CO2 during driving. This only includes direct emissions from the vehicle itself. The energy needed to charge the battery might have been (partly) generated by the use of fossil fuels. Vehicles with an internal combustion engine will always emit CO2 during driving. Additionally, CO2 is emitted during the production and transport of fossil fuels.
