Dacia Spring: Renault verkauft neuen Billigstromer ab 17.900 Euro
Der französische Autobauer produziert die überarbeitete Version des Dacia Spring künftig in Slowenien. Damit soll das günstige Modell sich besser gegen chinesische Wettbewerber behaupten.
Novo Mesto, Slovenia: Renault has launched the sale of the newly revamped electric car, the Dacia Spring. This new generation of small car is manufactured in Europe and qualifies for incentives that favor vehicles produced locally. The Spring starts at 17,900 euros. It is assembled in Novo Mesto, the same factory where Renault produces the electric city car Twingo E-Tech.
Since its launch in 2021, the Spring has sold well, but competition on the European market has become tougher. Stellantis offers the Citroën ë-C3 and the Leapmotor T03, while BYD sells the Dolphin Surf. The new Spring is longer and wider than its predecessor, providing more interior space and a larger boot. A lithium-iron phosphate battery allows a range of up to 250 kilometers.
Renault-Wachstumsvorstand Fabrice Cambolive said at a press event that producing both the new Dacia Spring and the Renault Twingo in Slovenia is "a big bet on Europe." "To compete with the Chinese competition, it's better to have both a Spring and a Twingo, rather than just a Twingo or just a Spring."
