Dacia Spring Extreme with exclusive style elements

With this new trim, Dacia embellishes its spring with several specific styling elements. In terms of available shades, this extreme version is a grand opening Slate blue which will be reserved for this processing. The latter also enriches the small spring with several painted elements Copper-brown (on railings, mirror housings, wheel centers, stickers on front doors and thresholds and under headlight units).

On board the small electric SUV, the copper color is present on the front door panels, the contour of the air vents, the contour of the navigation panel and finally on the seams of the seats.

A new, more powerful version of Extreme

Released in two trim levels in 2021, the Extreme version replaces the expression of the highest version. Dacia also claims that almost 8 out of 10 customers chose the latter!

In addition to stylistic changes, Spring is also developing on the technical side. In the basic version, the electric unit with a capacity of 33 kW, which is equivalent to 45 hp, was retained. On the other hand, the Extreme version inherits a new motor 48 kWThis is 65 hp. This new engine coupled with the new specific reducer an increase in torque transmitted to the wheels will logically lead to better accelerations as well as sharper climbs. The current engine does suffer from quite slow revs due to low power.

No changes are visible from the autonomy side. The Extreme version is still available 220 km in WLTP mixed cycle. Last year, Spring was also held on the test bench of the AutoPlus laboratory. In the real cycle, small, inexpensive electricity has reached 160 km in a real mixed cycle and 205 km in the urban cycle. However, the Romanian manufacturer claims that its customers’ daily trips are 31 km with an average speed of 26 km/h. So enough to meet small daily needs!

A €200 increase over the Expression version

If you are interested in this new extreme version, please note that it will be available to order from us next January 17.

What about the price? This version is 65 hp. begins with 22,300 euros, and will therefore replace Expression processing. Thus, compared to the current 33 kW (45 hp) engine, the price has increased by only 200 euros. Note that this more upscale trim will be in the short term applies to the entire Dacia model range (Jogger, Duster, Sandero).
