The new Dacia Spring Electric, said to be Europe s most affordable EV, has gone on sale in France priced from €12,403 after that country s generous EV incentives.
That minimum price, equivalent to £10,630, positions the Spring alongside a mid-range, conventionally fuelled Sandero in terms of cost.
The French government currently offers a grant to buyers of sub-€45,000 EVs amounting to 27% of the cost of purchase, including tax, and a further €2500 if the EV is bought in exchange for an older ICE car to be scrapped.
Pre-orders for the four-seat Spring open on 20 March, while a two-seat commercial variant will be introduced in 2022.
