Review summary
Customers praise the car's affordability and value for money, often noting it compares well to pricier models. Many find it fun, easy, and comfortable to drive for local or city use, and appreciate the roomy interior given its compact size. Some reviewers also highlight positive experiences with helpful customer support staff. There is also appreciation for the features of the infotainment system when it functions properly and for the build quality relative to the car's price. However, several customers report issues with the car's handling or ride comfort, particularly mentioning hard seats, limited headroom, and discomfort for taller drivers. The battery range is frequently described as only adequate for short trips, with a noticeable drop in colder weather. The infotainment system, screen, and app are often criticized for glitches and unreliability. Experiences with customer support and handover are mixed, with some citing poor communication and aftersales service. The build quality receives criticism for 'tinny' doors, minor faults, and the use of inexpensive materials.

The value for money when driving and filling up. Could be a bit bigger and have more backspace but that'll come with the future Sandero EV.

A fun little electric car
You get what you pay for, a fun little electric car which is perfect for local journeys.
Positives: fast charge is a must, enjoyably fast acceleration, very comfortable for a small car. Negatives: boot doesn't shut without a slam, the media screen sometimes takes a minute to wake up.
I would recommend the Spring to anyone with the proviso that person knows what they want. It isnt a luxurious long range car and is never going to be....

Also , speed limit control but worked that out ..

I love my Zeb (Zebedee - Spring)
I love my Zeb. The best car I have owned. Perfect car for a lady driver and friend. Just missing a lip stick mirror on sun visor.
But also so nippy and speedy when needed

Very comfortable and easy to drive. Plenty of room for a small car. People comment how good it looks.
It doesn't seem to charge to the full amount, and some of the controls seem to be a bit complicated. The younger generation find it no problem, but the Seniors like myself, who are more likely to use this car, sometimes find it awkward. However, I still like the car as it suits my needs admirably.

Great little nippy car around the city. It has just the right number of features to make the car easy to live with but not wasting money on items that hardly ever get used.
The heater could do with being hotter and adding software for the lower spec cars to use vehicle to load would be a great addition.

Great little car, easy to handle and as only used for short journeys battery only needs charging around every 8 days
Verified
Simple nippy and works great as a runaround and is chargable overnight on a granny charger - 6 m/kwh - just really well done.
Verified
Very efficient and cheap to run. Everything you need in a small, compact car and without the complication found in other EVs.

Good performance, poor comfort.
The performance and acceleration are excellent.
The lack of height adjustment on the drivers seat and the positioning of the window winders are terrible. That and the basic comfort make me think I will change the vehicle very shortly.

Vehicle sold to myself by Glen at Ipswich was exactly what I wanted. He was honest with his delivery of the whole experience with no false promises. Where I believed the handover for me could have been longer Glen had taken onboard my opinion obtaining a paper copy of the vehicle handbook for my reference. Generally a good vehicle for myself with the support of Dacia Ipswich.

A delightful drive. Good performance and handling. Currently costing 1p/mile.
Radio/4&5G reception very poor.

140miles Range is achievable on most days
I like how it drives and the range I get from a single charge. It's fun and does exacly what it's meant to do
Verified
Excellent cheap runaround with lots of power for a small car .would be even better if it had a bit more range

For a budget vehicle the Expression 65 is pretty much perfect, except in the screen defrosting and demisting department. A heated front windscreen would be really beneficial, the system as it is defrosts the passenger side much quicker than the more important drivers right hand side, presumably because of the European origins of this model?

Perfect size for us. Nippy for use in town. I like it because it looks different than other EV’s
Verified
I'm really enjoying my dacia spring, easy to drive, reasonably priced , what's not to like
Verified
Dacia spring offers good value for money. We enjoy driving it. It is small and a bit tinny. Minor problems with the audio system needing regular resetting. And occasionally the B drive setting doesn’t engage.

Easy to drive very nippy around town and easy to park
