A study conducted last August on the environment and electric mobility in Europe found that people on the continent see climate change as a major concern. Indeed, 62% of them have changed their habits to combat climate change and pollution. To tackle this challenge facing the whole of society, everyone needs to play their part. High expectations are weighing upon various bodies, including governments, businesses and car manufacturers.
People are prone to thinking they drive 2,000 km every day and so they’d constantly need to recharge their electric vehicle. In actual fact, only 10% of us drive such long distances just once a year, if that. People need to try living with an electric vehicle to see just how easy it is to recharge at home and experience the joy of starting each day with a full ‘tank’. Moreover, people tend to believe that an electric car costs more than a petrol or diesel car, which often isn’t true. They only see the purchase price, and overlook the total cost of ownership.””

I’ve been driving an electric car for 9 years as I think it’s the right thing to do for the environment. When I saw the Dacia Spring in the dealership, I fell in love with the price and design, it was perfect! Before putting in my order, I was able to take it for a test drive, after which I knew it was the right car for me. I was one of the first people to buy a Spring and I am really satisfied with it, I go everywhere in my Spring!
I was delighted when I found out Dacia was bringing out an electric car, I just thought ‘wow!’ Affordable and the high quality we’ve come to expect from Dacia. The car has a very attractive design, it’s compact yet spacious, and boasts a very good-sized boot!
When I heard Dacia was bringing out its first all electric vehicle, I said to myself now was the time to make the switch. It was the best time to do it.
I work in the centre of Seville and I drive my Dacia Spring every day to get around. I chose the Spring because it was affordable and it fits with my values as my family and I strongly believe in the importance of sustainable, electric mobility.
