The second-generation 2027 Dacia Spring was revealed in Europe in September 2026 as a larger, more powerful urban EV built in Slovenia, with no official US launch planned.
The model keeps its entry-price focus but grows to 151.6 inches long and 68.5 inches wide, with a more rugged stance and a roomier cabin than the first generation.
Powertrain is listed as 60 kW, rated at 80 hp with 129 lb-ft of torque, LFP battery at 27.5 kWh, FWD layout and single-speed automatic.
Performance is 0-100 km/h in 12.1 seconds, top speed of 130 km/h, about 81 mph, consumption of 12.7 kWh per 100 km and up to 250 km WLTP, about 155 miles.
Cargo space now hits 337 liters, about 11.9 cu-ft, one of the biggest practical gains for city use.
What changed on the 2027 Dacia Spring?
What changed is the full generational jump: bigger body, modernized interior and a more efficient electric setup with LFP chemistry.
The first generation launched in 2021 and was marked by a 1-star Euro NCAP rating, with weak adult occupant and frontal crash scores that still affect perception.
In 2022 the Spring was also highlighted by Green NCAP as one of the most environmentally efficient models, and the new generation tries to balance low cost with more space and current tech.
How much does it cost and will it come to the US?
The 2027 Dacia Spring starts at €17,900 in Europe before incentives, positioned under €20,000, and US MSRP is not officially disclosed.
There is no official Dacia sale in the US, so NHTSA, EPA range and IIHS ratings for this model are not officially disclosed.
The closest positioning in the US would be entry urban EVs like Chevrolet Equinox EV, Nissan Leaf and Fiat 500e, but Dacia has not confirmed any US trim or powertrain.
In Brazil the model also has no official price, FIPE value, or homologation, and is treated only as a technical reference for the Renault Kwid E-Tech.
What does it mean for US buyers?
The Spring matured into a bigger, more usable city EV with low energy use and a pragmatic LFP pack while keeping Europe’s lowest entry price. For US buyers the relevance is indirect, showing how affordable urban EVs are evolving abroad without a direct competitor from Dacia.
Would you trade a 1-star Euro NCAP history for 155 miles of range under €20,000 in a city EV?
