After three months of calm, Dacia is still increasing the prices of its models. The small Spring is concerned on its 3 levels of finish. Thus, the entry-level Comfort will require an additional €300, from March 1, 2022. The Comfort Plus, it exceeds €19,000.
This is the third general increase in prices in a few months for Dacia. The Dusters, Sanderos and Springs are suffering the repercussions of the semiconductor crisis. Because in addition to longer delivery times and lower discounts, manufacturers are inflating their prices to counter it. Another bad news for the city car which received only one star in the Euro NCAP crash tests last December. But nothing to worry about: it still remains the cheapest electric vehicle on the market. And its some 46,000 international sales in 2021 confirm customers’ interest in “clean” low-cost products.
200 or 300 € more
The Spring sees its price increase by €300 on the Comfort and Business versions, the latter being reserved for professionals. Between October 2021 (first deliveries of the Spring) and March 2022, the basic model (Comfort) will therefore be increased from €16,990 to €17,690 in the catalogue. For the Comfort Plus version, the supplement requested is €200. It is therefore displayed at 19,190 €. The equipment or the options offered are in no way modified for the occasion.
With the variable ecological bonus put in place (27%), this additional cost is partly absorbed. Thus, for any order placed before June 30, 2022 and delivered before September 30, the State offers you a boost of €4,776.30 on the Comfort or €5,181.30 for a Comfort Plus. That is respectively a real increase in the price of the Spring of 219 € and 146 €. Be careful, because from 1er July 2022, the aid will be capped at €5,000.
Dacia Spring prices (March 2022)
2022 will be the first full year for the Spring model in Europe. A career that will ultimately not last long, given the arrival of a second generation by 2024. Let’s hope that the selling price will still be as tight in the future, once the ecological bonus is removed.
