Dacia Spring Lease Deals | Hippo Leasing

Looking for an affordable electric hatchback that's perfect for city life? The Dacia Spring brings electric motoring to a whole new audience with its competitive pricing and clever packaging. This compact EV combines SUV-inspired styling with genuine practicality, including a surprisingly roomy 308-litre boot that expands to over 1,000 litres with the seats folded.

Made by Dacia, renowned for their value-focused approach, the Spring represents their first step into the electric car market. At Hippo Leasing, we're making it even more accessible with competitive lease deals on new models, including zero-deposit options.

Why lease the Dacia Spring?

The Spring stands out with its elevated stance and rugged design elements that give it a crossover appeal. Inside, you'll find a straightforward and functional interior with a 7-inch digital display, while higher specs add a 10.1-inch touchscreen with wireless smartphone connectivity. The 26.8kWh battery delivers a practical 140-mile range, extending to 190 miles in urban driving.

While it's not built for speed – the more powerful Electric 65 version takes 13.7 seconds to reach 60mph – it's perfect for urban environments. The compact dimensions make it incredibly easy to manoeuvre and park, while the decent ground clearance helps tackle speed bumps and rough roads with confidence. Plus, with DC fast charging capability, you can boost the battery from 20-80% in around 45 minutes.

Why choose car leasing?

Leasing puts you in the driving seat of a new electric car like the Spring without the long-term commitment of ownership. You'll make fixed monthly payments over an agreed term, typically 2-4 years, and simply hand the car back at the end. There's no worry about depreciation or selling the car on – just drive and enjoy.

Business users will find the Spring particularly appealing for leasing, especially the Cargo version with its impressive 1,085-litre load space. As a fully electric vehicle, it attracts a minimal 2% Benefit in Kind rate, and business lease customers can reclaim 50% of the VAT on their monthly payments. Plus, with zero emissions, you'll save significantly on running costs.

Who does a Dacia Spring lease suit?

The Spring is perfect for urban dwellers and small families who want an affordable route into electric motoring. It'll suit you if you're primarily driving in town and want something easy to park and manoeuvre, with enough range for occasional longer trips. The efficient powertrain and compact dimensions make it ideal for both private and business users focused on city driving.

If you like Dacia's value proposition but need something different, the Dacia Sandero offers traditional power with similar practicality. Looking at electric alternatives? The Fiat 500 brings Italian style to the segment, while the Volkswagen e-Up offers refined German engineering in a similar package.
