Should you buy one?

The Spring proves that a lot of electric cars out there are too heavy, too complicated, and too powerful for what most of us really need in daily life. It’s expected to be priced at around £20,000 (or perhaps even less) when it arrives in the UK in 2024, comes with a competitive amount of equipment compared to the cars that it rivals, yet is likely to be nearly half the price.

It is an interesting and good value small electric car. We can’t recommend buying one just yet because of our lack of time in one. But check back in a few months for our full review.

What we like

Prices are yet to be confirmed, but it will comfortably be the cheapest electric car (if you discount the Citroen Ami because it’s a quadricycle) in the UK. It handles well and is more than capable of hitting its range claim, which most electric cars can’t.

What we don’t like

It does feel cheap inside, it’s not fast and while its range claim is spot on, its actual range limits it to short distances.
