2026 Spring Electric
We will have to remove the image soon because this offer is only valid until February 28. But before you rush off to a Dacia dealership instead of celebrating Carnival on Rose Monday, there are a few things you should
consider.
Despite the announcement, you would initially have to pay €11,900. However, it is likely that Bafa funding will be applied for on your behalf. The government subsidy has only just been announced and, as
always, has a capped amount.
Up to now, additional funds have always been provided at the end of the day to ensure that all applications could be processed satisfactorily, so we can trust the new government to do the same. However, you should check
again whether you and your wife have two children and earn a maximum of €48,000 net per year.
If not, then the premium is lower. And you are not allowed to sell the car for three years. However, you do not have to pay in cash to receive the bonus. All other forms of taking delivery of the new car are also eligible for
subsidies.
But what do you get for €11,900 initially? A car manufactured in China using proven methods. So far, no disadvantage except for the misallocation of taxpayer money and, unfortunately, accompanied by less than ideal
results in the TÜV tests.
The car also failed the NCAP test, receiving only one star. Dacia always mentions the Green NCAP test and its five stars at this point. So be careful with the terminology. Otherwise, people sometimes complain about the
tires, but they can be replaced when buying a new car or after wear and tear.
No, for the rest, the car scores quite well. It takes a whole night to charge or 45 minutes on a fast charger, but that only applies from 0 to 100 percent. It even has a slightly more powerful engine and the option of a small
trunk.
You just have to resist being talked into buying extras and be content with your own smartphone in the middle of the dashboard. The one-piece rear seat backrest is acceptable,
as older children have little legroom in the back anyway.
