What Type of Charging Cable Does the Dacia Spring EV Use?
The Dacia Spring uses a Type 2 connector, which is the standard EV charging plug used throughout the UK and Europe. This means you’ll need a Type 2 to Type 2 charging cable for:
-
Home wall box charging.
-
Workplace EV chargers.
-
Public AC charge points (7kW, 11kW, and 22kW).
For rapid charging, the Spring is equipped with a CCS port. Public rapid and ultra-rapid chargers have tethered CCS cables, so you don’t need to buy one separately.
Dacia Spring EV Charging Speeds
Your charging speed depends on both the charge point and the cable you choose. Here’s what to expect:
-
Home Wall Box (7.4kW): Around 6–8 hours.
-
Public AC Charger (11–22kW): Around 3–4 hours.
-
DC Rapid Charger (up to 30kW): Around 45 minutes (10–80%).
Which Cable Length Should You Choose?
Choosing the right cable length depends on where you charge most often:
5m Charging Cable
Perfect if your wall box is very close to your parking space or you have a smaller driveway.
7m Charging Cable
Ideal for public charging bays, where chargers may be positioned behind or between vehicles.
10m or 15m Charging Cable
The best option if your charger is further away from the parking area, or is awkwardly positioned.
