- The entry-level Dacia Spring skips the center screen by using your smartphone as the infotainment system instead.
- The next trim isn’t much more expensive and adds the touchscreen plus several other useful upgrades.
- We have a feeling most buyers will spring (get it?) for the better-equipped version.
Tired of screens? Well, the cheapest version of the new Dacia Spring doesn’t even bother with one in the center console. Before you accuse Renault’s low-cost brand of going full Nokia 3310, there’s a catch. The base Spring lets you hook up your smartphone to the car, effectively turning your phone into the infotainment system. Why spend money on another screen when you already have a perfectly good one in your pocket?
