The Shift to a New Model
The CEO of Renault Group, Luca de Meo, has recently affirmed that Dacia has begun the process of developing its new electric city car. This one will be similar to the imminent Renault Twingo electric that will take over the position of the Spring in the near future. It is thrilling to see that Dacia is continuing the electric era with the new model as well.
In my own perspective, it is something that can easily be supported when it comes to the transportation of electric cars. Self-propelled batteries are cleaner and more efficient means of transport, which will be of significant importance for our company and the entire world. Dacia’s entry into this segment is a good one, given the importance that they have cultivated regarding the issue of affordable prices.
European Production
Nonetheless, one factor that stands out in this new model is the issue of production location. The Spring, which is the predecessor model of the new Dacia car model, was manufactured in China but the new Dacia car will be manufactured in Europe. While it is still not clear whether the line will be based at the Mioveni plant in Romania, the idea is minutely exciting. Manufacturing in Europe not only adds to the European economy but also, in many cases, delivers better quality and shorter delivery times into Europe.
A Swift Development
If you are interested in the answer to the question of when this new model is going to appear, you will be delighted to know that it will not take long. Luca de Meo has said more recently that a new Dacia model would be in the Romanian market in the next 16 months. That is quite fast by automotive industry timings, as estimated by various automotive manufacturing statistics. This proves the great efficiency and commitment of Dacia to innovations, which allow them to be prepared to develop fast as the automotive business develops rapidly.
In my opinion, I have noted that Dacia is quite responsive to changes in market demands and innovations. In a world where the horizon of transportation is shifting, few companies are proactive instead of passive, and for this reason, it is good to see such players.
End Note
Altogether, Dacia is interesting and promising when it comes to the further development of an electric city model. This is good as they have committed to electric and also today strategize on the production of cars in Europe, making them one of the progressive car brands in the auto industry. I am anticipating seeing this new model on the road and how it will revolutionize the transport system in towns. As a car lover, I am eager to see how Dacia will go further and advance in the electric battle.
