John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

This car is listed as £15k on electrifying, £17k on the Late Break Show and £20k on Autotrader. It's the same car, filmed on the same day in the same press event. What's going on?
Whatever the correct price, it's twice as much as it's worth! I can buy a brand new MG4 for less!
@@phuketexplorerwhere?
This is as low as $13,000 (12,000 Euro) after incentives and then the Dealer adds is thousands.
Autotrader knows how much they’ll take the **** when it launches in the uk. Given what other EVs go do it should be no more than 16-17k and certainly under 10k after a year.
It's a modified Chinese built Dongfeng. Bet it's half the price,in China.
Every time I see this car on YT the price goes up. Started at £15,000 a couple of days ago
It's the British effect.
It still is 15k for the cheapest model. Top spec 65hp one is 17k. Pre order for £99 available around Oct

The boot is spacious and the other thing I just forgot 😶
Bit nippy in the studio today.
@@BrianW1612 😄👍
It's got 4 wheels? 🤔
@@phuketexplorer I remember only two😶
£20k car, but they show you the top spec car which isn't 20k. In 3 years will be worth less than 10k
It's not even 17k fully loaded in Europe
It won't even be worth that!
Wait three years then, buy secondhand 😂
@@sugerbear586 The bottom will have rotted out by then!
@@sugerbear586 battery replacement in 3 years will be £22k 😂
Very important that the horsepower is quite low to eat away at insurance cost. Over 100 miles in winter will be enough in 9/10 scenarios, like commuting two 40 mile round trips between charging with spare miles for a trip to the shops.
This may be a future classic once a 9 year old used one is £6,000 and the tuners get to the drive train lol
Thank you for a balanced, non arrogant view of this car, unlike some other channels. Very much appreciated.
*cough* CarWow
Good concice review👍. Think Dacia are onto a winner here. For those who do mostly short urban journeys, can charge at home and looking for a new car which is environmentally friendly that seats up to 4 with luggage, is there really anything else? A good school run, shopping, commuting car. Small and lightweight is the way to go if we truly want to limit the harm to the environment.😊
At last, some clear thinking when it comes to an evidence-based approach to EVs. Electrification of transport being a way of mitigating the effects of climate change by transitioning away from fossil fuels. This car is small, light and highly efficient. No frills basic affordable transport for the ordinary person. It and cars with a similar design philosophy might actually make a difference. Well done Dacia/Renault and thank you Alex for yet another excellent review.
Totally agree👍
Does it though, do they really? Our car does 55 combined, doesn't need a battery, produces 99 grams per km and cost 12k new. It doesn't require any new infrastructure or plugging in and the tyres start at fifty quid. It'd be interesting to find out which has the biggest impact, because every we make or do does oh and an that includesair con and a touch screen..
Finally a video on a car I can somewhat afford.
In South Africa the petrol version of the Kwid costs only £9000. Don't understand why the EV is more than double the price
The battery is very expensive
have you bought lithium batteries before?
if you haven't ask your neighbor what his 48v battery in his inverter cost
The battery is a huge cost.
Welcome to EVs
The kwid is a car and a possible coffin in one thing (1 star Indian ncap) This one meet the required minimum Eu safety law which is far ahead.
the first video I watched of this car today the thumbnail says 15k, the second one 17k, and this one 20k. in the first day of launch, it's already gone up 33%. lol
I pre-ordered the top model on March 12 for 17k. I don't think the price has gone up yet?
If you ask me, they could take the screen off and make it even cheaper - nobody's ever gonna use the car's own infotainment, just put Android Auto/Apple CarPlay and directly use the phone as the screen.
They do on the lower trims its just a smartphone holder
I'm just here for Alex...💋
Seeing that this is a $5,000 Chinese car that is rebadged.... I can't get too excited about the price. I would rather have a VW e-Up as the build quality is far better.
This is a tin can made out of baked bean tins.
@zog97xy Really?? Wow... bake bean tins are solid... I was think more like Pepsi cans.
@@mikadavies660 How about sardine tins?
Great concept for a real car for millions of people, and for all those feel-gooders it has a green tick. Why else would you want a faster, more top speed, heavier car? The price isnt right though. NCAP, take off the lost points for "driver aids" ie those things that the driver should be doing anyway and the car is about as safe as any car from a few years ago. In town it is perfectly safe. Interesting review.
17k for the top model 65hp launched on March 12th. Pre order availability for £99 deposit.
Finally I can recharge my Citroën Ami with this car
So a city car EV that has a tiny range that will need recharging for nearly an hour every 100 miles or so in citys where 90%+ of the inhabitants will not be able to charge at home. Yeh, great car.......said no one.
Does it have heated rear wings to keep your hands warm when you're pushing it in winter?
If this comes out at 20K it will be like some printers where it is cheaper to buy a whole new printer than buy a replacement ink cartridge, a replacement battery for this car will be worth what the car was new.
You can buy a replacement battery for the nissan leaf, almost the same as in the spring, for 3.500€. It's not like in a Tesla, where it is an integral part of the car.
how is that different to a 100k tesla?
@@nedyahyakcam The difference is the way the battery ist built into the car. In the tesla it's a structual part of the chasis, and that's why I can't be changed that easy. While in the Nissan Leaf and the Dacia Spring the batterys are just that, a battery and not a structual part and because of that can be changed way easier.
@@Nesh_87 companies like rich rebuilds do the packs on teslas all the time, you got sold bull shit
wow, 3 different reviewers 3 different pricing. i've watched 3 different reviewers, stating pricing starting from £15k, £17k and now £20k looks like we have to wait for actual pricing. I was interested with the first review, waned a bit with the second and now I'm just put off
Maybe because there are 3 different levels of equipment for this car so that's why they are 3 different prices.
@@JT.777 nope, they all said pricing starts from
@@iMcWatch Really?
Now that's quite weird!
@@JT.777 exactly what I’m saying, we’ll see when the prices are officially released. In the meantime their reporting are doing a disservice to a car that has the potential to make a difference to the truly affordable sector of the EV market
@@iMcWatch You are perfectly right!
Why does everything has to look SUV'ish these days?
I really don't get it... aside from the Urus, all of them look way worse than comparable Wagons.
Wagons are the best allround car design ever. Period.
They do all the stuff associated with SUVs except they actually deliver. Just imagine the Urus was designed on a Panamera basis... they could've actually made it look like a 4-seater real Lamborghini 🥲 both a coupé and a Sports Turismo version
if only the Lamborghini Estoque was real
Because at least in America it costs less to produce an EV because of some old tax law about trucks so the manufacturers convinced people they need SUV because they're safer. That's until you get hit by one
People are getting fatter and less agile so high up cars caters for their inability to squat.
@@joebates640 That A is a concept car and B looks still way more like an SUV than a Wagon
@@rolfknappmann they ought to do what Porsche do with the Sport Turismo versions of their Panamera and Taycan
The last time I saw tires as thin at that, it was on my wheel barrow!! 8-))...
Always liked Dacias
Looks great
Will be nice in a few years when they start to hit the second hand market, a good city car or second car for the school run.
Currently I'm looking at the upcoming i10 1.2 with 80 odd bhp, probably 50+ mpg, air con and a touch screen for £16.5k (including a 7 year warranty). I know what I'll go for.
There’s a 3yr old BMW i3 with less than 4K miles on Auotrader for less than £20k. I know what I’d spend my money on
definitely not on a bloody outdated and inefficient i3 with no or almost no warranty left. also who wants to associate with this brand most driven by bellends.
Have a look how much parts are for an i3.
For 15000 pounds 💷 can get a 2008 e. Corsa e.
This seems a bit sudden. They just dropped a new one on us as soon as it was confirmed to come to the UK.
Styling is good, cheap electric car will be popular. Yes the range is poor but for someone like me that does 5 miles a day total to and from work it would probably be good
amazing CAR!!!!!
that looks great for an ev, let alone a dacia
I went into a petrol station and asked the guy for a set of windscreen wipers for a dacia thingy and he said that was a fair swap.....
No Ta. I'd rather 'spring' the extra for the MG4...
It’s a very small car, has it been crash tested yet? I prefer to have a full frame in my vehicles.
❤ NiCe Facelift
Short range, inexpensive, light, small proportions (relatively)...this seems like a great car for a city dweller. If only these kinds of cars were available in the USA, New York and California would be all over the place.
Twice as much as a superior NETA 'V' in Thailand! 😄
20,000+ is a "Gotchya" move
What the hell is that?
@@patriotbarrow A bit like Elon and his cyber truck, he said it would only be 39K at its debut but ended up being 60K on release.
Thank you Dacia for showing Renault India how good the Kwid can look - inside and outside.
"45 horsepower, which is just more than a scooter" - you mean a lot more than a scooter!
It's just a Dongfeng Nano Box, and It's selling at £6k. After relabelled selling £20k in the UK? so funny
I originally opened the video because of the new Dacia spring. But in the end I was interested in something completely different…
I think this is the same as DONGFENG EX1 and its starting price in China is about £6200.
I like the orange colour, otherwise it looks as rubbish as most EVs. I see some dealers are now refusing EVs in PX
Imagine paying £20k for a 14 second 0-62
Correction the old spring also hase auto breaking assist with vehicle and bicicle detection, wellcome!
Also, the one's with a sunroof can double up as a skip....
Looks sick!!!!!!😍😍😍😍,id definitely lower the suspension n get some slightly wider wheels,genuinely exited for it
Just because you say it for 3 times, i need to correct this.
This car is not "updated for UK" and is just the new DC Spring.
Cheers!
What was the range?
5 miles.
They claim 140 miles, but when the top speed is 78mph, on the motorway I'd expect the range to be under 100 miles
If I see another time a coffee machine as a justification for double charging I'm going to loose it.
The world is going crazy. I hope you will understand this perspective. Average person in east europe must work 3 years for this car.
It went crazy decades ago
A good price for ev.
£20k these days is impressive let alone for a full EV
Good News! It’s the new Dacia Spring!
🔥🔥🔥
The team that designed those door handles uses Internet Explorer running Windows XP !!
It's a very small city vehicle. It has its pros, but not for 15-20k €, because it's very limited. So I can't absolutely call it cheap or budget. For example Dacia Sandero is a real all around car, it's better in any configuration you buy compared to this one. Yes, it's ICE, but it's probably triple value for money and you can buy it VERY CHEAP indeed. I really don't understand pricing for this vehicle. And this "new" one is only old one model with restyling, there is NO NEW ANYTHING. Same body, same battery, same add options.
Buahahaha, nice word play. "Dacia next car" :))
'it's always cold in the UK' stopping talking rubbish ............like the car
Wow no ac terrible range and so many negetives ill stick with my 2002 vw jetta tdi will outlast that.
How tiny is the car or how tall is she..🤔
"45 BHP is not much more than a scooter". Oh yes it is, it's an awful lot more than a scooter. And the car weighs less than a tonne. Dacia know what they're doing here.
So it's a bit cheap, very much a city/town car but not much else. Could be good for a fair chunk of people I guess.
Why would anyone buy this when a year old Vauxhall Mokka top spec EV with 5k on the clock is going for 15-17k on autotrader and there are loads of them
Good news
What ?
The Dacia ..
Oh great, moving on
Dear editors, Alex's review are great, but for the love of god stop making her Vanna White every feature. Just let her talk about it. We know what the hood looks like, we don't need a close up of her hand touching it.
This is more like electric cars should be like (apart from the 1 star safety rating) if we are really going to help the planet

No one knows for sure yet but I reckon £18k
@@lewismcnicholas2631 only worth half of that! They used to sell the basic sandero for £5.999.00.
I get the point it’s a basic cheapish ev with faster depreciation than its 0-60 time.
When did £20k become a cheapish!!
80% of the population have less than £1000 savings.
It's not really a car. You need a Flintstone, the cartoon character, to move it in winter. 😅
It only has a range of 105 miles and charges very slowly. 😢
Don’t Go for the Spring unless you want an unsafe car.... 😬 Wait till the 2024 Geneva Motor Show for the Renault 5.Will cost less than £20,000 and I’m sure it will be more safe and Better Value 👍
R5 EV FTW! The Alpine version may be rather enticing too...
It will cost over 20.000€, they claimed around 25.000€. that's 25% more
£20k is 'cheap' these insane days!!!! Most people are struggling to pay their way in life & car presenters are sponsored to tell us bullshit! Some people might be gullible but the majority aren't 😊🎉
One star ncap is telling the full truth.
It’s losing stars for not having driver aids.
When the rubber hits the road or poo hits the fan, a head on, off set smash with a one star fiat panda will see the Dacia occupants fare better.
i dont know if its possible but cheap car I'd rather have acceleration over top speed. 140km/h is enough top speed, but if acceleration takes decades to reach that speed then why not just buy other product
Not my favourite Autotrader presenter, but some interesting data mixed in with some flawed personal commentary.
The era of great cars are coming to an end. These uninspiring pieces of rubbish will be the norm from now on.
Just buy the Sandero stepway.
20k lol when I say cheap im talking 13k-17k and will keep a value of at least 8-10k in 10 years.
Should be called the Dacia Deathtrap. And honestly, if you want an EV, just use the same money and buy a better spec EV second hand.
Expensive golf cart.
Cool to see Alex here after watching her on Lovecars!
It's way overpriced. In India, tata punch at 13000 pound puts out 120 bhp and has a 35 kw lithium phosphate battery. This car will come to India under Renault brand. If they priced this car like Europe. That's gonna be a flop show.
Rather buy something used
Lol just wait for BYD Seagull
Sounds inadequate.
😮
The presenter trying to convince us that £20,000 is a cheap vehicle! The spec is dire and the battery is no bigger than a carry on suitcase. Welcome to the new world. Probably £24,000 for model shown.
One star human safety, but at least green five star.😂
20k£ is not good price,still way to much!
