Tips to Reduce Charging Costs
- Charge at home overnight whenever possible. The Spring's small 25 kWh battery fills up completely on a standard home charger in about 4 to 5 hours, and home electricity costs a fraction of public charging.
- Avoid DC fast charging for daily use. The Spring tops out at 34 kW on DC, so sessions are slow and the per-kWh cost at fast chargers makes little sense for a battery this small.
- Use scheduled charging to take advantage of off-peak electricity rates. Even a small savings per kWh adds up when you charge every night.
- Drive in Eco mode to keep consumption close to or below the 152 Wh/km rating. The Spring is light and efficient, and gentle driving extends that advantage.
- Keep trips within the Spring's comfortable range to avoid relying on expensive public fast chargers. With 190 km of range, it handles most daily commutes without needing a mid-day top-up.
For daily use, plugging in at home every night is by far the cheapest approach. The Spring's small battery means even a full charge costs very little at home rates. Public AC chargers work well as a backup, but DC fast charging is best reserved for emergencies given the slow 34 kW maximum speed.
