Dacia is launching the new Spring supermini this summer, with pre-orders running from June 4.

To display the model, the company is setting up a flagship showroom in West London.

The store, located at West Cross Industrial Park in Brentford, will open its doors on the same day.

At £14,995 it will be the cheapest all-electric model on the market in the UK, well under the £26,000 Vauxhall Corsa.

It's technically beaten by the Citroen Ami at just over £8,000, but that model is so small that it is legally categorised as a quadricycle rather than a car.

Customers will be able to flock to the site to get the first glance of the Spring, which has so far only been seen in preview pictures.

The space will be powered by solar energy, while fittings and fixtures will be made from recycled plastic, carpets and tyres.

Interested Brits will welcome between 2pm and 7pm to check out the new motor.
