Dacia Sandero

This lively supermini from Dacia is a practical, compact yet spacious car. Equally at home in city streets as it is on the open road, the Sandero is designed to meet any challenge life can throw at it. The build quality is excellent in all three trims, Access, Essential and Comfort, and the engine options are reliable and efficient.

Interior

The seats themselves are supportive enough for journeys of any length, and there are countless ingenious storage solutions around the cabin. The Sandero has class-leading practicality when it comes to boot space, with 320 litres with the seats in place and 1,200 litres when you fold them flat.

Performance and efficiency

The power translates into acceleration; with this engine the Sandero achieves 0-60mph in under 10.7 seconds and has a top speed of 109mph. The sharp handling harnesses this power to give a dynamic and lively drive, with weighty steering to give you confidence around tight corners.

You can rest assured that your journeys will be kind to your pocket and the environment too, with excellent fuel economy. The 1.5-litre dCi diesel delivers an impressive 74mpg and emits just 99g/km of CO2.

Safety and technology

The three trim levels available offer excellent value for money and can be personalised with Dacia's huge range of optional extras. The Essential variant comes with Bluetooth® connectivity and a sophisticated chrome finish throughout the interior. The range-topping Laureate model has luxuries such as cruise control and electrically adjustable door mirrors to deliver an effortless driving experience.

Safety features are not compromised for value on any variant; ABS and emergency brake assist come as standard on the Access model, along with traction control and ESC. ISOFIX child seat fittings make the Sandero an excellent option for families.
