DACIASandero 2008 - 2012

　　4 years after the launch of the Dacia’s flagship model - Dacia Logan, it was time for a hatchback version to hit the market, as the sedan, MCV, VAN and pick-up versions were already present.

　　The 5-door hatchback named Sandero was based on the same platform as the Logan, namely the B0. The Sandero featured a robust image with the bumper and the radiator grille perfectly adapted to the body.

　　Even if the selling price of the Sandero corresponded to that of a small class vehicle, the hatchback offered an impressing loading volume of 320 liters, a capacity hard to be matched by its competitors. The splitting rear seats could increase the load volume to 1200 liters.

　　The interior was equipped with a modern and functional dashboard, while the door panels were made of better quality plastics than the ones used for the Logan.

　　Ergonomics was one of the Sandero’s strongest points, with all of the controls placed within easy reach, as well as the dashboard information being easy to read.

　　The engine choice was varied with units borrowed from Renault: a 1.4-liter 75 hp, a 1.6-liter 90 hp, a 1.5-liter 70 hp and a 1.5-liter 85 hp.

　　The powerplants were not very powerful, however, they were a great fit for city traffic and even longer journeys.
