1. WHAT’S NEW AT THE 2016 PARIS MOTOR SHOW

Dacia has refreshed the design of its four signature models: the Logan, the Logan MCV, the Sandero and the Sandero Stepway. A wide range of engine options (including the new SCe 75) is also available, along with a choice of transmissions and new affordable equipment options. Meanwhile, the Duster can be equipped for the first time with EDC dual clutch automatic transmission for an even more enjoyable drive.

1.1 New Logan, Logan MCV, Sandero, Sandero Stepway ... always more !

Dacia has refreshed the exterior and interior design of its four signature models, namely the Logan, the Logan MCV, the Sandero and the Sandero Stepway. These enhancements embody Dacia‘s new, more assertive and even more modern lighting signature.

Exterior styling: even more modern and attractive

Dacia design is on the move. The models display a new lighting signature front and rear1 for an even more dynamic, contemporary look. The design of the front and rear lights has been revised. The front LED daytime running lights feature a pattern of four stacked rectangles.

The rear lighting signature is based on four illuminated squares.

The new Logan, the new Logan MCV and the new Sandero all share a more modern front bumper design, along with chrome detailing for the air intake grille. Meanwhile, the design of the front and rear bumpers2 has been reworked to emphasise the models’ muscular stance.

These design enhancements are shown to particularly powerful effect on the new Sandero Stepway. This model has a new frontal identity which picks up on the design cues of the Duster. The grille elegantly combines the black tones of the bumper with chrome detailing which brings an even more dynamic touch to the vehicle’s nose. 


At the rear, a chromed exhaust tailpipe highlights the car’s tough, ready-for-action character. Last but least, the brand’s range of wheel trims and alloy wheels has been updated (depending on individual markets and models).

Status-enhancing interior

The cabins of the new models have been upgraded, too, including a more elegant and more contemporary satin-effect chrome finish for the air vent surrounds, trim strip and centre console fascia. The new four-spoke steering wheel has the horn push in the centre and proudly displays the #dacia logo. The steering wheel on high-end versions stands out through its exclusive Soft Feel finish that is both durable and pleasant to the touch.

On the new Sandero Stepway, the interior door releases are now chrome plated. Models across the range come with new upholstery fabrics with textures and patterns that convey both a fresher feel and an impression of comfort. The upholstery of new Sandero Stepway features a 3D weave for a greater sensation of depth, enhanced by top-stitching.

Even more extensively equipped but still at an affordable price

The new Logan, new Logan MCV, new Sandero and new Sandero Stepway feature new driver aids designed to make driving even easier and more practical. A reversing camera (depending on version) and hill start assist simplify manoeuvring and, in response to customer feedback, #dacia has relocated the front and rear electric window switches to the door panels. For the driver, the window switch has a handy one-touch function, while comfort is further enhanced by a retractable armrest incorporated into the driver’s seat (depending on version). 

The cabin is as spacious as ever and even more practical thanks numerous stowage spaces, including a front mobile phone cubby and a tray on the side of the console to accommodate small items. The new centre console design incorporates a bottle holder at the rear. Also new is a 12-volt power socket which allows rear passengers to charge mobile devices.

A new engine, the SCe 75

Seven different powertrains are available from launch, including the new, Euro6 compliant SCe 75. This 75-horsepower, three-cylinder, 1.0-litre unit has benefited from Renault’s expertise. The result is a CO2 emissions and fuel consumption saving of almost 10%3 .
#dacia offers a broad range of engine-transmission combinations:

  • -  Petrol: SCe 75 / TCe 90 with Stop&Start (S&S) / TCe90 S&S LPG / TCe 90 S&S mated to Easy-R automated manual transmission.

  • -  Diesel: dCi 75 S&S / dCi 90 S&S with either a manual gearbox or automated Easy-R transmission.
