BUY, LEASE OR FINANCE A DACIA JOGGER FROM OSV - bit.ly/3S7U07z
Dacia's Jogger aims to blend the sensible virtues of an estate car with the usefulness of a compact seven-seat MPV and the style of an SUV. All at affordable pricing that will see you doing a double take. It gets modern engineering tech too.

Background
You'd have thought in today's market that every conceivable market niche would have been filled. Yet in the rush to deliver every conceivable kind of SUV, one segment has been ignored; that for a truly affordable 7-seat family car. And who better to fill that niche than Dacia?
If you want seven seats in a family car these days - even in a converted van - you'll need well over £20,000, which Dacia thinks is ridiculous. So the company has taken its Sandero hatchback and lengthened its platform enough to insert a third seating row, so creating this car, the Jogger. At the same time with this model, there are Crossover-inspired looks a world away from the dull conformity of the forgettable Dacia compact estate this contender effectively replaces, the Logan MCV. The Jogger has even been engineered with the option of Dacia's first hybrid engine.
Driving Experience
Almost all Joggers are going to be sold in TCe 110 form, with a 1.0-litre three cylinder petrol turbo unit that produces 108bhp and nearly all of its maximum 200Nm pulling power from just 1,700rpm. It's mated to 6-speed manual transmission. The alternative to this unit will eventually be a 1.6-litre petrol hybrid powerplant with a dual electric motor and 1.2 kWh battery set-up borrowed from the Renault Clio supermini. Dacia expects the Jogger Hybrid to be able to run up to 80% of its time on electricity in urban driving.
Across the range, under the skin sits the stiffer, more sophisticated Renault CMF-B platform lately introduced into Dacia's Sandero hatch. Don't expect this to deliver particularly engaging handling dynamics; this car isn't intended for that kind of driving. But it'll be easy to use in town, thanks to a light electrically powered steering system that requires little effort to turn at low speeds. There's an 11.7-metre kerb-to-kerb turning circle.
There's more camera safety kit than used to be on Dacias. This one gets an Automatic Emergency Braking System (AEBS). And can be fitted with Blind Spot Warning, which illuminates an LED light within the door mirror to warn the driver if another vehicle may be concealed from view.
Design and Build
The Jogger is the longest model Dacia makes, measuring 4.5m thanks to the 30cm wheelbase increase it enjoys over its Sandero hatch stablemate. You'll spot the visual SUV vibe here - 200mm of ground clearance, modular roof bars and scuff plates see to that. And disguise the fact that from the B-pillar forwards, everything is pretty much the same as a Sandero. There is though, a 40mm step up at the rear to offer the additional height and width needed for the extra seating row. Under the skin lies a modern Renault CMF-B platform.
Inside, there's quite a modern dashboard, embellished with fabric finishes. Infotainment is based around an 8-inch centre monitor with smartphone mirroring. Access to the second row is easy thanks to the 2.9-metre wheelbase, with wide-opening doors and reasonable knee room; you could seat a couple of adults there reasonably. The rear-most chairs are obviously only for kids and reaching them requires a little bit of athleticism. With these extra pews in place, the boot volume is only up to 213-litres, so you won't fit in more than a few shopping bags with all the rows in place. These additional pews don't slide or fold into the floor, so when you're not using them and you need extra boot space, you have to take them out (fortunately, they only weigh 10kg each), freeing up as much as 712-litres of space.

Nice review. Looking for another family member. Back in the day, I had a Ford Galaxy MPV (GBP15K ish new so some time ago)...This looks just the right tool for most family usage cases: School runs with shopping in between, the local 3 kids / 2 labradors run and of course the seldom but fully loaded 2 or 3 hr trips. Shame no simple dimming control for the info screen but that first-world nuisance oversight aside I think Dacia has done great. Driver Lumbar is available and that would be very real-world workable (price in mind)......Most families want this type of vehicle to last the entire period of time they need such a tool. Dacia is close to bullseye for their target audience I think.

I've had dreadful problems with mine. The main ones: 1. Power loss after idling for a few minutes in traffic. Turbo will not engage/spool up when pulling away. No warning lights, smoothly up through the revs, but no power at all. 2. All warning lights come on at once, power cuts, steering goes heavy and after a few seconds the car restarts. This happens whilst driving. Very scary. 3. Bad noise (like a bad bearing) when using AC that rises with the rpm, and continues after the rpm of the engine has dropped again (like when pulling up to a junction, slowing down) for a few seconds - like an overrun. Dacia replaced the AC compressor but still has not fixed. Getting worse and was not there from new.

Fantastic comprehensive review as usual. The only extra points I can add is if you have two isofix child seats in place in the outer seats of the middle row you won't be able to climb into the rear two seats. Unless through the rear hatch. Also the seat belt for the middle seat in the second row comes from the roof above the heads of the rear passengers. This said we are a Dacia family and a Jogger maybe our 3rd new one purchased.

To be fair there aren't many 7 seaters in that class that can support that movement between rows with the child seats up.

When I saw this unveiled I heard the ball Suzuki UK dropped in using their options for this market. Suzuki has 2 great value for money 7 seaters in the form of the Ertiga and XL7 the former is is a MPV and the latter is a MpV/SUV. They both have mild hybrid versions the uk market gets hot and bothered for and are also paired with decent(not performance driven) 1.5l engines(the ones in the newest iteration of the Vitara and while the XL7 currently doesn't have that engine its 6 sweater version which is identical to it platform wise, does)that are fantastically fuel effecient. What it would need is the camera driven safety tech that again the uk market gets so hot and bothered for and 6 airbags(the platform unfortunately only supports 4, to add curtain airbags the roof would need to be re-engineered). Instead Suzuki UK was busy re configuring the Vitara making it less peppy and slightly more fuel efficient🤦.

@kenzohkw 2 жыл бұрын

Folk in the UK are not interested in MPvs anymore, they are too busy trying to be Insta-cool with their impractical SUVs. Suzuki will know this so no point even trying to sell a practical box on wheels. I've been looking for a decent van shaped MPV but very nothing really exists anymore. This is as close as i can get that doesn't cost a fortune. The Jogger will do well because its cheap. Suzuki cannot sell there MPV at anything near this price so they don't even bother.

Disagree on rear USB. A cheap low profile twin USB adapter does the job nicely for when the kids are using their infotainment. For everything else there's still the full sized socket. Another thing manufacturers and it has to be said reviewers seem to latch onto that's in the wrong direction: like auto tailgate and un ergonomic removal of physical switchgear that forces you to use infotainment screens for the simplest of operations...
