‘PARKER New Car Awards’ has awarded the Dacia Jogger the Best Value Car of the year 2023

A SEVEN-SEAT MPV, BUT IN DACIAS OWN UNIQUE FASHION

The Dacia Jogger is described as ‘blending the practicality of an estate car with the spaciousness of an MPV and the styling of an SUV’, and we reckon that’s spot on. This is a big car for small car money – a car that comfortably seats seven adults, or carries an impressive amount of gear. No wonder it won the Best Value Car for 2023 in the Parkers New Car Awards.

The Jogger is based on the same basic platform that underpins many Renault and Nissan products, including the Sandero and Clio superminis as well as the Captur SUV. But it’s stretched out to the max, making a car that’s more than 4.5m in length with a 2.9m wheelbase. That means loads of space inside, but with the driving dynamics of something much smaller.

Dacia’s making life really simple for Jogger buyers with just one engine at launch and three trim levels to choose from. All models come well-equipped, though, with essentials like air-con, parking sensors and cruise control as standard.

As for the engine, it’s a well-proven 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol that sees service elsewhere in Renault’s range, but if you want a diesel or an automatic gearbox you’re out of luck for now. However, in 2023 the range will be bolstered by Dacia’s first hybrid powertrain.
