The new Dacia Sandero is a supermini with a difference - its rugged nature and styling, combined with its fuel efficiency and bank-friendly price, make it a difficult one to resist. While there are undoubtedly better-known brands of small car available on the market, the Sandero should be on your shortlist if what you want is a down to earth car that is reliable, stylish and handles both safety and performance well.
Handling and performance
As with most small cars, the Dacia Sandero focuses more on fuel efficiency and keeping CO2 emissions as low as possible than it does on reaching 0-60mph in a lightning fast time. So while you shouldn't expect big things in terms of acceleration, you can certainly expect it to be zippy in urban settings and happy to cruise the motorways.
Safety features
It's safe to say that the Romanian car brand does not shirk its safety responsibilities and it comes with driver, passenger and front side air bags as standard.
