Design & Presence

The Sandero wears honesty like an accessory: simple lines, upright stance and a no-nonsense face that won’t embarrass at the supermarket or on a weekend escape. Length sits at just over 4.08 m, with a compact footprint that makes parking straightforward and the Stepway variant adding a few millimetres of ride height for a tougher look. Build is deliberately utilitarian rather than premium, with functional details prioritising cost and durability over flash. Overall it looks modern enough without trying to be a fashion statement.

Interior & Usability

Inside the Sandero the theme is clear: practical, hard-wearing materials and wide, logical controls rather than soft-touch luxury. The dashboard layout is simple, storage is generous and seats are supportive for daily commutes, though some surfaces and trim remain hard plastic. Infotainment is basic but functional with smartphone mirroring on available screens, making connectivity straightforward without an overcomplicated interface. Controls are easy to use on the move, which is the point for a car aimed at straightforward motoring.

Space & Everyday Practicality

Space is a strong suit: five-seat accommodation feels generous for the class, with decent headroom and a flat-ish rear bench for two adults or three kids. The boot offers 328 litres of luggage space in normal mode and expands to up to 1,108 litres with the rear seats folded, enough for weekly shopping, buggies or a weekend of luggage. Payload capacity sits around the low 400 kg mark, so carrying people and groceries won’t be an issue but heavy loads will reveal the limits. Practical touches such as wide door openings and simple seatbacks make loading and day-to-day use straightforward.

Driving & Handling

The Sandero is tuned for comfort and ease rather than outright sportiness: steering is light, ride is compliant and the chassis soaks up town bumps well, while body control is adequate on faster roads but not sporty. Engine choices range from a frugal 67 hp SCe unit up to a punchier 110 hp TCe for those who want brisker motorway progress, with 0–100 km/h times running roughly from the mid-16s to around 10 seconds depending on the engine. Manual gearboxes are the norm and a CVT is available on some versions, with front-wheel drive only and predictable behaviour under everyday conditions. The result is an easy, confidence-building drive that prioritises low running costs over performance thrills.

Efficiency/Consumption & Range

Fuel consumption is one of the Sandero’s selling points, with combined figures typically between about 5.3 and 7.1 l/100 km depending on engine and whether the LPG option is fitted, translating to low running costs for commuting and longer trips. Fuel tank sizes vary (around 32–50 litres depending on version), so a 50-litre tank with mid-5 l/100 km consumption will cover well over 800 km between fill-ups in mixed driving. LPG versions reduce petrol costs further but can change range and boot intrusion, so buyers should weigh fuel economy against everyday packaging. In short, the Sandero is designed to be cheap to run and easy to keep on the road.

Assistance & Infotainment

Equipment is focused on essentials rather than luxury driver aids: the Sandero offers practical systems such as cruise control, parking sensors and lane assistance on higher trims, while more advanced ADAS found on premium rivals is largely absent. Infotainment systems deliver basic navigation and smartphone mirroring; the interface is straightforward and usable but lacks the slickness and features of pricier competitors. Safety equipment and assistance are adequate for everyday driving, though buyers seeking the latest semi-autonomous tech will need to look elsewhere. The package is coherent for its price point — useful, not extravagant.

Who is it for?

The Dacia Sandero is aimed squarely at budget-conscious buyers who want a roomy, practical hatchback with low running costs rather than bells and whistles. It suits first-time buyers, city commuters, small families and anyone prioritising value, simple operation and cargo versatility over luxury finishes or high performance. The Stepway variant adds a rugged look and a touch more practicality for light rural duties, while the LPG options are attractive to those chasing the lowest possible fuel costs. For sensible motoring on a budget the Sandero remains one of the clearest choices in its segment.
