The Dacia Sandero becomes one of the best-selling cars in Europe
- Since its launch, the Dacia Sandero has been one of the few low-priced cars in the B segment with an combustion engine available on the European market (11,000 euros to 12,300 euros), as no other manufacturer has managed to launch a model for such a price in this segment. The Fiat Panda (€12,000) is from a lower segment (A-segment), and the Hyundai I10 and the Kia Picanto from the A-segment are more expensive (over €12,500).
- Since 2021, the Dacia Sandero benefits from the platform of the latest Renault Clio models, whose price starts at 17,000 euros. Even a Renault Twingo is more expensive (over 15,500 euros). The Sandero is therefore in a category of its own on the European market, which accounts for its success. Ranked fifth in this market at the beginning of 2021, it will be third from the end of 2021. As of summer 2022, it is now in second place behind the Peugeot 208, which has led the European market since the beginning of this year, overtaking the previous market leader, the Volkswagen Golf. It is followed by the Opel Corsa and the Renault Clio.
- Since January 1, 2021, 351,000 Peugeot 208s, 306,000 Volkswagen Golfs, 298,000 Dacia Sanderos, 285,000 Opel Corsas and 280,000 Renault Clios have been sold. It wasn't until 2022 that sales of the Dacia Sandero overtook those of the Renault Clio, and the gap between the two models has widened since last spring. Indeed, why buy a car for 17 000 euros when you can get practically the same car for 11 000 or 12 000 euros? It should be noted that the Sandero leads in purchases made by private individuals.
