Dacia's Journey: From 2005's Logan to Today's Bigster
Dacia, a Romanian car manufacturer founded in 1966 and part of the Renault Group since 1999, made headlines in 2005 with the launch of its Logan sedan. This model, built from Renault's leftover technology, was marketed as an affordable, economy car. The Logan, priced at an initial €7,200, came packed with standard features including a three-year warranty, ESP, side airbags, power steering, climate control, electric window lifters, and central locking. Its practicality was further enhanced by the ability to remove the rear bench, allowing for extended carrying capacity when transporting bulky goods. Dacia's Bigster, a more recent model, offers a seat height of 64 cm, providing a comfortable driving experience. Despite the misconception, Dacia was not founded in the 2000s; instead, it was further developed and expanded during this period, building on its existing heritage. From its origins in 1966 to the present day, Dacia has consistently offered affordable, practical cars. The Logan's launch in 2005 exemplified this, and modern models like the Bigster continue this tradition, demonstrating Dacia's commitment to value and comfort.
