The brand reinvents the family model with up to 7 seats and makes it accessible to everyone

Dacia breaks established codes and reinvents a versatile and affordable family car. In a 5 or 7-seat version, versatile thanks to its record-breaking habitability and modularity, the Jogger confirms the Renault Group brand’s commitment to making mobility available to everyone, sustainable mobility, as it will soon be offered with a hybrid engine. With the new Jogger, Dacia reinvents the family model with up to 7 seats and makes it accessible to everyone. The Jogger brings together the best of every category: the length of a ‘family vacation’, the space of a ‘combi’ and the features of an SUV. And that for a truly unbeatable price: from 14,900 euros.

With a length of 4.55 m and a generous wheelbase of 2.90 m, the Dacia Jogger offers the best space on the market. The height of the seat cushion (+ 55 mm difference between rows 1 and 2; + 25 mm difference between rows 2 and 3) provides more comfort in the rear seat. Rows 2 and 3 offer just as good comfort as the front and room for feet and knees. Dacia Jogger offers the best accessibility in row 3 thanks to the tilting mechanism of the second row. A roof height of 855mm and knee room (127mm) in row 3 are among the best of any 7-seater on the market, comfortably fitting two adults on board.

The Jogger is equipped with the new 110 hp TCe petrol engine with a six-speed manual transmission. The average consumption of this propellant starts at 5.7 liters. The new TCe 110 has variable timing, variable displacement oil pump and uses much more efficient materials to improve performance and reduce fuel consumption. The integrated exhaust manifold, particulate filter and central injector help to reduce CO2 emissions.

Dacia is the only manufacturer to offer a complete range of bicarbonate petrol and LPG vehicles under the name 100 ECO-G. Factory integration of this technology is a guarantee of safety and reliability. The length of the manufacturer’s warranty, the service intervals and costs and the luggage compartment are identical to those of a petrol version (the LPG tank replaces the spare wheel). The average consumption of the 100 ECO-G engine is 7.4 liters. On LPG, the Jogger emits an average of 10% less CO2 emissions (compared to a comparable petrol engine). In addition, it offers more than 1,000 km of autonomy thanks to its two tanks: 40 liters for LPG and 50 liters for petrol. This technology is endorsed by obtaining the ECO label, awarded by the General Directorate of Traffic, which gives access to benefits such as reduced public parking rates, tax exemptions and the possibility of access to city centers.

The Dacia Jogger offers stability and good handling on the road, thanks to the generous wheelbase of 2.90 meters and the width of the front and rear tracks, which means that it literally lies on the road. The electric power steering with variable assistance makes driving easy on all road surfaces and at any speed. Equipped with large diameter wheels, its long wheelbase of 2.90 m, its height under the roof and its vertical rear section (vertical taillights, very wide tailgate, low sill) allow more interior space, including the volume of the trunk (708 litres, in the 5-seater version and 828 liters, in the 7-seat version). With a body length of 4.55 meters, the Jogger is the longest vehicle in the Dacia range. The towing capacity is 625 kg in the unbraked version and up to 1,200 kg in the braked version. To facilitate and secure transport, the trunk is fitted with elastic tensioners and four lashing rings. The operation of the trunk release is electric and is hidden under the tailgate band. Vertical taillights maximize the width of the tailgate opening for easy loading.

From the second trim level, the Dacia Jogger is equipped with roof racks that can be easily adapted to any displacement. In the longitudinal position they contribute to the design without compromising the aerodynamics of the vehicle, and in the transverse position they can be used as roof racks and can carry up to 80 kg (bikes, skis, roof box, etc.). Dacia Jogger offers the best habitability on the market. The height of the seat cushion (+ 55 mm difference between rows 1 and 2; + 25 mm difference between rows 2 and 3) provides more comfort in the rear seat. Rows 2 and 3 offer just as good comfort as the front and room for feet and knees. The Jogger offers the best third-row accessibility thanks to a second-row tilt mechanism.

The new Dacia Jogger includes three multimedia offers, depending on the version: Media Control which can be operated with or without a smartphone, Media Display with an 8-inch touchscreen or Media Nav with navigation and smartphone replication with Wi-Fi. The Media Control device at the beginning of the range is already a very complete multimedia system. This equipment includes two loudspeakers, a smartphone docking station integrated directly into the dashboard design, Bluetooth and USB connections, steering wheel controls and the display of radio information on the 3.5-inch TFT digital screen of the on-board computer.

Other equipment completes the standard offer: cruise control and speed limiters on the steering wheel and automatic lighting of the lights. Optional extras are also offered, such as heated front seats, automatic climate control with digital display, hands-free card with remote opening of the trunk, automatic activation of the windscreen wipers, electric parking brake, reversing camera, blind detection, spot and parking aids front and rear.

Among the safety measures and driving assistance of the new Dacia Jogger is the assisted emergency braking, active between 7 and 170 km/h. The system detects the distance to the vehicle in front via the front radar (detection from 7 to 80 km/h for a stationary vehicle). If a risk of a collision is detected, the system warns the driver visually and acoustically before boosting the performance of the braking system if the driver brakes but the risk is still present; at the same time, it brakes automatically or with greater intensity if the driver does not brake or does not brake sufficiently.

The blind spot detector is active between 30 km/h and 140 km/h and warns the driver of a possible side or rear collision with another vehicle. Four ultrasonic sensors (two at the rear and two at the front of the vehicle) detect moving vehicles, including two-wheelers, in the blind spot. If there is a vehicle in the blind spot, an LED lights up in the door mirror on the relevant side. In addition, the Jogger is equipped as standard with a speed limiter and the latest generation ESC stability control and optional cruise control with steering wheel controls, depending on the finishes.

The parking assist system consists of four ultrasonic sensors at the front and four at the rear, a reversing camera and dynamic guidance lines. It allows easy maneuvering thanks to audible and visual warnings. Hill Start Assist prevents the vehicle from rolling back for two seconds when the driver takes their foot off the brake pedal to depress the accelerator and continue driving after stopping uphill.
