Not quite Duster in XL size, but a bit all the same, the Bigster is Dacia’s new offering. A large SUV that allows 4×4 outings and innovations.

Dacia Bigster: it couldn’t be clearer, it’s the big Dacia. It takes elements of the Duster, but it is a car which also has its own elements. For example, the bumper is in the same material as the Duster, with 20% reused polypropylene and is used raw, without painting. On the other hand, at the technological level, the Bigster has a 7 or 10 inch digital instrument panel depending on the finish. The 10.1-inch central infotainment screen is standard for all. Bigster is a 5-seater car, but with a large modular trunk, motorized tailgate and hands-free key. The new YouClip system offers 5 attachment points for attaching accessories in the passenger compartment and trunk.

OK for LPG

This 4.57 m long SUV also introduces the Hybrid 155 engine. 155 hp distributed between the 1.8 liter petrol engine of 107 hp, a 50 hp electric motor and a high voltage starter/generator. The other engines are 48 V mild hybrids. The TCe, however, increases to 140 hp. For off-road use, the 4-wheel drive version is equipped with the same 1.2 liter 3-cylinder turbo engine, but keeping the 130 hp. Dacia continues to rely on LPG with the 140 hp Eco-G engine with a gasoline and gas range of 1,450 km. Dacia will offer the Bigster from €25,000.
