With the Striker, Dacia launches a new hybrid family estate that can compete with SUVs in terms of practicality while promising an unbeatable price.
As estates gradually disappear from European catalogs in favor of SUVs, Dacia takes the market by surprise with the Striker. Unveiled on July 8, this new family estate measuring 4.62 meters adds to a rapidly expanding range following the successes of the Sandero, Duster, Jogger, and, more recently, the Bigster.
The Dacia Striker focuses primarily on functionality. Its 600-liter trunk is one of the most generous in its category, while its slightly elevated architecture provides a driving position similar to that of an SUV without the drawbacks in terms of weight or consumption. This proposition could appeal to families looking for a spacious, economical, and more rational vehicle than a crossover.
An estate that doesn’t lack style
On the technical side, the Striker uses the platform of the Bigster as well as the latest electrified engines from the Renault group. Customers will be able to choose between mild hybrid versions of 140 hp, GPL variants depending on the markets, and the Hybrid 155 engine. The main novelty is the introduction of a Hybrid 4×4 drivetrain using an electric motor on the rear axle, a technology that allows for all-wheel drive without a driveshaft.
Another major argument will obviously be the price of the Dacia Striker. The final pricing will only be officially announced when orders open, expected in the fall, but a starting price below 24,000 euros is anticipated. If this estimate holds true, the Striker will become one of the most accessible hybrid estates on the European market.
