What is the value of the Dacia Bigster offer at 353 euros per month?

From a starting price of 24,990 euros, the Dacia Bigster is now offered in long-term leasing for 353 euros per month.

At an attractive price, Dacia’s large SUV features a hybrid engine right from the base model. This strategy allows the brand to differentiate the Bigster from its smaller sibling, the Duster. The latter, still available with a gasoline/LPG engine, is aimed at customers looking for accessible models under the 20,000 euro mark or those hesitant about electrification. Besides its electrified engine, the Bigster stands out with superior equipment: 17-inch alloy wheels and improved acoustic insulation from the base version. These choices signify Dacia’s move upmarket while avoiding direct internal competition with the Duster. With a range extending from the Sandero to the Bigster, Dacia demonstrates impressive mastery of its product strategy.

From the Essential trim, which we are interested in, the Bigster offers a rich equipment package tailored to expectations: 17-inch alloy wheels, fixed roof rails, a 10.1-inch central screen paired with a 7-inch digital dashboard, manual air conditioning, parking sensors and rear camera, as well as electric windows in the front and rear. This equipment makes it a modern and practical family vehicle.

Under the hood, the entry-level version of the Bigster comes with a mild hybrid system, combining a 1.2-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder gasoline engine with a 48 V battery. Although this system does not allow for 100% electric driving, it optimizes startup and acceleration phases while reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. With an average consumption of 5.6 l/100 km and limited emissions of 129 g/km, this SUV is part of an eco-friendly approach. The ecological penalty remains limited to 450 euros. Furthermore, the presence of a 6-speed manual gearbox will appeal to traditional driving enthusiasts.

The long-term rental offer (LLD) with no down payment is available until the end of February, for 49 months and 50,000 km. This is a smart and coherent choice for a completely new model, ideal to keep for four years before considering a potential renewal. This formula includes four years of maintenance, helping to manage the budget. At the end of four years, the total cost amounts to 17,297 euros, which is 69% of the cash purchase price. Although this amount may seem high, it remains acceptable considering the included maintenance, absence of initial payment, and the fact that it is a true new model.
