Dacia Sandero 3.Generation SCe 65 Essential - Long-range vehicle

Is the Dacia Sandero suitable for long distances? If one asks the question whether this motor vehicle is also suitable for longer highway stages, one has to consider different aspects, comfort, tank volume, top speed...

The tank capacity (50 liters) is rather average in size, but in conjunction with the good average consumption (5 liters / 100km), you can sometimes cover very long ranges with the Dacia Sandero. An important criterion for frequent drivers: the top speed. This is 158 km/h and is therefore less suitable for long distances, as any intermediate sprints simply take too long. Comfort and interior space are at least as important on long journeys. With 4088 mm length, the car is rather one of the smaller ones. You should not expect too much comfort here (suspension, seat upholstery, noise insulation).

The integrated distance cruise control ensures both safe and relaxed travel by automatically maintaining both the speed and the distance to the vehicle in front. Of course, air conditioning is a must for comfortable journeys. Here, even an automatic air conditioning system is installed, i.e. the air volume and temperature is automatically adjusted to the interior temperature, while a simple air conditioning system has to be operated manually.

The Dacia Sandero achieves decent ranges thanks to its moderate average consumption, but as a compact-class vehicle it is often deprived of comfort features such as comfortable seats suitable for long journeys and appropriate noise insulation. Be sure to check possible additional options. Therefore, a limited recommendation for frequent drivers.
