Dacia Sandero and Logan MCV range updated with new Blue dCi 95 engine

Dacia has added its latest Blue dCi 95 diesel engine to the Sandero and Logan MCV ranges. On sale now, prices for the new engine start from £10,395 in the Sandero, £12,895 in the Logan MCV and £14,095 in the Logan MCV Stepway.

The new turbocharged four-cylinder diesel produces 94bhp and 220Nm of torque. In the Sandero, it’s capable of a 0-62mph time of 11.9 seconds and a top speed of 111mph. The Logan takes slightly longer to get from 0-62mph due to its added weight, with a time of 12.6 seconds. The top speed remains the same as the Sandero, though.
