Excellent review. One of the best. Im a renault captur driver and saw one of the in the showroom when mine went for service. Seriously considering one of these.
These cars are just cheaper Renault s.same engine and gearbox I looking to get a Dacia bigster next in late 2025when out as other brands of cars are severely overpriced
It's an interesting transmission, completely different from Toyota, and not the dreadful typical CVT either. I've gone for a Corolla Touring though, but it's more expensive and I have to wait, and wait... But a jogger was definitely on the menu. Maybe not the he hybrid though.
I have a 2012 Prius, I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that this IS the Toyota system (maybe on licence?) with simulated gearshifts. It seems very similar to me based on this video and others.
we rented out jogger with 1 liter engine and with 4 adults and 2 children, it did ok, was surprised for 1 liter with full car. only letdown was you had to use your mobile phone to get radio stations , seats were so so for comfort. not great. and carpet was rubbish. shed like a dog. so would hope this hybrid is better with bigger engine but would interior is better.
Great car but not worth the extra £6k it costs in the UK over the standard 1.0. You would never recover that extra cost in fuel savings so it renders it kind of pointless. Thats why i've stuck to my Logan MCV diesel. 4.3l/100km all day every day.
someone getting the car on motability will see about £1000 difference in advance payment. So i’d expect the bulk will go to motability, fleet or personal lease. As you say cash buyers would be less inclined unless they must have auto gearbox
Good review. What I would like to know is how does the hybrid version handle hills with and without weight. I saw a video or two where the 1litre petrol version struggles with hills and even more so when there's weight. I'm curious if the hybrid handles it better
climatic system impact in consumption is according to the outside temperature. Your filming seems to be done around 20-23 degrees outside. it is another thing when you have 35-40 degrees on the road. Edit: since you said 14 degrees outside, no relevant impact from the climatic system... Do a tests at 35 degrees outside and you will have 0.5 liters more, at least
That's incorrect. Enabling AC turns the compressor on which is belt driven by the crankshaft of the engine. Regardless of the outside temperature the consumption is the same.
It cant regenerate during braking so much, capacity of battery is not so big. So electric motor is also not so big and this is impossible to regenerating braking like pure electric car or plugin
"D" mode is better for drive in the open roads when you don't want to lose speed when your leg is removed from the pedal. "B" mode is better for declines and city driving, where you need to slow down more frequently and more intensely. With Hybrids, more engine braking means more power to the battery. And the pros are those you need at the moment you are at. It is good to have those options and that you can switch while driving.
@@Theomba1 Thanks! I've read that changing often from "D" to "B" wears out transmission faster and using the breaks and wearing those out is cheaper in the long run. What do you think?
@@DeclanCarey Well, that could be true, I do not have real live experience with it. However, I don't see a reason for changing modes while driving. If you are in the city use B, when you are leaving the city you can switch to D at some point while waiting at the traffic light. I assume there is no additional wearing if you are making changes while stopped.
Thank you for your videos about Dacia Jogger hybrid! - very interesting insights here. Even if this car comes with good technics it´s a little bit too expensive in my opinion. with 28kEu I would prefer Suzuki Swace Year-old car or Toyota Corolla touring for 22-24k, save money and have better sound proofing and solid, proven technology. =/ Maybe as year-old the jogger could be a better bang-for-the-buck, we will see. ^^
Santos in B mode the car have same power but when you release the acceleration the car will regenerate more energy in battery, will act like a brake but from electric motor
You should never use b mode and use the gas pedal at the same time, b mode is simply to regen the energy with the help of engine braking. That's why when you drive even low speed the engine was screaming
@@EngnGnr Incorrect: B mode does not use engine for braking, it uses the electric motor as a dynamo to return regenerated electricity into the battery. The reason the car isn't always in regen braking mode is because some people aren't used to their car braking on its own, so it's good to have an option for that, and on a highway you might wanna keep the speed up.
@@Daumex I have a chr hybrid and trust me I know what is B mode is, you can regenerate more energy by doing the regenerative braking yourself, tested and fact. B mode does regenerate too but you lose some of the energy by engine braking.
But is it still a cheap car? Because that's what most Dacia lovers want. 6 years ago i bought a brand new Logan mcv bi-fuel for about 15000 euro. Now i have to pay double the price for a Dacia jogger. Very disappointing.
Salut Dan je vous aime bien mais c'est quand même maladif et consternant ce besoin que certains testeurs (dont toi) ont de faire des essais intégralement en mode B. Le mode B n'est pas conçu pour optimiser la régénération mais pour générer du frein moteur ce qui est totalement contre productif dans une optique d'efficience, sauf en longue descente. J'ai simplement le sentiment que vous ne savez pas conduire correctement un véhicule hybride. La règle de base de l'efficience en hybride est le "pulse and drive" qui vise a reduire le maximum les echanges inutiles avec la batterie, échanges qui génèrent des pertes. Vous faites tout le contraire 🤣. Je pense que vous devriez suivre un stage de conduite hybride ou bien à minima lire les modes d'emplois des véhicules (!).
Barennes from what i know and also on Dacia website you will find info’s that said : B Mode - ideal whether you are in town or in the mountains - this mode accentuates braking during deceleration phases and increases regeneration on energy back in battery. Not all B Modes are the same. As you said Toyota ones is different from this one 👍 But good point make me research more
@@SDADanCars impossible. I find it fascinating how can all cars get such a high value. I think you should transform your system to be more realistic. I have driven this dacia. For sure it is good value for money but i would never score it 9.9, maybe 8 if i am generous. Put 4 people with laguagge in it and see a consumption then at normal highway speed not a bus like. What is the noise in cabin at 130 or 140?
@@John2710 5 people and luggage, barely any drop in MPG. The MPG is better on highways than it is around town/short journeys. The noise in the cabin is fine at 130, but not so fine at 140. But 130 is way beyond the speed limit here, and 140 way beyond the speed limits I've encountered in Europe.
(specifically I was getting 48 normally, on my own, it went down to 45 with luggage and people, I get more reductions when its terrible weather than with more people).
Yeah fuck all this hybrid and ev shit. I want to enjoy my journey, not have constant battery anxiety. Eyes glued to the gauge going "come on go go charge" 🖕 Also, I don't get why all you reviewers jump on the "highway hybrid range" test? The system is designed to save fuel in stop and go traffic in towns going 30 mph, its not going to be impressive on the highway compared to a regular car no matter what you do.
Very ugly car dashboard. This car is generally not loved, even though it is technologically advanced. It is only aimed at buyers with the "cold" logic of "value for money"
Very interesting test. Thanks !
We ordered this car in march here in Lausanne. We will get it in september. Can't wait
Nice 👌 Good choice Cedric
Hey im assuming its been a while since you got the car, what you think about it? Im thinking to get one as a family car.
12:03 the speedometer got censored once you are 5 km/h too fast 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Best part of the video. Good to do that in Switzerland though.
Great video &review Dan 👌 Dacia making some seriously good cars nowadays.
Yea for sure 👍Thanks for feedback 🙏😊

Merci Dan pour cet Essai
B- is braking gear)) and it's mostly used on way down from heels or when you will brake soon
Yes true … is like a low gear !! My bad
Very nice test, thanks for your work!
Thanks Morty 🙏👍🤗
I'm waiting for the new duster. And decide to buy lpg or hybrid. I need to do some calcs.. Dacia realy do racional and now cool cars.
Yea they are growing now alot
Are the buttons on the drivers door and on the steering wheek alluminated? And the noice in the car, how is this compared with other cars?
I cant remember exactly the buttons
check minute 2:35 when he drives in the tunnel, it looks like they are lighting up just a little
@@mrclausholm thank you very much.
I can see that you normally drive a manual car because every time you accelerate your hand is on the gear lever ready to change gear. 😀😀😀
😁👍Yes bad habits

It does not depend on the load(smart ecological air conditioner)

Interesting. Jogger is 22 with discounts in Romania, 26k without. Toyota Corolla Touring is 30k without discounts. Swace lower spec is cheaper/
Nu am reuşit să văd pe unde conduci, în românia?
Nice car!
When I will have the car I am going to make a decent movie . and give the link to you and then you will see how you do test of such a beautiful car
Have I understood correctly that if the car is in B mode, the car has less power. Does it feel less smooth then?

Euro Ncap rating of 1 is the deal breaker for me considering it's a family vehicle you'd expect better it's virtually a death box.
It's not though, it gets a low rating due to some of the electronic systems but the actual structure is fine
because less assistant. Its a modern car but you are the boss not the computer
