I also listened to the whole video and ... nothing! I initially up voted this video but it feels like the title is only click bait to imply there's a problem with the car. I hate click bait titles. Now down voted :-(
Thanks for the feedback. I did not intend the title to be clickbait, I thought It was a good indication of the Hybrid drivetrain which I did talk about in the video. But with the feedback I decided to change the title as I do not intend to do clickbait. Thanks :)
@@andisalt321 Of course, there is no point of me not responding to feedback. Without an audience I might as well not create any content :) So feedback is the most important thing for me
I was considering one when I replace my current car, but when they discontinued the 4WD manual diesel option they lost me as a potential customer. Pity as I thought they were a good economical option.
It’s the request of EU normes.. sooner or later all will discontinue diesel.. as a diesel user i was also disappointed, but after driving gas engine (forced because i was driving company cars) - at the beginning i didn’t like it, after about 6 months i got used.. now - i wouldn’t drive again diesel.. it takes more time to switch from diesel to gas…
The new model looks cool but lacks certain features that add to user comfort and ease of use: the 4x4 should have been the 1.3tce in mild hybrid setup (the 4x4 fans wouldn't mind paying extra), soft touch door armrest, existed in the former model that was cheaper. GIVE BACK THE 150HP!
When it comes to engine choices, the current offer is there because of pollution reasons. The 1,3 TCE would've polluted to much. As for the soft arm rest, the Extreme trim has some fabric there, but I agree that there has been some cost cutting from the previous model, but it has improved in other areas.
Don t know others, but i never place my hand on the « rest arm » on the doors.. i use only the rest arm in between the sits.. but.. it’s maybe just about my style of driving..
I watched this video and found it very informative but I when you said it was a bit expensive to buy versus what you save in Petrol I would be very great full for your advice would it be suitable as a Taxi. Looking forward to the next video and your advice 16:12
Thanks for the kind comment. If used as a taxi I thing it would have benefits in terms of fuel consumption due to the fact that you will mainly use it in the city which a full hybrid system is the best at. As a taxi driver you will be doing a lot of kilometers with the car and therefore I think over time the saved fuel will overweigh the added cost of the full hybrid compared to the 130 variant. Also a 4 cylinder might need less maintenance as it will not constantly used like the 3 cylinder.
@@tomsam1314 yeah it sure is, what exactly are you trying to critic ? Like I said in my final statement: it’s an average car, which for this price is a great car…

@@21_my_pobedim10 hey, thanks for the comment. Anything above 120 is not comfortable to drive at for a longer distance, 100 is fine however still fairly loud. The car has a lot and I mean a lot of wind noise. Even if there is no wind at all outside, it will still sound like your flying in a jet. This is very noticeable at around 140 upwards. I will upload a video in 2 todays regarding a consumption test on the autobahn, where you can hear the cabin noise at 80,120,140 and top speed.
They ruined a nice car by making the car inside so plastic it’ll damage and scratch so easily and once scratched you won’t be able to get panels etc repaired inside
Plastic is much harder to ruin than fabric or ledder from other car brands. Never heard "be careful you will scratch my seats" from a Dacia owner. Heard many of these from other brands.
Sorry, I had to intention to make the video clickbait but the Why? is an indication for why the car only offers a 3 cylinder and the lack of 4x4 variants and automatics.

Your government is scamming you
The best buy is the one with GPL. Very long range for that one, and not that expencive.

Its beautiful! 😊
What are you expecting exactly? It’s a lot more affordable than other cars on the market!

@@NonstopDrivingReviewsHow much does the average SUV costs these days? 40-50.000€ ?
I think you can get more for the same price
Like the MG HS for example
Still, nice review 👌
A car that I've been wanting to test for a long time. Hopefully we can in the near future. Thanks for the kind words :) a sub would mean a lot
Smaller boot, higher consumption, worse built quality

Hi, thanks for your video! What is your opinion on noise insulation when the speed is above 100 kmh?
@@21_my_pobedim10 hey, thanks for the comment. Anything above 120 is not comfortable to drive at for a longer distance, 100 is fine however still fairly loud.

@@NonstopDrivingReviewsmusic off?
@@ChrisGreeceChris yes, but having the music on doesn’t change much.
Near 90km/hr, there is a gear change that's super loud.. below and above, car is quite silent. It's a great car. I have been using for 1 month.
Pour moi le seul modèle intéressant est le GPL. Au delà les prix s’envolent. Le MG hybride + en donne plus pour moins cher.
Paul McCartney from 1971 is doing car reviews in a German accent?
What more could you ask for 😂 actually not the first time I’ve been called Paul McCartney
link for the other video you mentioned 5times maybe put it in discription..
@@Liebenz87 I will once I’ve finished editing and uploaded it later today. (4PM CET :) )
How did the seats feel in the journey? I believe they don't have adjustable lumbar support.
Depending on the trim, I think, they do have lumbar support, or at least the driver's side, and the passenger seat also can have height adjustment.
@@sebastianstoica578 Not on the journey trim in the UK, adjustable lumbar support is only on the Extreme.
the lumbar support isn't great though, I tried it and I had a kia with the lumbar before that was comfortable, the dacia lumbar is meh
love your video
Thanks 🙏
Cats have 9 lives. Or so they claim...
“So they claim” first thing that came to my head was a cat saying I claim that I have 9 lives. Don’t know why I found that so funny 😂
@NonstopDrivingReviews my intention was to cause laugh.
In Holland the Journey is 35k :(
Are cars in Holland generally more expensive compared to Germany?
@@NonstopDrivingReviews yes, due to taxes
wow, thought Germany was already expensive but that is even worse :)
25 k in romania. You could buy it from a Romanian dealer in transfer it to holland
21.5k the lpg journey version in romania. Your government is robbing you. And i thought we had bad gov. In RO.
Cats have 9 lives
Two people in the car but still both not smart enough to know that 😅 thanks for the reminder
Never seen one come back from the dead. So only 1.
That’s probably the most logical answer 😅

I love hard plastic. Very durable and it dont have any drawbacks.
