Customer reviews for Dacia BigsterDacia Bigster seen by those who use it on a daily basis

Do I love the bigster? Yes but…

The Bigster fit the bill for a good size, affordable family car with enough gadgets to feel good with practicality of life with horses and dogs. The car is like a big comfy armchair drive but it has a bit of oomph when required. The MPG is good and while I think it sounds a little chunky swapping between petrol and electric sometimes, it swaps efficiently and gives a massive range of miles.

I love the colour I chose and I purchased some extras which made practical sense for a family doing lots of outdoor activities… this is where they let themselves down!

After weeks of chasing it was booked in, struggled to get the promised courtesy car or find the booking and then still had a part outstanding which I’m STILL waiting for.

I guess my advice is make sure they can actually get the accessories before ordering or make sure you pick a model/ trim with them included!

The Bigster is excellent value for money. It has all the bells and whistles but yes the materials used are more basic but they provide for a very cost effective package. The hybrid system worked well in my wife's previous Jogger and this is just as good, averaging mid 50's to the gallon.

Two complaints though. 1. Dacia don't provide handbooks with the vehicle. You have to order them from the dealer. That's just taking penny pinching to a new extreme. 2. The handbrake is in totally the wrong place, low down to the right on the dash out of reach for a tall person, like me. Should be in the logical place on the central console. I will be seeing about getting a modification done to this.

Overall very pleased and have no regrets with my purchase.

I like the technology and safety. Petrol economy is miraculous - 51mpg over 2400 miles and based on actual fuel fill-ups - not onboard computer which in common with other cars over-estimates the level of economy.

I don't like the restriction regarding not "loading" the spare wheel compartment - even when no spare wheel is carried. This would be the only useable space for the essential "stuff" that every motorist needs to carry around. My "stuff" is now in the main luggage compartment which is untidy and restricts the space for actual luggage.

I have had my bigster now for 3 months and love it,I bought it because I have 2 large dogs and it swallows them with no problems,I like the regenerative braking feature and as it is a hybrid the range that it gives me if driven sensibly.a couple of niggles though the front seat belts are a bit fiddly as the centre console gets in the way could do with being longer,and there are no rear grab handles which is awkward for me as I have nowhere to attach the rear seat dog cover.

The Dacia Bigster 2025 model is a great car, very smoothe drive and really good acceleration. Good for driving in busy cities and the motorway. Only some minor improvements could be made - the sound when the boot opens and closes is very loud, and when the car locks/unlocks. Glove compartment very small and awkward.

Fuel economy. Comfort, driving position, luggage space. It does everything I want from a car. This is the first car I have had with adaptive cruise control. When driving in town it reacts to parked cars causing it to brake when there is no need. It would be nice to have both types, to avoid this.

Overall, the car is great. Very comfortable and a very nice drive.

Few things could be improved. Firstly, the infotainment system is a bit sluggish and drops the connection to my phone regularly. Secondly, there could be a bit more usable storage in the centre console.

It's early days but for the money this is a very nice car and streets ahead of your older models. In terms of size married with 4 x4 capability I would have had to spend a lot more to have bought anything comparable from another manufacturer, so well done Dacia (so far).

Great package!

Could easily handle more power, but might lose some of its charm?

Loved my Duster, but love my Bigster more!

The only time in 40 years when I have purchased vehicles from the same manufacturer back to back!

Slightly larger than our Duster which was great but need more boot space. Well fitted out with what we need but no extraneous toys or related expense. 55 mpg very economical for a big car. Very pleased.
