Good price, Easy to drive, comfortable. Had 2 Stepways both have had problems. One 3 years old needed new clutch and flywheel. Second one had to be returned because it would not go into reverse if parked on a slope…. Despite other reports of this on Dacia forum neither garage or Dacia would acknowledge this was a problem. Even the mechanic at the garage could not get it to engage!

Would never buy another.

This is the second Stepway we have owned (the first one had untold electrical issues) and this one suffers problems with the throttle system leading to intermittent coughing and jerky response. The media system suffers interesting crashes if carplay devices are connected at the wrong moment. The overall build is fair, the price point was okay but it's definitely not a vehicle we'd rush to purchase again.

Radio stations can't tune them in even update. NO GLOVE BOX LIGHT!! No illumination to highlight automatic gearbox (drive, park, neutral, ) hard to get used to in darkness, aftercare service all DEPENDS ON IF THERE IS A COURTESY CAR, which doesn't suit my work pattern.

Funniest and cheapest complementary gift was of a hotel condiments, seriously ha ha ha ha

The car is good.

The worst thing is the Stoneacre dealership, Doncaster. I purchased the vehicle, brand new, on the 13th March 2025. It came with 1 key and the salesman told me the 2nd would be along in "a couple of weeks". Despite chasing and raising a formal complaint, still no key and no contact. Very poor experience after purchasing a new vehicle.

I chose the car on price and style. I have enjoyed my first year of motoring in my Sandero as the car drives well and is very comfortable. I bought the base model as I am not a fan of all the latest gadgets. What can Dacia do better? As a first time customer of the brand, just keep on producing the quality at affordable prices.

Dropped a star as it doesn’t come with a satnav and the wing mirrors are not electric. Having to open and close them manually l have forgotten once and clipped them on the side of the garage door, taking paint off the car.

Sandero is a good size for my needs. Fuel consumption is good. It is easy to drive.

I like the new design of the Dacia logo on the back and the less obvious model internet the registration plate.

There could be a bit more leg room in the back.

Rubber mats could be added as a permanent fixture.

I would like to have the front

Drivers side seat adjustable and the steering wheel

The sandero expression is not as good as the sandero comfort that it has replaced and was supposed to be the same. It only has 5 gears. There's no Sat Nav included. The doors need firmer closing rather than clicking back into place when pushed. Overall Im quite disappointed with it

Really like the parking sensors which last Sandero didn’t have, also like the speed limit reminder. Not keen on the lane control thought. The choice of colours was limited, and I miss the armrest that my 2021 model had. Overall nice car at a great price with plenty of room.

I love my little Dacia Sandero Stepway, it has sporty looks and drives great for a small engine car. You can't get better for the price. It's the second one I have owned. Thinking about upgrading to a Duster next time but it depends on the price and cost of living balance.
