David Durand, Dacia Design Director explains:
.”“With All-New Bigster, we have stayed true to the intentions expressed in Bigster Concept. Bigster is the ultimate expression of Dacia's values and is now our brand’s flagship vehicle
Dacia's values are a close fit with the requirements of the C-SUV segment. The design of All-New Bigster showcases its robust styling and ability to support car buyers in their work, leisure and family activities. Generous dimensions are accentuated by taut, geometric shapes and volumes. The large wings over the wheels, and the position of the headlights and rear lights at the far edges of the vehicle, reinforce Bigster's assertive on-road stance. The front end is also true to Dacia’s design language, with a wide, gloss black grille featuring the iconic “Dacia Link” in the centre. The sculpted, horizontal bonnet has been designed to give the driver a clear view of the road below.
Graphic design features add a touch of casual elegance on the front end and doors, as well as above the rear number plate. Rather than following a trend and adopting only gloss black, Dacia designers have opted for a mix of gloss and matt black, creating a more robust and resistant finish.
The front and rear skid plates are dyed in the mass, making them more durable and resistant. The protection running all the way around the body – on the sides, wheel arches and lower part of the bumpers – is made from Starkle®. Dacia is using this material for a more sustainable approach. Developed by the brand’s engineers and incorporating recycled materials, Starkle® is used in an untreated and unpainted form.
Dacia says the 4.57-metre-long Bigster is one of the most spacious offerings in its class, and can comfortably accommodate five passengers and all their luggage.
The Dacia Bigster will go on sale in spring 2025, and while UK pricing hasn’t been announced yet, Auto Express believe it will start somewhere in the region of £26,000 to £30,000.
