The automotive landscape is shifting fast towards electrification, but the budget segment that Dacia occupies raises unique challenges. On one hand, an early move to fully electric models could position the brand as a leader in affordable EVs, potentially attracting eco‑conscious buyers who still need low‑cost transportation. On the other hand, the infrastructure and battery costs might keep the price point out of reach for the core customer base, risking a loss of market share to competitors that continue offering cheap petrol or diesel options. How do you see the balance between sustainability and affordability for a brand focused on value? What compromises would you accept, and what would be a deal‑breaker?
Is it time for Dacia to fully embrace electric powertrains, or should they stick to conventional engines?

When I tried swapping the petrol engine in my old Dacia Logan for a modest hybrid kit, the extra €1,200 for the battery and wiring made the car almost as pricey as a new compact, so I’d only accept an EV if the price stays within the traditional budget range. Anything that pushes the total cost beyond what a first‑time buyer can afford would be a deal‑breaker for Dacia’s value‑focused market.
