Dacia Unveils Striker, an Electrified C‑Segment ‘Lifestyle Kombi’

Planned October orders with December deliveries will let Dacia test whether a sub‑€25,000 electrified Kombi can broaden its C‑segment appeal.

Overview

  • The Striker, unveiled this week, is a 4.62‑metre ‘lifestyle Kombi’ that mixes Kombi cargo space, SUV ground clearance cues and limousine efficiency in a low‑height package.
  • Dacia has announced a target base price below €25,000 and says orders will open around the Paris Autosalon in October with first customer deliveries slated for December.
  • The lineup includes four electrified drivetrains: a 1.2‑litre 48‑V mild hybrid with a bivalent LPG option, a 1.8‑litre full hybrid, and a hybrid 4x4 that uses a decouplable electric rear motor for on‑demand all‑wheel traction.
  • Practical features include about 600 litres of trunk space, a three‑part reversible modular load floor, 60:40 folding rear seats, a standard 10.1‑inch touchscreen and the LightVisio floating 3D instrument while key controls remain physical.
  • Final WLTP consumption figures, certified weights and confirmed market prices remain subject to homologation, production will take place in Bursa, Turkey, and Dacia intends the Striker to help raise its C‑segment share toward a long‑term target of roughly one‑third of sales.
