Dacia achieves class-best residuals for new Sandero and Sandero Stepway

The New Dacia Sandero and Sandero Stepway have been given best-in-class residual values by Cap.

Calculated over three years and 30,000 miles, the Sandero and Sandero Stepway ranges both offer average residual values in excess of 53% - an increase of 7.1 percentage points in retained value on average across the range, when compared to the outgoing model.

For Sandero Stepway models, residual values reach up to 57% over three years and 30,000 miles for the TCe 90 Essential specification. Similarly, the Sandero SCe 65 Essential retains 56% of its original value over the same period.

Analysed over a shorter term, the Sandero Stepway TCe 90 Essential has seen an uplift of 11.8 percentage points in value compared with the previous version over 12 months and 10,000 miles.

Dacia claims the Sandero’s residual values compare “very favourably” with all of its closest competitors, retaining a higher percentage of its original value than all rivals.

The new models have been open for orders since February 1 and feature a higher-quality interior, the latest in-car technology and more space.

Prices for the Sandero start at £7,995, while the Sandero Stepway is available from £10,995.
