Product Code Database
The Dacia Lodgy is a compact MPV produced by the France manufacturer Renault and its subsidiary Automobile Dacia since 2012. It was officially unveiled jointly by both brands at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. The car was available only in LHD from launch, with front-wheel drive and a choice of five and seven seater models. The Lodgy was manufactured at a Renault factory in Tangier, Morocco.
Lodgy is the first Dacia model to offer a speed limiter, on the Laureate level, and a navigation system with a seven-inch touchscreen display, as an option. Bluetooth and USB connectivity, previously introduced on the Dacia Duster, are also available.
The Lodgy received three stars in Euro NCAP's crash test rating, considered to be the lowest result for a car in 2012. In the test, the rear passenger floor panel and tunnel were completely separated, and the transmission tunnel was deformed between the front seats.
The Lodgy was facelifted in 2017, which included subtle updates.
Its major exterior features includes twin slated grill, swept back headlamps, fog lamps, chrome highlights, contemporary taillight cluster, while major interior highlights are spacious cabin, large windows, seven and eight seater option, newly designed dashboard, touch screen infotainment system, comfortable seats and multi function steering wheel with cruise control toggles. It was discontinued in India in 2020.

Two models were raced by father and son Alain Prost and Nicolas Prost, and the third by Evens Stievenart. The team eventually won the competition, with Alain Prost as the first placed driver, gaining four victories and six other podium finishes.
The seven rounds took place in Val Thorens, Andorra, Alpe d'Huez, Isola 2000, Lans-en-Vercors, Saint-Dié-des-Vosges and Super Besse. It was the first MPV model to win the competition, and the second model from Dacia to compete in the Andros Trophy, after the Dacia Duster took part in the seasons of 2010 and 2011.
