Dacia Bigster Claims ‘Best Affordable Hybrid SUV’ at EcoCar Awards
Dacia is officially bringing its famous, no-nonsense value to the large family car market, and the industry is already taking notice. The Dacia Bigster has taken home the coveted title of ‘Best Affordable Hybrid SUV’ in the prestigious EcoCar Electrified Top 50 Awards.
The annual awards celebrate the absolute best electrified vehicles in the UK, from mild hybrids to fully electric models. For the Bigster, this win highlights a refreshingly simple concept: efficient hybrid technology and generous family space should actually be accessible to everyone.
Redefining Value for the Modern Family
Built for drivers who want their SUV big on space and common sense, but not on price, the Bigster perfectly embodies Dacia’s rugged DNA. As EcoCar Magazine Editor Ian Robertson noted, Dacia continues to redefine value motoring by offering a full hybrid powertrain that delivers genuine efficiency at a fraction of the cost of its rivals. It’s spacious, well-made, and refreshingly honest about what it is, effectively scaling up Dacia's winning formula for larger families.
The award lands right on the heels of Dacia’s new FutuREady roadmap. This strategic plan focuses on launching eco-friendly, electrified C-segment vehicles without ever drifting into unnecessary complexity or inflated price tags.
Built for Real Budgets and Real Roads
Starting from just £25,215 on-the-road, the Bigster broadens what drivers can expect from an affordable SUV, keeping choices beautifully simple across three distinct trims:
Expression: Packed with practical everyday tech, featuring a 10.1-inch central touchscreen, dual-zone climate control, a multiview camera, and highly versatile fold-flat rear seats.
Journey: Adds premium comfort and convenience to your drive with 19-inch alloys, a hands-free keycard, a wireless phone charger, and a powered tailgate.
Extreme: Built for outdoor enthusiasts, adding modular roof bars, washable MicroCloud upholstery, sturdy rubber mats, and hill descent control.
As Lina Ribeiro, Dacia UK Brand Director, put it, this isn't technology for show, but technology that earns its place. The Bigster proves that you can drive a capable, modern hybrid SUV that fits real family budgets perfectly.
