For the first time in the history of Automobile Dacia, the modelwith the highest production is also the most expensive one in theoffer of the Romanian brand. Production of the Duster SUV, whichcosts between 10,950 and over 18,000 euros, VAT included, exceededSandero production in September. This is the first time that theB-segment model loses the leading position both in terms of thenumber of cars assembled, and in terms of price. With the averageprice of a Duster being above 15,000 euros, double as much as thatof a Logan or a Sandero, Automobile Dacia's turnover will see anaccelerated turnover growth, and will most likely reach around 2.5billion euros this year, according to ZF calculations, comparedwith a little over 2 billion euros last year.
