A comfortable and versatile SUV at the heart of the C-segment
As announced last March with the unveiling of its 2030 strategic plan, Dacia is expanding its presence in the C-segment with the introduction of Striker. This bold and unconventional proposition, positioned as an alternative to traditional SUVs, will enable the brand to attract new customers across both the private and professional markets.

The Dacia Striker brings together the best of three worlds: the elevated stance and outdoor capabilities of an SUV, the versatility and practicality of an estate car, and the energy efficiency and dynamic performance of a spacious sedan.
