Exterior Design: Rugged and Modern
The All-New Dacia Bigster embraces a rugged, powerful aesthetic which sets it apart from its competitors. Its wide grille, complimented by sharp LED headlights, emphasises a modern yet practical look- while the lack of unnecessary chrome and flashy details stays true to Dacia’s minimalistic culture. It's bold stance exudes a sense of adventure and power. The All-New Bigster’s dimensions are generous, measuring around 4.6 meters in length, making it larger than the Duster but more compact than many of its competitors. This size makes it ideal for families and adventurers who desire extra space without the bulk of a full-size SUV. The automatic opening boot (as standard with the Journey edition) allows you to open and close the boot conveniently via the hands-free card in the cockpit, or directly on the boot itself. The opening height of the boot is also adjustable, which is ideal if you are in a confined space where the boot is not able to open to its maximum height. The 19” Rasan diamond cut black alloy wheel rims, Exclusive Indigo Blue paint and gloss black roof create a luxurious high end feel, and differentiate the All-New Bigster from other models. A recycled, unpainted material called Starkle is used for the wheel arches and side skirts. The Extreme edition also features a stylish, opening panoramic sunroof.

Interior Design: Practicality and comfort
The All-New Bigster has a comfortable, spacious interior- with 24cm legroom, up to 667 litres of boot capacity and over 38.8 litres of storage space. The SUV features automatic dual-zone climate control in every model, offering personalised comfort for the passengers in the front seats and creating two distinct zones with separate temperature settings. The interior has impressive modern features such as a built-in refrigerator console (available with the Journey trim level) which also acts as an armrest and a storage compartment too. The comfortable, fully-adjustable seats have lumbar control to ensure comfort for those long journeys. The passenger seats are split into a 40/20/40 ratio- including a central arm-rest with two cup holders and two smartphone holders. These seats can also be folded down to maximise space.

Youclip- The accessory system.
