Automobile Dacia S.A. is a car manufacturer based in Romania. It derived its name from the ancient region that resembles very much to the present-day Romania. More easily called as Dacia, it is now a division of the French automobile manufacturer named Renault. It was first founded in 1966.
Right now, Dacia is Romania’s biggest exporter of products, instituting 7.9% of the total exports of the country in 2011. The manufacturing plant of the company is located at Mioveni, Arges County and is at this time’s fifth largest vehicle plant facility when it comes to volume. The plant has produced a total of 412,718 cars and CKD kits in 2013.
Dacia was initially founded in 1966 with the original name, Uzina de Autoturisme Pitesti or UAP. Their first factory is located at Colibasi or currently called Mioveni built in 1968. The company acquired their basic and tooling designs from the Renault 12.
The Renault 8 was then produced under license and it was later known as the Dacia 1100. A total number of 37,546 cars were produced from 1968 to 1972. A few 1100s were also produced but with different features like a more powerful engine and twin headlamps basically used in motor racing and by the police department.
The next vehicle introduced, the Dacia 1300 was then exhibited at the Bucharest and Paris shows of 1969. It was well loved by the people of Romania with its reliability and the modernity of its design. A year after, several variants were already made including the 1300L and the 1301 Lux Super which has several novelty features including radio, a heated rear screen, windscreen mirrors and very high-class trim and upholstery inside.

The Dacia Sandero Stepway stands as a symbol of practicality and affordability in the crossover market, blending the compact efficiency of the Sandero hatchback with rugged, off-road-inspired styling.

Externally, the Sandero Stepway is characterized by its robust appearance, with a front grille that echoes the Dacia design language, flanked by sharp, expressive headlights. The added roof rails, skid plates, and larger wheels underscore its pseudo-SUV character, enabling it to handle light off-road scenarios while maintaining a city-friendly footprint.
