FactRenault's CEO watched cheap Ladas outsell pricier Renaults on a trip to Russia and called it unacceptable — that reaction became the brief for the sub-€6,000 Logan.
The low-cost B-segment sedan that launched Dacia's Renault-era growth in mid-2004 as successor to the Dacia 1310 and Solenza, built on the B0 platform at Mioveni in Romania and, from 2005, in Colombia, Russia, Morocco, Brazil, India, Iran and South Africa. Wagon, panel-van and coupé-utility (pick-up) bodies followed, and it was sold as the Renault Logan in most markets outside Europe, the Nissan Aprio in Mexico, the Mahindra-Renault Logan and Verito in India (launched April 2007, the first right-hand-drive Logan), the Lada Largus wagon in Russia (Largus production from 2011) and the Nissan NP200 pick-up in South Africa. All engines met Euro 3 at launch and Euro 4 from January 2007, when the diesel gained power to 70 hp; Hi-Flex ethanol variants were sold in Brazil. Dacia had built over 4 million Logans worldwide by 2018.

We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

Sanctions cancelled its 2022 Russian launch; in 2024 AvtoVAZ showed its own sedan on the same platform and called it the Lada Iskra.
Dacia's budget Logan is more Romanian than French on paper: Renault says 60% of this generation's design work happened at its Romanian engineering centre.

Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
