00:00Welcome to the video from the Auto Magazine Tuning Blog, where today's video is all about the comparison between the Fiat Grande Panda and the Dacia Sandero.
00:11Please note that our comparison is not a real direct comparison, but only a virtual comparison.
00:19The vehicles in the video are sample vehicles for visual representation and are only used to illustrate the respective characteristics and differences.
00:26The Fiat Grande Panda presents itself with clear, angular lines that are strongly reminiscent of the legendary original Panda.
00:37It is exactly 4 meters long and both the front and rear are designed vertically, which should make parking and assessing the vehicle's dimensions easier.
00:48The front section is particularly eye-catching with angular headlights in the higher-end versions with a striking pixel design and LED projectors.
00:56In the electric version, the charging cable for alternating current is practically and inconspicuously integrated into the radiator grille.
01:05In contrast, the Dacia Sandero has a rounder silhouette.
01:09Depending on the version, whether it is the normal Sandero or the Stepway interpreted as a crossover, the car has a slightly different look.
01:16The length is just over 4 meters, just slightly longer than that of the Fiat.
01:22However, the design appears significantly softer and less angular.
01:26When it comes to the engine, the Fiat Grande Panda offers a wider range.
01:30The current choice is a 1.2-mild hybrid with 110 horsepower and a purely electric version with 113 horsepower and a range of around 320 kilometers.
01:43A classic 1.2L petrol engine with 100 horsepower and manual transmission is set to be added this year.
01:49The Dacia Sandero, on the other hand, continues to be powered purely by internal combustion engines.
01:55The well-known 1.03 is available as a naturally aspirated engine with 67 horsepower and as a turbocharged engine with 91 horsepower.
02:04There is also a version that can be operated with both LPG and petrol.
02:08This produces 101 horsepower.
02:11The Stepway is not available in the basic engine version with 67 horsepower, but can be optionally equipped with a turbocharged engine with 110 horsepower.
02:22According to users online, the lack of any electrification is being criticized as increasingly outdated in the Dacia, even though a hybrid model is announced for the near future.
02:33There is a clear difference in prices.
02:35The mild hybrid version of the Fiat Grande Panda starts at around €19,000.
02:41The electric version costs around €25,000.
02:45The manual petrol version, which is yet to be released, is expected to start at around €15,000.
02:5316-inch steel rims, digital instruments with a 10-inch display, rear parking sensors, fabric upholstery and manual air conditioning are already included as standard.
03:02The Dacia Sandero, on the other hand, starts at over €12,000 in the most basic version with 67 horsepower, but without air conditioning.
03:14The Stepway is priced at around €15,000, but comes with air conditioning as standard.
03:20The price applies to both the 91-horsepower petrol engine and the LPG version.
03:25In the interior of both vehicles, you can't expect any luxury in the basic version.
03:31The Fiat Grande Panda Pop, for example, does not come with a central infotainment system.
03:37Instead, a smartphone holder has to suffice.
03:41Better-equipped models have a 10.25-inch screen with extensive functions including Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
03:47The interior relies on hard plastics, but with solid workmanship.
03:54The bamboo-like trim strip along the glove compartment is striking, lending the interior an individual touch.
04:01Users report online that the interior is generously spacious for this vehicle class, both in the front and in the back.
04:09Depending on the model, the trunk offers between just over 400 and almost 1,400 L of volume.
04:15The electric version is slightly smaller, with values between 360 and around 1,300 L.
04:24The Dacia Sandero is also kept simple inside.
04:29The basic version has an integrated smartphone holder, while the better-equipped models have a central 8-inch touchscreen.
04:37The instruments always remain analog.
04:40Here too, the interior design is dominated by hard plastics, although fabric elements provide a certain upgrade depending on the equipment.
04:48The seating position is described by users as comfortable and the boot offers sufficient space for everyday use with around 330 to over 1,100 L.
05:02In conclusion, it can be said that both the Fiat Grande Panda and the Dacia Sandero are solid representatives of the category of affordable small cars.
05:10The Fiat focuses on modern technology, offers an electric version and a more eye-catching design with retro charm.
05:18The Dacia scores with an unbeatably low entry price and proven technology, but without electrified drives.
05:28Which model is the better choice ultimately depends largely on individual requirements and the available budget.
