There are 2 shifts on the gear box for the electric engine. First shift is from 0 to 70 km/h and above the Jogger shift to the second gear. The first gear is also used when the car is reversing as an electric engine works in both directions. There are 4 gears for the 4 piston engine. The 1rt gear kicks in at 30km/h. Below 30km/h the car is only motored by the electric engine.
I want this car because I have a dog and want to take the rear seats out and put the cage in the back, because the back door is almost a vertical right angle to the body it makes most of the space. I tried the cage in a new Duster but because of the sloping back it would not fit. This seems an excellent car for the money and the hybrid would just make it smoother to drive and cruise around in. Great review I want one!
The gearbox isn't "like a CVT gearbox" It's a clutchless dogbox that works like a dual clutch gearbox, the next gear is always prepared for shifting into.
You are right ! Not like this guy who thinks this is like CVT 😂😂😂 It's more like multitronic with 2 clutches in Audi then CVT. Now I see why this guy don't have many subscribers...
@@Jus7te0 but I'm very happy that you watched and hope you find a lot of other great inputs I have in all the reviews. Thanks for the feedback but I still stand for that the gearbox being good but with a somewhat uncharming CVT tendency at times when flooring it. All the best and thanks again ❤️🙏

It will have the Renault Austral hybrid system in it which is well made. The computer chooses which way to drive the wheels either the ICE or Electric motor. There is a complex meshing gubbins that makes it happen. Don't know about clutches in it, I haven't heard it mentioned.
Very nice review, I liked it! Very convincing and to the point. I'm also tired of all those bells and whistles of fancy dashboards. The truth is, this car can save you BnB costs!!!

@@whatcarwhattime pity the automatic isn't available in the standard petrol. Automatic is great for driving around town. Once I switched to auto I can't imagine going back (I just drove a rental in Portugal with gears and it reminded me how annoying they are)

I think it's a great alternative to other vehicles on the market. The build quality isn't the best but not far off and hopefully with you less electronics on board then Renault it'll proof to be more reliable too. The size and the price speak for itself. I'm rooting for Dacia here!
You're perfectly right. Its a good car and for the money an even better. And that Dacias budget aura becomes a bit cool nowadays makes it an even more interesting car. Thanks for watching 🙏
Dacia actually have a very very strong reliability record. They are built for Romania, where things are not as refined as... let's say Sweden... Renault itself embarked on a reliability spree back in 2015 and have put German cars to shame since then. I am no fan of Renault but I am slowly becoming one, with each crazy repair my VW needs!
@@todorkolev7565 Thanks for good input and info. Yes, I also think they feel good and reliability should also be up to part. Lets follow and see what cars and brands that will hold up the best for the coming years. Thanks for watching 🙏
I find it very endearing that this car is so no-nonsense. It’s hardcore practicality. If they made the front pillar look more like an SUV and perhaps used the electric system to give it AWD, I think it would be able to compete for an even larger market share. It’s a supremely impressive car. Probably the best offer on the market today for family cars. Virtually any estate, family hatchback or MPV is outmatched by this for the money. If it had more SUV looks (and maybe AWD) it could potentially also take on the family SUV market.
You're right in your evaluation! I liked it a lot and Im looking a little at this or the Duster for the next car to buy. We'll see! Thanks for your input and for watching 🙏
@@whatcarwhattime My pleasure. Thank you for making the content. Personally, I am weighing the Jogger against an EQB. Not sure how many people saw that match-up coming. I certainly didn't, but here I am. The way luxury SUVs and EVs drop in price and the way that car taxation works in my country (Denmark), a lightly used EQB pretty much edges out all the non-EV 7-seaters, except for the Jogger.
I rather the money was spent in the back as there are no rear curtain airbags, imagine having 5 kids wiped out when that could save them & mum & dad are saved by their airbags in the front. Surprised no one mentioned this, so if you've got a family then don't buy this car sadly.
I've gone for the xpression on mobility , to be able to fit my daughters wheelchair in and room for the family. I wont get until august but im looking forward to it, its my first car so i didn't really want loads in it.
Assuming you've received it how is it? We ordered ours and told will be arriving next month. Have had an s max twice , touran and grand c max on motability
@smokinjoe8027 it's been good , my daughters chair needed to be folded to fit . As our first car though it's hard to compare with others. Sadly it'll be going back in 2 weeks as My daughters passed away last Monda😢
Can you revisit the Dacia Jogger Hybrid as I feel you did it dirty. For a Family MPV which is Hybrid it’s a fantastic car. You have many things wrong in this review such as you say needs more room for rear seats? Try putting headrests down and seats very easily roll fully forward. I own one and it’s a breath of fresh air without all the extra complications of computers everywhere. What Dacia did with the Jogger is fantastic and I urge people to go take a look in person.
I like the Dacia Jogger and I praised it for a lot. Personally I dont think I did it "dirty" and "many things wrong", ?? Come on😊. Very happy that you got one and I was very close to getting one myself because I like it, its uncomplicated and has good space. But I wont revisit it, its not a mindblowing car, just a good car and value for money. Enjoy yours and thanks for watching 🙏
@@whatcarwhattimeit’s true that it’s no Porsche, Mercedes, BMW but wow what a car. The new 2024 model has some of the features polished such as the crash detection is not a big ugly square in the front grill anymore, interior Media Nav has been upgraded on the Extreme edition, the drivers display has totally changed from the Renault one, plus more. Great channel keep up the fantastic reviews and keep on motoring 👍🏾
The big letdown is the 4 speed transmission. I tried it and I really don't like it. They should put in the 6 speed like in the newer Renaults, makes it much better
I liked your review, a lot. I missed to hear about the safety features such as number of airbags, blind spot radar, windshield defrost etc. Don't think they are premium specific. will be good to know. Cheers.
Thank you. Yeah, I sometimes bring these about specifics up but Im more for what the car is about and the feeling and foundation of it. But i absorb you feedback and will bring things like this up at some point later on in some reviews. Its safety a star down due to that it hasnt got pedestrian radar I think, otherwise its a safe car. Thanks for watching 🙏🙏❤️
Something very important not said, is the lack of rear airbags. Considering you may have 5 children in the rear & you might have a 40mph side impact & airbags might save their lives or serious injuries. This is a very big mistake.
The starting price for the cheapest Jogger in Romania is almost 17000 euros not 13000. The government runs ' The Junk' programme to get people to buy new cars and then maybe you will get it with 13000 for trading an old car but not so sure your cost will not exceed 13000. Anyway the hybrid presented here is 23-25000 euros minus a junk evaluation if you have one to trade.
@@TH-camnonesense Yes , you are right 100% ! Prices now are 17.000 euro , but Jogger use to be much cheaper 2-3 years ago ! Maybe the conflict in Ukraine is affects the production in Romania, and the prices, I know that the sheet metal that is used for the Dacia car body was brought from there !
I think it got such low rating mostly due to that it lacks some technical safety features, pedestrian warning and such. Not directly for structural weakness. But need to check this more in detail. Thanks for the input and for watching 🙏
When I put my two beautiful kids, and that happy 40kg dog, no car is luxury any more. I need car that have metal interior, military grade, that can be washed with high pressure hose.
Easy now. I've done plenty of homework and if a little detail is missed out or wrong you should not be that irritated. The review as a whole is great. So come on now, I guess you dont know how much effort it takes to do a production like this. Be kind. You will be happier in the long run. Thanks for watching ❤️🙏
Issue with car, though, it's a brand new Renault engine and transnission. And anyone who is acquainted with new Renaults know that their first generations are terrible in terms of reliability. They use the public as their beta testers. Dacia used to be smart, used old, proven Renault platforms, and got reliability and low production cost at the same time. These days...
Not really 'brand new' as the platform already exist on the Clio e-tech since 3 or 4 year's. They are already on the second generation with a 1.2 tce but this one is not yet as good as this old 1.6 atmo
Interesting. Will stay updated on this. Hopefully its good, because it feels good in its mechanical way and also its material even though a bit simple. But I enjoy the funktionality of it. Thanks for watching 🙏
@@hman72yTo be honest, I much prefer they went with the larger atmo engine (guessing, older?), than a small 1.2L engine with a turbo on a big car like that, that's suppose to lug around some cargo. Toyota does the same, and I'm giessing it's to improve reliability (A known VVTI platform) and reduce complexity, of an already complex hybrid engine (dual injection, VVTI, plus the hybrid management system, although their SynergyDrive transmission is mechanically super simple and reliable). Yeah, Renault's hybrid isn't totally new, but they did suffer from reliability, although I haven't really research as to why (gearbox or engine issues). I hesitated between the Dacia hybrid, and a Toyota Touring Sport for a while, and went with Toyota, as it's a well known quantity and ultra reliable, though 'expensive'. I did go with the 2.0L like an idiot though, not the most sensible option. 140BHP is plenty sufficient and much cheaper. Maybe worth a review. The other Boring Sensible Man's hybrid. Or a Swace, which is an entry-level Corolla Touring Sport.
