Detailed analysis of the Dacia Lodgy Stepway Blue dCi 85 kW (115 CV) 7 plazas · 116 CV (2018-2019)
General description
The Dacia Lodgy Stepway is the honest and direct answer to the space needs of a modern family. It doesn't seek to dazzle with luxuries, but to conquer with overwhelming practical intelligence: seven real seats and an adventurous spirit at a price that redefines the concept of a smart purchase. It's a vehicle that invites you to live experiences without worrying about the car.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the Lodgy Stepway feels like a loyal and hardworking companion. Its 116 hp diesel engine with 260 Nm of torque moves the vehicle with surprising ease, even when fully loaded, conveying a sense of robustness and confidence. It's not a sprinter, but its thrust is constant and its fuel consumption is ridiculously low. The suspension prioritizes passenger comfort above all else, effectively filtering out road irregularities, while its 6-speed manual transmission does its job without complications. It's a car that relaxes you, making you feel you can get anywhere without rush or stress.
Design and aesthetics
The Stepway trim dresses the Lodgy in an explorer's outfit. Its plastic protections, roof bars, and robust aesthetics give it a personality that inspires weekend getaways. Inside, space is the true protagonist. The modularity of its seven seats and a gigantic 634-liter trunk (with 5 seats) make it an unbeatable family tool. The materials are simple and durable, designed to withstand daily life without complaints. It's a design that doesn't charm at first sight, but whose functionality and spaciousness win your heart with use.
Technology and features
The technology in the Lodgy Stepway is pragmatic and functional, without unnecessary frills. It offers the essentials for daily life: a simple but effective multimedia system with navigation and Bluetooth connectivity, air conditioning, and basic safety features. The inclusion of the Start/Stop system is a nod to efficiency. Dacia understands that the best technology is that which is useful, reliable, and doesn't drive up the final price, and this car is the perfect example of that philosophy.
Competition
In the field of affordable 7-seaters, the Lodgy Stepway is almost in a league of its own. Rivals like the Citroën Grand C4 SpaceTourer, Renault Grand Scénic, or Ford Grand C-MAX offered more technology and refinement, but at a significantly higher cost. Its most direct competitors in terms of price might be commercial-derived vehicles like the Citroën Berlingo or Peugeot Rifter, but the Lodgy maintains a pure MPV aesthetic with a space/price ratio that was, and still is, practically unbeatable.
Conclusion
The Dacia Lodgy Stepway Blue dCi 115 hp is much more than a cheap car; it is the embodiment of freedom for families on a tight budget. It is an honest, incredibly spacious, and reliable vehicle that allows you to focus on what truly matters: the journey and the company. It forgoes the superfluous to deliver maximum functionality and minimal running costs. It's a rational purchase that generates immense emotional satisfaction every time you load it to the brim for a new adventure.
