The first-generation Dacia Bigster offers several approaches to everyday SUV driving. Petrol, LPG and hybrid examples give you useful starting points when weighing fuel choice, transmission preference and traction needs.
Among the Dacia Bigster engine choices, the petrol and LPG versions of the 1.2 MT pair a manual gearbox with front-wheel drive. The hybrid 1.2 DCT 4WD combines an automated dual-clutch transmission with all-wheel drive, offering automatic shifting and extra traction on slippery surfaces. For LPG, consider the availability of local filling stations.

For the 1.8 AT Hybrid, Expression and Expression Plus are equipment configurations of the same front-wheel-drive automatic hybrid version. When comparing these Dacia Bigster trim levels, check which comfort, parking and connectivity features each includes. Focus on equipment you will use regularly to judge whether an upgrade suits your needs.
The 1.2 DCT 4WD uses a lithium-ion battery to support its hybrid powertrain. In everyday use, stored energy can help the petrol engine during acceleration. Battery capacity is only one factor in that assistance; driving conditions and the system’s controls also affect how much electric power is available.
