Used Dacia Jogger for sale: everything you need to know
The Dacia Jogger is an affordable seven-seater estate that comes with a fresh look, oodles of space and a used price tag that makes it hugely appealing to anyone on a budget.
What you get from the Dacia Jogger is a no-nonsense larger edition of the popular Dacia Sandero, with more space and seven seats plus a raised ride height and cool roofline topped with rails.
While it’s quite a unique proposition and cheap too, the Dacia Jogger has some close rivals, like the Skoda Octavia Estate or MG5 if an estate-style car is on your shopping list.
The good thing with it’s affordable status is that you don’t need to break the bank to go up the trim levels, with the middle Comfort option being a good bet. All cars come with a simple-but-effective 1-litre engine and manual gearbox.
Considering that, the Dacia Jogger feels like a very capable proposition on the road and drives and handles well enough. It’s reasonably economical too, meaning that buying one and running it is an appealing option if funds are tight.
If you’re looking for an affordable used buy, there’s a huge amount of choice.
Should you buy a Dacia Jogger?
The Dacia Jogger is a great idea if you’re looking for a high-riding, spacious and affordable large estate. It might not come big on frills, but it gets the job done without breaking the bank, which is a real positive.
While this isn’t the most refined car in the world, it does what it does brilliantly. Performance is fine, space levels are excellent and if you head for the mid-range trim level you’ll get a reasonable level of features and functionality.
All that comes with a relatively bargain price tag too, with used examples of the Dacia Jogger stacking up well against the likes of rival options such as the Skoda Octavia Estate or MG5.
If you’ve got more budget then the Volkswagen Golf Estate or the Skoda Karoq, which strays into SUV territory, are good but in terms of value for money, the Dacia Jogger is hard to beat.

What’s the best used Dacia Jogger model to buy?
This is pretty easy. There's only one engine for now – a 1.0-litre petrol paired with a six-speed manual gearbox. There's probably not much reason to wait for the hybrid engine (unless, perhaps, you want an automatic gearbox) – its higher list price will wipe out any potential fuel cost savings.
In terms of trim level, the majority of buyers are expected to go for the Dacia Jogger Comfort or Extreme SE. We wouldn't bother with the entry-level Duster Essential unless you're really counting the pennies - the difference in monthly payments between this and the higher-spec models is minimal and brings nice-to-have features like a reversing camera and an in-built infotainment system.
Used Dacia Jogger fuel economy and performance
Dacia Jogger 1.0L TCe 110 petrol: The Dacia Jogger sports a straightforward 1.0-litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine, which features 110PS and 200Nm. Considering the size of the car it’s surprisingly good, even if the six-speed gearbox feels a little bit industrial. You should get up to 49.6pmg too, even though acceleration and the top speed aren’t anything to write home about at.
What used Dacia Jogger trim levels are available?
Like everything else associated with the Dacia brand, things are kept pretty simple with the trim options for the Jogger. That makes homing in on the right used example for your needs very easy indeed.
The Dacia Jogger Essential is the entry-level option and it’s fairly basic it has to be said. Nevertheless, lookout for manual air conditioning, rear parking sensors, cruise control and automatic headlights. On a practical level there’s a steering wheel that adjusts for height and reach, electric front windows, an automatic emergency braking system and Dacia’s Media Control system.
The Dacia Jogger Comfort is a better bet with modular roof rails, body-coloured door handles, front and rear parking sensors with a reversing camera plus 16-inch steel wheels along with electrically adjustable and heated door mirrors. Inside, there’s a soft-feel steering wheel, a central armrest, electric rear windows, electronic parking brake, keyless entry, automatic air conditioning, line spot warning as well as Dacia’s eight-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.
The Dacia Jogger Extreme is the best of the bunch in terms of looks and goodies. There’s 16-inch black alloy wheels, MicroCloud upholstery and dashboard trim with contrast stitching, rubber floor mats, heated front seats, fold-down seat-mounted trays for second-row passengers, 8-inch Media Nav with DAB Radio, Bluetooth and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.
