Hi, friends!
Dacia is in ownership of Renault for probably last twenty years and after some shy starts, they became very well known manufacturer in Europe.
They already tried to produced their first rally vehicle in Logan Super 2000 some 15 years ago but after some tests with French driver Simon-Jean Joseph (he was Renault's works driver at that time) , they stopped with the development. It would be very interesting to find that chassis and see how good was it in comparison with other manufacturers of that time.
It seems that every manufacturer see Dakar Rally and Dakar series as a good promotion, but also as a good test in development of their machinery, so many of them decided to enter the Dakar program.
Last of them is Dacia and while they work on the car development via Prodrive company from England, they already signed up two of their drivers for the program from 2025 - nine time WRC champion Seb Loeb and Cristina Gutierrez.
Let the best win - as always...
