“Derived from the universal expression “to make a strike, to hit the mark,” it embodies challenge and reflects the brand’s ambition. Striker resonates—bold and impactful. It conveys the robustness of a versatile model, the perfect travel companion. Just like its design, which will be revealed on Tuesday, March 10, Striker radiates simple, positive, and popular energy!” the company said in its announcement.
The Striker will not be manufactured in Romania, but in Turkey, where Renault has recently become market leader.
Developed internally under the code name C-Neo, the Striker is a family crossover estate measuring around 4.60 meters in length, built on Renault Group’s CMF-B platform. The model is positioned in the C segment and is expected to compete with the Skoda Octavia Combi, Toyota Corolla Touring Sports and Volkswagen Golf Variant, but with Dacia’s signature value-for-money proposition – with entry prices expected to come in below EUR 25,000, according to French media.
