Dacia plans to launch four electric vehicles by 2030 to diversify its offering.
Dacia has long adopted a long-distance strategy for electric cars. But the Romanian brand is now seeking to expand its catalog: it plans to launch four battery-powered vehicles by 2030. Among them, there could be a small urban SUV that looks like a 4x4: this would be the Renault Bridger, a model designed in India which would therefore be available in Europe with the Dacia logo. It is at least a project under study, as Autocar revealed on November 6, citing the general director of the Renault group. The Bridger “was created for India but it could one day arrive on our markets as well,” declared François Provost.
What will this Bridger look like? Renault gave a good overview in March 2026 with a “show car” which foreshadows the production vehicle. The manufacturer describes an urban SUV capable of “better meeting the needs of families, more and more of whom live in the city”. “Its proportions are surprising with a length of less than 4 meters without compromising on interior habitability,” adds the company. In Europe, the car could chase the lands of the Citroën ë-C3 and the Fiat Grande Panda Electric.
Bridger: launch planned for 2027
Contacted by Le Figaro, Dacia does not comment on this information. In any case, we will certainly have to wait a little before seeing the Bridger arrive in Europe. Its launch is planned for 2027 in India and the vehicle will certainly require adaptations for the Old Continent. It will also be necessary to find a factory for it: its production could take place at the historic Dacia site in Mioveni in Romania, according to Le Journal de l'Automobile, so that the manufacturer can benefit from regulatory advantages offered to small vehicles manufactured in Europe.
