Dacia has once again proved that its reputation for outstanding value doesn’t stop at the showroom door, after the Dacia Jogger was named ‘Best Value Used Estate Car 2026’ in Diesel&EcoCar Magazine’s Used Car Top 50 awards.
Ranked an impressive 21st overall, Jogger’s latest accolade reinforces Dacia’s position as the smart choice for drivers looking for rugged practicality and shows that the brand’s famously no-nonsense approach to value translates just as strongly for used car buyers as it does for new.
The Diesel & Eco Car Magazine Used Car Top 50 is compiled by the publication’s expert judging panel, which assessed more than 1,000 used cars before narrowing the field to a definitive list of 50 standout models.
Commenting on why the Jogger stood out, Diesel&EcoCar Magazine’s Editor, Ian Robertson, said: “The Jogger Hybrid is the most affordable seven-seat electrified model you can buy, combining hybrid running costs with family car practicality. [The hybrid system] excels in town, often running on electric power alone for a decent proportion of the time. The interior is durable and hard-wearing, and the flexible seating makes it ideal for active households. An honest, good-value hybrid that serves families well without unnecessary frills.”
Lina Ribeiro, Dacia Brand Director for the UK, said: “Jogger is made for real life, whether that’s the school run, the weekly shop, or heading off for an everyday adventure with the family. This award from Diesel&EcoCar Magazine is fantastic recognition, because it highlights exactly what Jogger delivers as a used car. It offers robust practicality, flexible seven-seat versatility and great value you can rely on.”
With its tough, honest character and clever interior flexibility, Jogger continues to stand out as one of the most versatile cars in its class. In hybrid form, it also brings the added benefit of electrified running around town, helping to keep day-to-day costs low while staying ready for whatever the week, or weekend, has in store.
