The Dacia Logan MCV (which stands for Maximum Capacity Vehicle) has established itself as one of the most affordable estate cars on the UK market. Launched in Europe in 2012 and arriving in the UK a year later, the model competes with premium estate cars like the Škoda Fabia Estate, the Ford Focus Estate, and the Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer, offering a compelling blend of value and space.

Dacia Logan updates and facelifts

Built on the same platform as the Sandero, the model replaced the earlier Dacia Logan, which was sold between 2004 and 2008. As such the current MCV iteration is often referred to as the second-generation model. Available with one diesel and two petrol engines, it came in three trim levels: Access, Ambiance and Laureate. In autumn 2015, cleaner engines were introduced, cutting CO2 emissions for a greener drive.

The Logan MCV proved the UK’s love of great value, and it won the Family Car Category in Auto Express’ 2016 Driver Power Awards. In 2017 it received the Most Highly Rated Car award at the Honest John Awards.

The Dacia Logan MCV received a notable update in 2017, which brought a series of aesthetic and functional improvements to the model. This mid-life facelift included a redesigned front bumper and a new grille, adding a touch of modernity to its appearance. LED running lights were also introduced in the top-spec models, enhancing visibility and adding a premium touch. The trims were renamed to align with those of the Sandero, becoming Access, Essential and Comfort.

Practicality and style of the car

One of the Logan’s most notable features is its generous boot space. With the rear seats in place, there’s 573 litres of cargo volume on offer – plenty for daily needs such as transporting groceries and sports equipment, as well as for occasional requirements like suitcases. With the rear seats folded down, space expands to a cavernous 1,518 litres – one of the largest volumes in the market.

The rear bench folds flat, creating a convenient area to carry anything from small items of furniture to camping gear. Moreover, this capacity surpasses mainstream competitors like the ŠKODA Fabia Estate. The Fabia has a 530-litre boot space, which expands to 1.395 litres with the seats down. The Logan’s capacity makes it an excellent choice for those who require ample cargo room without paying a premium price.

If you’re looking to tow, the Dacia Logan MCV has a maximum braked capacity of 1,150kg. However, if the car is loaded to its full Gross Vehicle Weight this towing capacity reduces to 810kg. Either way, it can accommodate a trailer tent or small caravan.

Running costs

The Dacia Logan is an economical choice for those concerned about running costs. For example, its insurance groupings are particularly low, making it an attractive option for a wide range of drivers. The entry-level Access trim falls into group 2 to 4 out of 50, and no variant surpasses group 12. Premiums for the ŠkodaFabia Estate are very similar, and those of the Ford Focus Estate are higher, ranging from groups 6 to 26.

When it comes to road tax, the Logan MCV offers further cost efficiency. Tax can range from as low as £0 to a maximum of £180 per year, depending on the model’s specifications and its emissions.

How a used Dacia Logan drives

The Dacia Logan has a range of engine options to suit various driving needs. All variants come with front-wheel drive and a five-speed manual gearbox. The 1.2-litre petrol engine, delivering 74bhp, takes 14.7 seconds to go from 0-62mph and has a fuel consumption of 48.7mpg.

For those who primarily drive in urban settings, the 0.9-litre TCe petrol engine is ideal. This powertrain provides 89bhp and takes 11.1 seconds to reach 0-62mph. It also boasts excellent fuel economy, with between 53.3 and 57.7mpg achievable on the combined cycle.

Those looking for something a little greener can opt for the petrol/LPG Bi-Fuel engine. This 1.0-litre 99bhp unit can accelerate from 0-62mph in 11.6 seconds and returns a combined fuel economy of 49.6mpg.

If you’re in need of even greater efficiency the 1.5-litre dCi diesel engine is perfect. This engine provides an output of 89bhp, takes 11.8 seconds to accelerate from 0–62mph, and returns up to 80.7mpg.
