The best ever information that you can get on a vehicle is from the people who actually own it. And I have gathered some of the review comments on this car from net. belive me. you will get a complete idea of what this car is and its performance aspects.
I totally recommend this car though I dont own one.
Also. GUYS you will have to treat me for providing you with such a "RICH" information on the car.
*General comments?
I have the Ambition model. The interior design and components quality is "medium" compared major auto brands that I owned or tested, but I felt more comfortable in it than in many other cars.
The 90HP engine works well regarding sounds and pollution, but it didn’t manage to transform my car into a racing vehicle. Also the fuel consumption was good: 9.5% in the city in rush hour and 5-6% on continuous driving over long distances.
This vehicle comes with impressive features for its price: CD-Player, electric windows, electric setting for mirrors, ABS, air conditioning and power locks.
I was also impressed by the handling, especially in curves at high speed, where the car gave me the impression that it is very stable regarding its size.
I paid 8500E for this car and I’m very satisfied by this deal.

It’s a little to soon to declare it "OK" after a mere 1000 km(650 miles or something). Take another 10.000 km and come again with a comment. I’m quite interested in buying on and I need more information. Thanks and good luck from now on!

This is the best car ever. Not accidentally Renault has signed this car.

I am interested in buying the Logan model in Romania by the end of this summer. However as someone else was pointing out it is too early to get a clear idea how reliable a car the Logan is. My advice is to chat to people at petrol stations asking them how happy they are with their Logan. Meanwhile keep you comments coming in!

I have a Logan and I think that is a great car for its money. I drive approx. 100 Km/day in urban traffic and it’s easy to drive and the interior is quite pleasant. The only thing that I don’t like so much is the suspension that are a little bit hard for me. But otherwise I think this is normal because the car is high and hard suspensions are good in curves. 4500km until now and my father wants to buy one for him too.

I am working to a public agency in Romania, and we have a Dacia Logan with 40.000 km, without repairs. I can say that it is a good and resistant car, because we use it also on remote villages, and the roads are really bad there. The consumption is OK, only with AC it is a little bit higher. The suspension is also hard and stable in curves. So, who wants to buy a Logan, he will make a good deal.

I got a Logan myself, the Laureate version(2000 km so far in 6 weeks). My overall impression is quite good, you do get value for money with this one. I still got a number of things to complain about:(1) standard tires(for Romania, I mean, I am talking about Montana, apparently produced under Michelin license) are not the best option, adherence is not their strength.(2) The engine is pretty noisy at 120+ km/h.(3) Engine sounds like a Diesel when the A/C is on.(4) There are two hot-water pipes under the dashboard, right at the top of the right foot, so drivers with big feet should think twice before putting their sandals or beach slippers on.(5) Back seat cannot be folded, so you cannot carry anything long, such as a pair of ski runners or a fishing rod or surfboard, etc. But I do like the gear, which works great, and the stability of the vehicle at high speeds and in the curves. The trunk is huge. Five people can travel quite comfortably. I had two different types of Dacia before and Logan is definitely NOT a Dacia. It’s a far better car. Chairs are comfortable. In a word, I like it. If you want to know more, write to me at truda@k.ro.

I bought Logan 4 months ago after reading positive reviews in various automotive magazines. I’m satisfied with car so far. Handling is good, there is enough room for whole family, fuel consumption is correct.
I think that Logan has very correct value for price.

Come on pal.
Safety?
The car has 3 star ratings on Euroncap:
https://euroncap.com/content/safety_ratings/details.php?id1=6&id2=221.
The German test was a fake, they are protecting their market
because until now it’s a huge success low cost car. Did you know that a Mercedes model car also failed that test?
Those Germany tests were repeated by Top Gear and also supervised by Renault where it was succesfull, See:

Test it and drive it!

I am finding these web pages helpful. I think that all of us can think about how we can make our comments effective and fair. I have driven a Dacia Logan, but only briefly in a small test drive. It appears to offer very good value for the price. So I have started to ask others who I have seen driving the car what they think of it. Perhaps drivers could tell us what they think of the seats for example on a long trip. Are they hard or soft? Are they too supportive in some way or another or just right. I have driven a Skoda for example a lot and it is a very good car. But I find that the seat digs into the upper part of my back and I hate that as I have a broken vertebrae in the upper part of my spine that has healed. The seat is hard on the top and soft on the bottom. No good for me. I hope my thoughts help and I look forward to hearing from drivers as they put more kilo’s on Dacias.

This car actually is the best in that price range just because it is the only one out there. Its quality is doubtful, I have two colleagues that were uninspired enough to buy this car and now they keep complaining like: "Why did I have to pay 8000 EUR for a car that needs to be repaired monthly?". Ideal for the pride of poor people that they can finally afford a brand new car. Otherwise, spare some more money and get a real car.
