The 2026 Dacia Jogger arrives on the market with a major redesign that promises to maintain its success in Europe, combining versatility, technology, and more efficient engine options. With a renewed design and new propulsion options, it positions itself as one of the best choices for families and active individuals looking for a multifunctional and economical vehicle.
Modern Design and Functionality Within Everyone’s Reach
The visual update of the 2026 Dacia Jogger brings a design language more aligned with the brand’s recent models, such as the Sandero and the Duster. The new LED light signature, resembling an inverted “T,” gives a more striking visual identity to the front, highlighted by the new bumper and redesigned grille. This renewal not only modernizes the vehicle but also emphasizes its robustness and contemporary style.
At the rear, the LED-Pixel technology lights form a harmonious ensemble with the trunk window, highlighting the vehicle’s family-friendly and practical appeal. For those seeking greater exclusivity, the new “Sandstone” color adds a sober and elegant tone to the palette, while sustainable details, such as the wheel arch protectors made with “Starkle” recycled plastic, reinforce Dacia’s commitment to environmental sustainability.
To complete the look, the wheels vary between versions with simpler wheel covers and alloy wheels, depending on the trim, and starting from the Expression level, the exterior features a shark fin antenna, which, in addition to being stylish, improves the car’s connectivity.
Technology and Comfort that Delight Inside
The interior of the 2026 Dacia Jogger receives special attention regarding comfort and technology. Options range from durable fabric linings to elegant denim upholstery, featured in the Journey version, reinforcing the model’s casual and modern vibe. On the other hand, the Extreme version prioritizes robustness, with resistant materials such as Microcloud-TEP and rubber mats, perfect for intense use and adverse conditions.
The dashboard redefines the driving experience with an ergonomically redesigned steering wheel and a new electronic selector for automatic versions, facilitating handling and bringing modernity to the interior. Also noteworthy is the 10.1-inch multimedia center with wireless connection for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along with an induction charger for smartphones, which places the Jogger on a technological level above the competition.
Complementing the package is the Media Nav Live system, present mainly in the higher-end versions, which includes connected navigation with real-time traffic information and maps updated for 8 years. The sound delivered by six speakers with Arkamys 3D technology provides immersive sound quality, ideal for family trips or adventures with friends.
A unique feature is the YouClip attachment points, which allow various accessories to be coupled—from tablet holders to glasses cases and shopping bags, increasing internal functionality for different daily needs.
Renewed Engine Lineup: More Power and Efficiency with Hybrid and LPG Options
The technical aspect of the 2026 Dacia Jogger is one of its biggest differentiators, bringing an expanded offering that appeals to various driver profiles. The major novelty is the updated hybrid engine, which replaces the previous 140 hp unit with the new Hybrid 155 system. This setup combines a 1.8 petrol engine with two electric motors, a 1.4 kWh battery, and a multi-mode automatic transmission, raising the power to 155 hp and torque to 170 Nm, all while reducing consumption and emissions by up to 10%.
For those living in urban environments, the hybrid model promises up to 80% of the journey can be completed exclusively in electric mode. Furthermore, starting always occurs in fully electric mode, reinforcing the economy and conscious use of the vehicle in city traffic.
Another innovation is the launch of the Eco-G 120, Dacia’s first LPG engine equipped with a dual-clutch automatic transmission. Its 120 hp power is combined with a gas tank with 20% increased capacity (48.8 liters), enabling a total range of up to 1,480 km, which significantly reduces fuel costs. For those who prefer a manual transmission, the TCe 110 with six gears remains available as an entry-level option.
Regarding safety and convenience, the updated Jogger comes with modern driving assistants, such as automatic braking with pedestrian, cyclist, and motorcyclist detection, fatigue alert, a 360-degree camera, and electrically folding mirrors. These features raise the safety standard and make daily use more comfortable and peaceful.
The expectation is that the 2026 Dacia Jogger will arrive on the Brazilian and European markets in early 2026, maintaining a competitive price, with starting values close to 17,990 euros for the basic versions, prioritizing cost-benefit and a wide variety of trims and engines to meet current public needs.
