Dacia unveils its revolutionary car for the Dakar Rally 2025
Dacia unveiled the prototype of the Dacia Sandrider, built in collaboration with Prodrive, at a presentation in Paris.

The car features a new three-litre turbocharged V6 engine powered by synthetic fuel. Dacia plans to launch the Sandrider in April in the UK and will compete in the Morocco Rally in preparation for the 2025 Dakar Rally. Dacia will continue to compete in Dakar until at least 2027. The Sandrider has improvements in reliability, including a four-wheel drive package and modifications to the gearbox and brakes. The team will be managed by Tiphanie Isnard and the technical director is Philip Dunabin.
