From now on, called Dacia cars will gradually disappear due to no longer be manufactured. However, Automobile Dacia factory production is still in progress, but the relationship continued cooperation with Renault strong.
The Dacia was finally brought to a museum donation marks the end for a 35 year lifetime of the first car of Romania. Note that we just stopped making cars Dacia, and plants of the same name, where the first car manufacturer in Romania, continue to work with other product lines.
Its full name is Automobile Dacia. The plant began operations in 1968 (same year as the old Soviet Lada and FSO in Poland). Like Lada is the result of collaboration with Italy's Fiat car company, Dacia plant, located in Arges Pitesti, also derived from the agreement with an automobile plant in Western Europe as Renault (over 92% share part of Dacia). Created by Dacia cars are mainly sold in Romania and other Eastern European countries like Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Bulgaria. Some have been exported to Africa or South America.
The first model produced a Dacia 1100, a copy model Renault 8. It has the characteristics similar to other vehicles the same period (Fiat 850, NSU Prinz, ZAZ 966, Skoda MB-1000, ...) as follows mounted engine, 4-cylinder liquid-cooled, the 46 horse power capacity, speed 133 km / h.
Dacia 1100 was quickly forgotten, giving way to a more advanced models: 1969 series cars Dacia "1210/1310/1410" was launched with 3 different engine capacity.Besides the new head and tail, this car is not too different from the Renault 12, which is also produced in Turkey (where people call it Toros) and Argentina. The Break (station-wagon models) 1.6 turbodiesel motor, 70 horsepower capacity, such as the Volkswagen Golf at the time.
Dacia products of the latest non-primary manufacturing, but even in the form of the Renault car, even the customers in France will not get rich choice of Romania. Not only the sedan, the coupe Dacia there is Brasovia (like Renault 17), Sport (ceased production in 1989).
Dacia Brasovia
Dacia Sport
Dacia Lastun
Dacia also made national attention on a luxury car Dacia 2000, a repetition of the Renault 20. By the 1980s, Romania Government embarked on a project "small car with cheap (micro car)". The result is 500 Lastun born Dacia (car assembly plant by a different Dacia). Both models are on the "success" in below expectations.
Lastun vehicle quality is too low, moreover it is also inconsistent with the needs of a family. The engines of the type 2-cylinder, air-cooled, 23 horsepower, fuel consumption by about 3 ltr per 100 km, fiberglass tires, top speed 106 km / h.
The recent models
The Dacia / Renault 12 now indistinguishable from the previous version, except for a few strokes of the vehicle engine is changed and the new standard 1557 cc, 72 horsepower capacity. The thing now, few people remember is the Renault 12, it is still produced and sold in Romania.
Dacia SuperNova
Dacia Solenza
Dacia X-90
In 1997, the Dacia Nova launch. Not entirely new, as the name, Nova reuse the chassis of Peugeot 309, Renault engine with the old: a patchwork force shield. Nova has two engines Renault 1.4 and 1.6 of 12. However, since 1998, the car is equipped with electronic fuel injection system of Bosch. Next life, SuperNova can be considered best for the time that the engine Renault Clio 1.4, imported from France.However, the external appearance is like the car car in the early 80s.
Dacia Solenza, released in February / 2003, looks stunning but it is an improvement from the SuperNova, and differ only in the head and tail, plus redesigned interior. The car is fitted air conditioning, power windows, power steering and ABS anti-lock brakes. No modern cars with the same time the industry has not developed but Solenza obsolete as its predecessors.
Beginning in 2004, Dacia will embark on the production of X-90, a compact class car attached, with promising very cheap price, approximately 5,000 euros. X-90 will have three different motivations for customers: a three-cylinder engine capacity of 1,000 cc, a 4-cylinder engine and a 1200 cc diesel engine 1,500 cc. If successful, can pick-up versions, sedan and station wagon will in turn be released.
