You see, the key word was always affordability. If you change that aspect, you defeat the entire purpose of the vehicle. The original target price was just €5,000, which assured you the reliable and affordable parts.
Since then, the Logan has slowly moved away from those ultra-cheap base versions that didn’t even have ABS. Naturally, entry-level prices went up as well.
Nevertheless, if you’d like to see what the Logan could look like if somebody decided to turn it into a more premium product, designer Laurent Schmidt put a little something together for your viewing pleasure. The result is a car that looks more like a concept than a production model.
The interior is really interesting too. It’s a mixture of Dacia and Mercedes-Benz, where the latter provided the steering wheel, air vents, buttons and switches, and presumably the materials as well.
You could say he dreamed of Mercedes-Benz A-Class quality in a Dacia Logan-shell.
