The Dacia Sandero, the UK's most affordable new car, is receiving a mid-life refresh with subtle design updates and potential interior improvements. Spy photos reveal the budget-friendly hatchback undergoing development testing.

Expected design changes include:

• Updated LED headlight patterns
• Modified grille design
• Reshaped front bumper with new air intakes
• New alloy wheel options
• Redesigned taillights

Interior updates may feature:

• New steering wheel design (borrowed from latest Duster)
• Larger 10.1-inch infotainment system (up from current 8.0-inch) on top trim levels

Engine options will likely remain unchanged:

• 91hp 1.0-litre standard engine
• 100hp BiFuel version (LPG compatible)

The refreshed Sandero is expected to maintain its sub-£15,000 starting price, positioning it as a value alternative to competitors like the Hyundai i20 and SEAT Ibiza. Full reveal is anticipated in late 2025, with sales beginning in 2026.
