Dacia’s award-winning streak continues, as the Bigster has been crowned ‘Family Car of the Year’ at the 2025 News UK Motor Awards. This marks the brand’s fourth consecutive win at the prestigious event, which is judged by experts from The Times, The Sunday Times and The Sun.
The panel praised the Bigster for its unbeatable combination of space, comfort and value, qualities that have made it a hit with UK families since its launch earlier this year.
Will Dron, Digital Driving Editor at The Times and The Sunday Times, commented:
“It was only a matter of time before Dacia brought in a larger SUV aimed at growing families, and it has outdone itself. The Bigster delivers more space than the excellent Duster, with a huge boot for its class, along with the affordability for which the brand is famous. But what nobody saw coming was for Bigster to be so comfortable, high tech and good to drive. For us, it absolutely deserves the title of Family Car of the Year.”
This latest success follows previous wins for other models in Dacia’s line-up: the Duster was named Value Car of the Year in 2024, the fully electric Spring claimed the same title in 2023, and the seven-seat Jogger started the streak with its win in 2022.
Luke Broad, Dacia Brand Director for the UK, said:
“Bigster has struck a real chord with British families since it arrived just a few months ago. They tell us they love the space, the flexibility, the comfort and the robust SUV style, all at a price that makes sense. To now see Bigster recognised as ‘Family Car of the Year’ by such respected motoring experts is hugely rewarding and proves that Dacia continues to deliver exactly what families are looking for.”
