That's a really good looking Renault hatchback- nicer than the planned facelift for the Clio. is it going to be sold elsewhere?

Inminent facelift on Clio is going to update an old looking car from scratch. Way more modern than this franco-romanian "Tata".

Clio is also more expensive and in reality it is the same car with a different shell. Nothing wrong with dacia, my grand uncle has one from 1972 which he has had since new and it still runs strong, no rust. Not the most technologically advanced cars in the world but that's whats good about them in their market, cheap cars for the common people. They are reliable and if something breaks it's cheap and easy to fix. I changed the clutch on that 1972 for 12$ and took me 2hrs in a driveway. Now that's a people's car. And FYI just because it is made in romania doesn't mean anything we are a smart people with 1000s of years of history and just because we got pillaged by communism and turned into a poor country doesn't mean we are incapable of assembling a car. That was only 44 years of poverty which is meaningless on the scale of our history in which we were relatively a wealthy country. Bucharest was lit by electricity when the americans hadn't even discovered California and still rode on horses.

Yeah, but the fact that Dacia has marketed rebadged antique Renault's for decades is surely linked to french colonialism back in the day too. On another note, I once had a gf from Moldova, and the area of Transilvania is great, not to mention Count Dracula's link with some west european royals, I wasn't trying to sound disrespectful or anything, but same applies to Tata in India. Many thousands of years ago, Indians were extremely advanced in science and sacred knowledge, but we just can't expect Veyron's from them in the short term...

French colonialism? Romania was never a french colony. Part of the roman empire, ottoman empire, austro-hungarian empire but never had anything to do with the french. Also vlad tepes (dracula) was 100% romanian, it was durring the austro-hungarian rule in 1866 some 390 years after vlad that the austro-hungarian empire decided to appoint Prince Karl of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen(somewhere in germany today). That dynasty is somehow related with the british royal family. I was actually in Brasov which is a city in the province of transilvania and that's where Bran's Castle is. I was expecting some scary stuff like dungeons and stuff but it was actually warm and cozy it was more of Queen Marie's summer retreat, vlad was actually only there for 2 days in the dungeon when the turks had control of the area. American marketing but hey it makes the ppl of that village some money. His home was actually Poienari Castle/Citadel.

Here in Brasil, this video is been shown in a short version to fit the 30 seconds TV advertising standards. The car looks better than its sedan version, the Renault (Dacia) Logan, that is becoming common in the streets more for its cost x benefits ratio than for its beauty.

hah didnt say that either, just that ive always heard that, in the past, romania had been heavily influenced by the french, culturally speaking.. and those german princes were surely linked to the british crown, since theyre german themselves (saxe-coburg and gotha), but still, there are rumors connecting vlad tepes with the windsors today eventho ive never taken the time to verify to which extent this could be mere speculation
