History of the Dacia Logan model
Launched in 2004, the Dacia Logan was born from a bold project initiated by Renault to create a family sedan accessible to emerging markets. Developed under the code name X90, it represented a revolutionary approach: offering a new, reliable, and spacious vehicle for less than 5,000 euros.
This three-box saloon was distinguished by its streamlined and functional design , favoring generous interior space and robustness over aesthetic refinement. With its cabin capable of comfortably accommodating five adults and its 510-liter trunk, the Logan met the essential needs of family mobility. Its commercial success was immediate, particularly in Eastern Europe and the Maghreb countries, paving the way for a whole range of Dacia model cars .
The history of the Dacia brand
Founded in 1966 in Romania, Dacia takes its name from the ancient Roman province that occupied what is now Romania. Initially created to produce vehicles for the local market under Renault license, the brand quickly developed its own industrial identity. The Dacia 1300, based on the Renault 12, quickly became the most popular car in Romania.
The integration of Dacia into the Renault group in 1999 marked a decisive turning point in the brand's history . This strategic acquisition allowed Renault to develop its vision of an accessible and unpretentious automobile, embodied by the Logan. Under the leadership of its new owners, Dacia gradually abandoned its aging models to focus on a modern and coherent range, positioned in the popular car segment.
A divisive pricing revolution
The launch of the Dacia Logan in France in 2005 provoked mixed reactions in the automotive world . Initially priced at €7,200, it challenged established codes and sparked heated debate. Some automotive journalists called it a "poor man's car," while others praised its radical pragmatism.
The most memorable anecdote remains that of its presentation at the 2004 Geneva Motor Show, where the Dacia stand, deliberately stripped down , contrasted with the usual luxury of the event. Louis Schweitzer, then CEO of Renault, fully assumed this difference: "We don't sell dreams, we sell mobility." This uninhibited approach quickly won over a pragmatic clientele, particularly young drivers and large families.
The Logan quickly became a sociological phenomenon , symbolizing the emergence of rational automobile consumption. Its success even inspired other manufacturers to develop their own "low-cost" ranges, permanently transforming the European market. In 2007, it became the best-selling car in Romania and was among the most popular models in several Eastern European countries.
This democratization of the new generation automobile makes the Logan a privileged witness to the social evolution of the 2000s, a period when access to individual mobility became a major concern in many emerging countries.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
Does the model car come with protection?
Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.
