Dacia has started teasing the new generation Logan and Sandero, suggesting that they are about to be uncovered, possibly as early as this month, in a short video published on social media today.

While they did not say what models are being previewed, it is clear that we are looking at the Logan sedan, Sandero hatchback and its high-riding twin, the Sandero Stepway.

In recent spy shots, we’ve seen that all three will have an evolutionary design bringing the current styling up to date while maintaining similar proportions.

Inside, a standalone infotainment system will sit on top of the new dashboard panel, next to the redesigned multi-function steering wheel. A push-button start will likely be part of the offering, but designers couldn’t be bothered with changing the controls used to operate the wipers and music/radio – we guess those are some of the cost-saving measures.

The biggest news, however, is that they will ditch the old platform in favor of a simplified version of the CMF-B, which is the foundation stone of the new Renault Clio and Captur. This will make them compatible with electrification, with earlier unconfirmed information stating that they will use the 1.6-liter E-Tech hybrid powertrain found in the French supermini, where it produces 138 HP (140 PS / 103 kW).

Mild-hybrid powertrains are understood to be employed later on, but besides the electrified range, the entry-level models should feature the naturally aspirated 1.0-liter three-cylinder petrol engine, with 75 PS (74 HP / 55 kW). The 1.0-liter turbo-three is also expected to be found under the hood of the mid-spec versions, with 100 PS (99 HP / 74 kW), and the 1.5-liter dCi diesel will live on as well, perhaps with 85 PS (84 HP / 63 kW). The 1.3-liter turbocharged gasoline unit co-developed with Daimler will reportedly be reserved for the Duster SUV.
