Where each one leads
Dacia Lodgy
Ahead on none of the like-for-like measures.
Renault Clio
- Fewer Renault Clio cars in the Netherlands carry an illogical odometer record (2.7% against 3.6%).
- New Renault Clio cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 113 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 132 for the Dacia Lodgy in 2022.
- Measured by the cars' own fuel meters, the diesel Renault Clio uses 4.9 l/100 km on the road, the Dacia Lodgy 5.8.
- Measured by the cars' own fuel meters, the petrol Renault Clio uses 6.5 l/100 km on the road, the Dacia Lodgy 7.3.
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
