Real-world fuel consumption
10,243 Dacia Lodgy cars registered in Europe between 2021 and 2023 report their fuel use through the on-board meter. Diesel versions average 5.8 l/100 km on the road, against 4.9 l/100 km in the official WLTP test — 18% more.
| Fuel | Cars | On the road | WLTP | Difference |

| Petrol | 3,160 | 7.3 | 6.3 | +15% |
| Diesel | 7,083 | 5.8 | 4.9 | +18% |
Litres per 100 km: total fuel used divided by total distance driven, from the car's own fuel consumption meter (OBFCM), collected in 2024 by the manufacturers, mostly remotely, and by national authorities. WLTP figures are the type-approval CO₂ values converted to litres. Hybrids, including mild hybrids, do not plug in; plug-in hybrid figures include the distance driven on electricity.

EU safety alerts
Safety Gate, the European Union's rapid alert system, names the Lodgy in 7 alerts. European versions can differ from the North American car.
The functioning of the driver airbag may be impaired. As a result, the airbag may not provide protection in the event of an accident.
Due to the lack of a warning label, the third row of seats could be used while the second row is folded down. As a result, in certain driving situations, the second row could fold back and injure passengers sitting behind.
There is the risk of the airbag failing to deploy correctly. As a consequence, a partial or total loss of the protection provided by the driver airbag can occur.
The catalytic converter has not been correctly welded. As a consequence, exhaust gas may leak into the engine compartment.
The hydraulic unit of the anti-lock braking /electronic stability control system may have been contaminated with plastic or metallic particles during the manufacturing process. This could lead to a decrease in the efficiency of the anti-lock braking and/or the…
Owing to a manufacturing defect, the track rods may break leading to failure of the steering.
There is a risk that the seat-back of the rear seats may become loose, leading to poor restraint of the rear passenger in case of a front shock or violent braking.
