Renault's value brand Dacia has revealed its Sandero supermini ahead of the Paris Motor Show next week.

The new model will go on sale at UK dealerships in January 2013 and Dacia says it will join the Duster SUV in ‘a two-pronged assault on the UK car market with an unbeatable combination of equipment, price and space’.

The new Sandero replaces the current model after four years.

The second-generation Sandero aims to be ‘more modern, purposeful and upmarket’.

Further details on the new Sandero, including pricing, specification and ordering, will be announced closer to its UK launch.
