Car model loved by Brits can be transformed into CAMPER with accessory range – including tent with blinds & mattress
DACIA have given adventure-seeking drivers a budget-friendly yet luxurious solution to camping - thanks to a snazzy range of accessories.
The Romanian brand, whose Sandero model was recently revealed to be the best-selling car across Europe, is hugely popular among Brits for their range of high-quality yet affordable vehicles.
But many might not know that some of their models can be transformed into makeshift campers - thanks to their aptly named 'InNature' Sleep Pack.
On the Dacia Jogger, for example, the Sleep Pack works by turning the rear seats and boot into a bedroom - in just a matter of minutes.
Coming in at 190x130 cm, the double bed is designed to fold out quickly, and comes with a wooden drawer with 220 litres of storage space.
Dacia even offers opaque blinds for each window, perfect for privacy while also allowing the interior to be plunged into darkness.

Finally, as a separate option, Dacia offers a fold-out tent that attaches to the boot lid and provides a large living space next to the rear of the car.
All the options come at different prices, although the costliest, the Sleep Pack Ultimate, comes in at just £2,165 - significantly cheaper than a motorhome.
Speaking to Sun Motors, Dacia says that the Bigster, although too early to confirm the price, will follow the same ethos.
2024 was generally a very good year for Dacia as a brand, as it became the continent’s biggest seller to retail customers overall.
In total, they sold 676,340 cars last year, which was an increase of nearly 3% on 2023.
They also account for close to 4% of all passenger car sales across Europe.
Dacia is not just about selling low-price hatchbacks though, as Sun Motors' supremo Rob Gill discovered last month.
The Romanian marque competed in the world famous Dakar Rally - a punishing 3,200-mile speed test across the breathtaking dunes of Saudi Arabia.
Or, as Rob puts it, the equivalent of the entire WRC season in 13 days.
