Insurance groups and tax bands for Dacia Sandero models

How much you’re quoted for your car insurance cover depends on a few different factors. While each insurer has its own criteria, things like your age and occupation are likely to play a part. The insurer will also want to know about the car you drive, and they may take note of its insurance group. These are bandings running from 1-50 that reflect the costs and risks associated with each model of vehicle, therefore helping insurers gauge the scale of potential claims. Learn more about how car insurance groups work.

There’s also road tax to think about. Vehicle Excise Duty also uses a banding system, whereby you’ll be charged annually based on the CO2 emissions of your car model.

Tax bandings and insurance groups for some editions of the Sandero include:

Model Insurance Group Tax Band
Dacia Sandero 1.2 16V Access 5d 2 E
Dacia Sandero Access SCe 75 5d 3 G
Dacia Sandero 1.0 SCe Essential 5d 6 G
Dacia Sandero 1.5 dCi Ambiance 5d 8 A
Dacia Sandero Laureate TCe 90 5d 9 F

We aim to offer our comprehensive cover to as many drivers as possible, but we can’t guarantee we can always insure every model and variants of car, and this could include some Dacia Sandero vehicles.

We will determine if we can provide you with a quote based on a number of factors that include your car and your personal circumstances.

At Ageas, we work hard to offer our comprehensive car insurance to as many UK drivers as possible. However, we can’t promise a policy for every kind of car or circumstance, and this could include some Dacia models.
