Compare the Dacia Bigster vs Jaecoo 5
AI generated from our expert reviews
Both the Dacia Bigster and the Jaecoo 5 give you good visibility from behind the wheel, alongside a good amount of steering wheel adjustment to help you get comfortable. Inside, the Bigster retains physical switchgear for full climate controls, whereas the Jaecoo 5 has on-screen temperature controls that are fiddly. Practicality is a strong suit for the Bigster, which has a bigger boot than the Jaecoo 5 and provides more room with the back seats folded. Out on the motorway, the Jaecoo 5 is pretty quiet on a cruise, though its petrol engine is very noisy when accelerating and the gearbox will not always change gears as quickly as you would like. In the Bigster, you do notice that it is noisier at higher speeds, mostly in terms of wind noise.
