The Renault Sandero is a small, inexpensive, compact city car manufactured by Renault and developed from the B0 platform of the Dacia Logan. It is intended to be Renault's salvo into the inexpensive, developing-world automotive market - specifically in South America with manufacturing assigned to Renault's Curitiba plant in Brazil and recently the plant in Medellin, Colombia [1].

Recent Changes
- For 2009, Renault will be introducing a new variant to their South America-only Sandero which will be called the Sandero Stepway Crossover. As the name implies, it is a "crossover" which is another way of saying a regular Sandero on a hopped up suspension + black plastic body cladding to give the car off-roading credentials it doesn't deserve. It will go on sale in October 2008 in Brazil to be followed by Argentina.[2]
