Edit: Just asked because of curiosity. I’m not actually looking for such vehicles.
Edit 2: So for context, my parents new Toyota has this feature that allows the GPS location of the car to be sent to toyota, then you can see the location via an app on android/ios (it’s supposed to be an anti-theft feature). The data is sent via an antenna that connects to cell towers, which then connects to the internet, and to the toyota servers. “Diagnostic” and “maintenance” information is also sent via those same antennas.
The dealer said it could be turned off, but who knows if they are really off. There’s not a hard switch on the car.
The great part of Dacia is that you can probably buy any faulty part for a bag of peanuts and a pack of cigarettes and thieves won’t even bother you so no need for “anti-theft” feature
Just hope you’re never involved in an accident, they’re generally pretty shitty safety-wise.
The bad part of Dacia is that last time I checked they only offered diesel and LPG versions (for the model I was interested in).
