The French concern Renault presented the third generation of the Duster model, which was previously sold – and with great success – in Russia. As before, the crossover will be offered in Europe under the Dacia brand, and production will continue to take place in Romania.

The new Duster is built on the modern CMF-B platform and has a completely new body. However, the length has remained almost unchanged, but the crossover has become wider and lower: its dimensions are 4343 x 1809 x 1656 mm, the wheelbase is 2657 mm and the ground clearance is 217 mm.

The new product received a much stricter design with an abundance of sharp edges, corners and straight surfaces – in line with current fashion. What is striking are the protruding wheel arches and the abundance of unpainted plastic.

There will be three power plants: a 1.0-liter turbo engine with a power of 100 hp, a “mild” hybrid based on a 1.2-liter turbo engine with an output of 130 hp. Of. with a 48-volt starter generator and a ‘full-fledged’ hybrid with a 1.6-liter combustion engine of 94 hp. Of. and an electric motor. The total power of such an installation is 140 hp. Of. – and only it has an automatic transmission. The two younger versions only have a manual gearbox.

The clutch transmission drives the rear wheels and offers Eco, Auto, Snow, Mud, Sand and Offroad modes. And in none of them can it be strictly blocked anymore.

The new product will hit the European market in 2024, prices will be announced closer to launch. In Russia, the current generation Duster without mileage is no longer on sale – only used cars remain.
