Dacia Duster Review | How Is It This Cheap!

pretty sure that faux leather plasticy stuff is called pvc/vinyl like in the 80's does it have an external temp gauge? like my cars to have one unfortunately my duster 4x4 13 plate doesn't but I still love it 😊😊

Good review Rob
However I've recently bought a Duster with the 1.3tce engine and I wouldn't want any less power, I can't imagine the 90bhp version being very good.

This engine is ment to go with LGP...I don't understand why it is sold in UK , probably to have a cheap entry engine. Anyway get the TCe 130 or 150 bhp and if you use 4x4 a lot get the diesel

This video is a reminder that the Duster is more than just a vehicle; it's a practical choice for everyday life.

I work in a mine as a geologist and in addition to Hiluxs and L200 we have around 10 Dusters, and thwyre absolutely amazing. Really good 4x4s, cheap and quite tough. Thwtes basivally never anything wrong with them, which can't be said about the Hiluxs...

It is not that cheap anymore. Not unless you take the basic model.

is too cheap = Made in morocco 🇲🇦

Really undecided between the 1ltr 90 or 130. Any advice? 2 kids and the wife with the occasional full load for a normal family car….

I need some advice. Planning to buy Duster Expression TCE 90. Is this is good enough engine (90HP) or is it weak? My primary usage is in city with occasional motorway drive....Is anyone driving Duster TCE 90, kindly share your feedback. Thanks

you can have lpg in this country ive ordered one coming in april

I have two! ‘18 manual and a ‘22 automatic lovely cars and as the reviewer states for the money you can’t beat it! Also my wife is on her 2nd Stepway (‘22) only downside is the electric hand brake on hers can’t get on with it personally but she likes it so that’s that!

just brought a 2019 duster - great video

Cheap? coz it's plastic and so bad looking!

Good honest cars like Skodas. Decent thorough review too.👍

How is it so cheap? Look the crash test then you see why it's cheap.

I rented one for my Patagonia trip and I was very impressed! And in the meantime I begun to REALLY like this vehicle. It has everything that I want and need, not more, nor less, and for a price you could only dream some time ago... I really recommend it, and lets hope Dacia/Renault stay true to this amazing concept and do not try to sell us overprized versions in the future!!! It is just fantastic the way it is and I am sure there lies the reason for its world-wide success!

Would the mg5 not be it's direct competition? Also is this the same 1 litre turbo that's in the Sandero?

They save the money by not including the electronic safety gear that essentially makes it like you never have to pay attention

…. but does it offer better safety? The Dacia vehicles may be cheap but their record when it comes to overall safety is shocking! I’d rather have a safer vehicle over aesthetic changes!

Nice review, I have an LPG version myself (22 plate prestige)and just to correct you a little, it IS possible to get the Bi-Fuel option still in the UK. How much longer is anyones guess but it's saved me a ton of money as my local texaco has it at 74.9p per litre at the moment. I get 30mpg on LPG (perhaps 35mpg on motorway cruise) and 45mpg on petrol. I rarely use the petrol and as a consequence I always fill with super unleaded and preferably zero ethanol. Having petrol with ethanol in the tank for long periods of time is perhaps the only thing to worry about imho. I'm waiting for the day they make a duster with PHEV and Bi-Fuel which would be a hell of a car with 4x4 too perhaps? I can only dream. Dacia must be giving it some thought with the upcoming ban on ICE soon. LPG stations are not as plentiful as I'd like but its still a lot less of an issue than charging points imho. LPG is much better for the environment than petrol or diesel, cheaper and the engine stays cleaner for longer, after 6000 miles so far my cars oil is barely turning brown. Worth noting if you fill the 40 litre LPG tank and the 50 litre petrol tank then the range is insane...

What is width of a back seat ? can anyone measure it ?

I'm from South Africa where it is sold as a Renault. Only the 1.5 turbo diesel engin available in S.A. I've got the 4WD which is amazingly capable off road and very frugal.

I Love the car. My Duster Extreme has 150 hp and is a dream. Greetings from Germany.

It may be cheap but it's very good that you drive and looking nice.

I have the 2022 prestige 4x2 bifuel and got mine in may. Done over 6000 miles now and it’s been great. Couple of niggles to sort when it goes in for service but overall a great car and I’d certainly buy another for 18k. Haven’t even tried the heated seats yet!
I’ve had golf’s, polos, 17 plate Ibiza and a 17 plate Leon. I liked my most recent car the Citroen c4 spacetourer but this is by far better value. LED headlights are brilliant and better than the Leon ones by a country mile!
Very happy owner and at 79p a litre from my local Morrisons for lpg it was a savvy purchase too!

The savings come from low paid workers. A Romanian working at the Mioveni factory would earn at least 3 times less than his counterpart in the western Europe.

I have had my Duster Bi Fuel (LPG) face-lift model for 14 months and 19000 miles now. No problems at all plus with a 50ltr petrol tank and 50ltr LPG tank I have a combined range of over 800 miles and pay 79.9p per litre for LPG. I run in LPG mode about 95% of the time and my fuel costs are half that of a petrol only version. I love it so much I have ordered a new one which will have the new Dacia branding and a higher specification (Journey)

"Dead pedal" rest u have in a left hand drive model 😜. good vid . Cheers

I have seen many experts views on this car. No one bad review,

My Extreme SE 1.3 Tce is a month old now and I have done about 950 mls having traded my BMW 128ti in for it and I actually prefer it to the BMW. It's a great car and after the BMW it actually feels like I am driving the car and not the car taking me for a drive.

I love the orange detailing, except for the "Duster" branding on the back

I believe in Latin America this model is sold as Renault Duster

No lie, I'll be getting one of these in a few months... To replace a Tesla model 3 😁

Just let you know, you can get LPG in UK ,I have ordered one and get it January 2023.

I got my Facelift 1.3tce130 Duster in July last Year and i am still in Love with it. I am a Mom of three Kids and it’s incredible how much Stuff you can fit in this Car. I‘ve done an 9 Hour Roadtrip from the Middle of Germany to Austria and it felt quite good. No Issues till today, a perfect modern Familycar for me. I never felt the need of more or something special. Its pretty practical and looks nice. I think you‘ll see that I love my Car. 😂 Greetings from Germany

The 4x4 version is simply unbelievably good. Puts many heavy duty 4x4's to shame

Had my Duster extreme 90 for a month now. great car and really impressed for the price. was meant to come with Apple / Android wireless but due to chip shortage it got removed but not a big deal using the USB cable.

Got all the power I need for most the time but think 1.3 would be fun.
didn't think I used the 360 camera but using it all the time now.

I'd be torn between the jogger and the duster. Only thing that puts me off the jogger is the 1 litre petrol engine.

Doubting, whether to buy the Jogger or Duster on LPG, live in Spain. I'm 6 foot 2 tall... Then which one would serve me best?

It’s really hard to decide between the Duster and Jogger. The MG ZS petrol might be slightly nicer than the Duster, but then the Jogger is still the best Dacia.

good vid

Everything you need and most of the things you want, why spend more

Are all the other companies just ripping us off?

It's good, but i'm happy with my dogger

I still don’t know how it’s so cheap!
