Renault Duster (2012-2021)

After 5 years of ownership, I can say with confidence that the Duster is a no-nonsense SUV that gets the job done. And, very reliable as well because I never face a single issue over these years, of course I have done regular maintenance. THe Duster is spacious enough for the family and easy to drive no matter be it city or highway. Never felt low on the mileage, and its compact size also helped in easy navigating and parking in the city. I know it is a compact SUV, and doesn’t have all the top features, but then the price justify what Renault provides.

Today, Duster looks old simply because this platform has aged considerably since its launch 15 years ago. It has undergone several upgrades yet it has come to a time where it needs a complete overhaul. However, in its glory days, the Dusters proved to be an extremely capable, strong and highly practical SUV. It in fact defined the compact SUV segment, originally. I still drive one as my regular car for the city, and I admire its performance. Even after a decade of ownership, it has never really had any issue at all that makes it quit a reliable car.

I live in an area with winding mountain roads and I must admit the fact that the Renault Duster has proven to be my life's indispensable part. Its powerful engine ensures a comfortable ride even over the challenging terrain and steep inclines that are quite common in our area. Whether ascending notorious passes or navigating through hairpin turns, the outstanding torque and pulling power of Duster ensures a confident ascent. I can't doubt its ability to conquer the challenging routes. When I am driving on the open road, it feels like a serene sanctuary amidst the ever-changing landscapes.

This is one of the most competent SUV models that I might have emerged from Renault brand and is highly sought after amidst car lovers these days. The car is either available in awd versions or in diesel. Though when it comes to creature comforts this may not be considered to be that suitable option. In spite of being as capable as a compact SUV the model did not receive fame and reputation as it deserves. Both in terms of driving dynamics and handling this is a fabulous car. The engine options are pretty decent when it comes to this model.

I recently retired from my company, and this led to the need to manage my finances. Renault Duster helps in keeping my transportation cost low. Its fuel-efficient engine allows me to go on long drives without the need to stop at frequent intervals for refueling. I also swear by its off-roading abilities. Even after retirement, I have been able to satiate my adventurous spirit with the help of this car. Whether it is a thrilling drive to the countryside or a camping trip, Renault Duster is ready for whatever challenges I throw at it.

This SUV manufactured by Renault is a creation of experts! I now enjoy traveling in this compact SUV every single day. My mover's plush and adaptable seats are admired because they allow my elderly parents to travel in the most comfortable position. It is highly regarded for its immediate availability for action on the road. I highly depend upon the controls and top-notch features that include very doting and active safety features. It's a great option for long-distance travel. It is commendable that the manufacturers have also taken the pricing policy into consideration while adhering to the price tag.

With its new front end, roof bars, and expressive, modern, and robust lines, the all-new DUSTER's dynamic design is sweeping off my feet. I bought the duster very recently on my friend's advice who has been a fan of this car ever since he bought it last year. The car gives me the best I was keenly looking for in my four-wheeler. It has whooping fuel efficiency that makes it drive up to 100 km in nearly 6 liters of fuel. This is indeed an extra-urban cycle fuel consumption. For the interiors, the all-new duster has reinvented itself with new, adjustable seats and an ergonomic dashboard and central console for the driver's comfort while aboard.

I have been using Duster from more than 1 year now. Satisfied in over all. Pros: Budget friendly when buying, nice design especially head lights & front grill,Smooth suspension,driving comfort in humps,bouncy roads and in u- turn. Like interior/cabin noise insulation. Cons: Maintenance cost especially agency service cost is high.

I love this car. I have driven more than 50 models of different cars & SUV in my life. Out of them there duster in top 5 in terms of driving comfort and its suspension.Especially when you drive on rough terrains with the competitive brands, you will feel the difference. Duster has very light steering wheel and nice torque. Only thing they have to improve their spares to be in cheap and should improve the quality in infotainment and interior systems. Value for money in short.

The Renault Duster offers a genuine experience of how an SUV feels with its rugged experience under the skin. Despite having a relatively compact size, the Renault Duster feels like a big SUV in not only the way it performs, but in the way it looks as well. The SUV’s muscular appeal with flared wheel arches and a high raised bonnet indeed is appealable to SUV fanatics like me. While the Renault Duster is a great driver’s car, I do wish that Renault had paid slight attention more towards making the cabin slightly more premium than how it actually feels. While it lacks the premium feel of other compact SUVs like Creta, the overall practical aspects like comfortable ride quality, punchy performance and great cabin space have made me feel that I haven’t made a wrong decision.
