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.
