The Dacia Duster is a budget-priced five-door SUV with 4x4 capabilities. The second-generation Duster comes with a choice of one petrol and one diesel engine The second-generation model sees the car move more upmarket but it still maintains its charming appeal and starting price under £10k. A raised seating position and short dimensions make parking easy. The single automatic model has the most powerful engine, a 1.5-litre that is exceptionally smooth and refined. All versions are quiet on the motorway – sadly there isn’t an electric Duster just yet. RATING: 4/5 handbags. The Dacia Duster has grabbed a lot of attention and column inches by being cheap. This pound-store Renault (Dacia is a subsidiary of the French firm) throws up one question immediately: is it any good? What tow car ability does this Dacia have? And, as a used buy, is it a good one? The Duster isn’t just slightly cheap. The Dacia Duster, the most important model of the Romanian automaker, has entered its third generation, aiming to enhance the qualities that initially made it popular in the first place.The sub Dacia Duster: A whole lot of car, for not much money. As a long-term enthusiast for budget brands doing budget things, I was heartened by the latest Duster, writes Sean O’Grady yW1096x.
