Dacia Duster Extreme 4x4 2024 - Almost Perfect (ENG) - Test Drive and Review

2024 Dacia Duster is the third generation of an affordable b-crossover. More than 20 years after the original Duster debuted, the new model has almost identical dimensions. However the designers managed to find extra space inside. The front passengers benefit from greater interior width, and the rear passengers get more legroom. This was possible thanks to the new platform. Other benefits that come with it are the new powertrains and new mandatory safety systems. Does this mean the end of mediocre crash test results? We'll find out soon, when the new Duster will be tested by Euro NCAP.

Mine is coming around end of December, same as in this video. First new car, first duster. For me who live in the countryside with bumpy roads, go sometimes for either the mountain or the coast, and mostly commute to work in the city everyday, this duster seem like the perfect compromise for that price. I'm really looking for versatility but I don't expect any kind of particularly good performance on anything, just a car that will do it's job whatever it is, in relative confortable, with no pretention to leave a porches cayenne behind, pull more than my volkswagen crafter I use for work, or anything special. Just a good car that will last some time I'd taken care of

Originally I had my eye on the full hybrid because I wanted an automatic transmission, but given the price premium I think the manual 4x2 is better value despite its issues.

@nikpap64 27 дней назад

An interesting proposition within this price range considering the improvements and the conveniences of having a 4x4 vehicle. The engine though is small if you need to tow a trailer.

@10mbc Месяц назад

I test drove the Duster Extreme Hybrid and one of my favorite hill was close to the dealership. I was not over the top yet and the battery was depleated, leaving me with a low power NA engine. I did not like that, given the price of the Hybrid option. I did not have the chance of driving the LPG engined Duster or the 1.2 Turbo mild hybrid.

@MarekDrivesENG Месяц назад

Even if the battery looks empty, it's still there giving you some assistance. You'd have to drive the car on track to go below a critical threshold, in which case you'd get some sort of a warning.

@10mbc Месяц назад

@@MarekDrivesENG I'm on my 2nd mild hybrid with a manual and on a manual you feel it way more than on a automatic. You don't need a track and you get no warning, it's just that you don't get the assist. There is no need for a track, you just need a steep mountain road and we have plenty around here. My i30 has a 0.85 kwh traction battery and the Hybrid Duster has a 1.2 kwh traction battery and, while my ISG has 17ps max, the Duster's electric engine has 49 ps so it will drain the battery even faster. At this moment, I'm pretty sure I ran out of usable traction battery during the drive test.

@maartenk7513 23 дня назад

@maxinlux6570 26 дней назад

Excellent review- Sometimes brutally honest, but I think all your criticisms are justified. My wife and I have run a number of Sanderos and Dusters, Gens 1 to 3, she's currently on a Gen 2 Duster (our second one, first may have been Gen 1.5...). They all do what they say on the tin, have been fuss-free and have provided reliable, acceptable transportation (some more than others in that last regard) over many years. I have recently upgraded to a Mazda CX 60 PHEV in top trim with all the bells and whistles and... Honestly? I might almost be happier with a Gen 3 Duster at between 1/3 and 1/2 the price. Duster cannot please everybody 100% all the time, or any car for that matter.

@Hvitserk67 27 дней назад

A nice video and it's a pity that Dacia/Renault failed to execute what is fundamentally both a good idea and a car in a better way. There is definitely a pretty big market for a car like the Duster. In Germany, for example, the car has had a large following since the first generation and it is popular to modify the car with both better parts and technical solutions. As far as I understand, there is great criticism from that side that the new generation does not have proper side windows behind the C-pillar. I guess this is primarily a design thing, but a bit of the utilitarian aspect of the previous generations is definitely gone. In any case, many search for cheap cars such as the Duster while they wait for electric cars to become both better and not least cheaper.

@raresbudusan7848 13 дней назад

Since it was launched in 2010 and we are in 2024, Duster has 14 years not 20 years... but you are right, size and shape are pretty much the same

@MrChipcho 27 дней назад

Frankly the duster has been pretty good since its inception. Its a cheap (well it was, its getting more expensive), low tech crossover. If you are poor you can still afford it and use it as daily, if you have money you can buy is a second car and use it on roads where you dont want go with your daily car.

6:25 I think I've seen this review 3 or 4 times as the new Duster is starting to grow on me but it's the first time I heard you say this about the AC. I drove test 2 cars, both Extreme HEV and both had issues with the AC. Going from my wonderful AC in my i30 to the problematic one in the Duster was pretty obvious but never have I addressed the issue with the salesman.

@MarekDrivesENG 14 дней назад

I spoke to my colleagues, who reviewed this and other press cars. Apparently the only way to make the AC actually blow cold air in this one is to put it in the lowest cooling setting, and hope you won't freeze. Another journalist reported a problem with AC during the launch event, but they were given the standard "pre-production car, isolated incident" excuse.

It's interesting that Dacia is always helped by Renault thinking and yet also held back by Renault thinking. It's a real shame because this car - like French cars in general - is really nice, but just won't fly here in Asia where we demand practicality and simplicity come first in our low-cost cars and Dacia would be laughed out of the room for a rear door pocket that won't take a 500mL bottle, let alone those wacky You Clip accessories. (Props to you, Marek, for not gushing over them like every other motoring journalist)

Good review. This is the first Duster I don't consider to buy. This is not the price range to choose esthetic cars but frugal and functional. One step forward with design, two steps back with engine choice. I am sceptical about the tow capacity of these engines.

@MarekDrivesENG 24 дня назад

I feel as if towing is Europe's answer to pick up trucks. A lot of people say they want big towing capacity, but they never (or rarely) tow anything, let alone something that would max out a car's towing capacity. Having said that, if I planned on towing something really heavy, I'd never consider a B-crossover.

Notebooks? Do kids know how to write or draw by hand nowadays? I bet they look for the on button.... oh wait, things don't have buttons anymore. And as far as the Duster goes, it's a very classy looking car. And it's affordable. I do wonder if a hybrid system would be the perfect compliment to that 3 cylinder engine. Sure it would cost more but in the long run you'd save a ton in fuel costs. People who buy vehicles like this probably drive them into the ground so it would be worth it.

I am considering the Duster in top spec Hybrid 1.6 litre 4x4 extreme model like the look of it we are at the moment still waiting for the car to be launched in the United Kingdom been told around september but should be able to get a test drive before then . never considerd the duster before now thought it was very ugly looking car and very nasty looking inside and out but this model is leaps and bounds better looking than the models before we are at the moment running a Nissan Navara double cab pickup which is Techna trim top of the range auto but its thirsty Big at over 5 m long and it weight is 2.3 tons all in all big Car I need something with half the size and less fuel and less insurance and the Dacia seems to fit the bill well we will see soon great video thank you.

I like that u tell the truth. If u live in a rural area, with hills and difficult roads ,this is a cheap new car to buy. But if u dont live in that kind of area, and you care about your safety in case of a crash, you should pick a better brand car, even a second hand will be a better choice.

@trackingcalin1988 26 дней назад

8:15 Nobody said that space is for smartphones. Many cars have that kind of space and it is before phones were invented. You can put there something light, some napkins, cigarettes, a wafer, a bag of hazelnuts, and you have to make sure that what you put in that space will not cause problems. Any normal person understands that the phone should not be placed in that space, just as you understand that you do not put a cup of coffee on the dashboard while driving. You criticize a hypothesis created by you. It can be used as a temporary space where you can quickly throw some bills or place your wallet, it's a useful space.

The Duster in this spec is a bit too fancy. Heated steering wheel and a digital display? Blasphemy! On a more serious note, at a lower price in a cheaper spec I would be more willing to overlook some of the issues you've found with the Duster. I have to give kudos to Dacia though for putting in some thought and effort in the design - the ISA button is great and the U clip system could be a bit of fun especially for people making their own things with a 3D printer.

@MarekDrivesENG 27 дней назад

AFAIR this one doesn't have heated steering wheel (or seats), but it's an option never available before. So it can get even more expensive :)

We recently went to see the Duster, but we were disappointed. The camera system and parking sensors malfunctioned on the demo car; the seat material (identical to the one in this video) looked and felt very cheap and uncomfortable. Honestly, I wouldn't recommend this car. On top of that, the price is staggering: €26,300 for the 4x2 hybrid version with automatic transmission in Journey trim. No!
