2020 Dacia Duster SUV review - the best family SUV for a tight budget? | What Car?

The new Dacia Duster remains a cheap, no-frills option in a highly competitive class with a starting price that massively undercuts all of its rivals, including the Seat Ateca and Nissan Qashqai. But is there more to the new Duster than a cheap price tag?

The duster is hands down the best budget suv on the planet. Ive driven the new one and also the 2017 model. Drove 4x2 models on mountains, narrows passes, hills pretty much everywhere, it always felt like a 4x4 although it was a 4x2 model. Can imagine the 4x4 model. Top stuff... i even driven it in off roads in Italy spain... amazed and amazed my fellow passengers. Top car well done dacia.

[@NAKMUAYACADEMY]

[@sonicblast19]

You get what you pay for. Sure it may not be the safest car in case of accidents, but it is brand new and you have a warranty in case something doesn't work right, but when you buy a used car for the same money you may get something even less safer with hidden problems or something that will happen eventually. What I am saying is that when you go second hand you don't know what you are buying, most people don't care about your well being and they will sell you a faulty car or a car that was wrecked and badly repaired.

[@borderlands6606]

Like it or loathe it Dacia is the future. No haggle cars bought on line. No frills, no salesman's salaries to pay, built in low pay economies. Every manufacturer is looking at the Renault/Dacia construction and sales model. Give it a few years and the roads will be full of sub-10k practical motor cars. And about time too.

Yes! After owning one for the last four years, a different model though a 4x4 / 1.2 L petrol/ 125HP one that I have tried out with huge landies and Toyotas in the south of Israel, in the marsh areas of the north, in streams and sand. She (Nadia is her name) is definitely my playmate and great to drive to the office during the week. Very happy with the price, did get the underside armoured for all the off roading and no problems so far. Gas her up, service once a year and she waits for my next adventure. Cheers!

I have owned the previous generation diesel 4x4 for over a year. Goes anywhere, does everything you want and more, for half the price of rival manufacturers equivalent models. Hard, easily cleaned, plastic panels are great in a workhorse vehicle. An additional bonus is that Dacia do not restrict four wheel drive to only their most prestigious trim levels. You get what you pay for and you need only pay for the options you want. Other manufacturers should take note. Quite simply, the only option for many buyers to experience owning a brand new car with exactly the specifications they want.

[@tonywilliams9971]

I have now driven my Renault Duster for 18 months. Before this I drove a Mercedes Benz E 350 CDI. The Duster is way more comfortable! The Duster is more reliable! In my view the Duster is real value for money. From 30 000 kms, the E 350 started to present problems, mainly with sensors. Limp mode in the E 350 was common! My Duster certainly does not compare in the power stakes, but what a pleasure not having that nagging feeling that another sensor breakdown was imminent . These were very expensive repairs. My Duster has thus far proved to be peace of mind motoring.

[@tg1w]

Do you have the petrol or diesel version? My Merc also loves going into limp mode from time to time... depressing.

[@TheOpelkoenjas]

We ordered/bought the 15th Anniversary of the Duster, TCe 130 GPF engine, full option (except for the 360 degree camera, which I would never use anyway), two days ago. We were able to get a very good deal for our old Kia Rio car from Dacia and on top of that they gave a nice discount for the Duster because it's a car they have in (over)stock due to Corona. We payed less than 16.000 Euros for that beauty!! The car will be delivered in about 1 to 2 weeks (max), and I can't wait to drive it around!! PS: I fell in love with the Duster back in 2014 already, but back then it had too many flaws to convince me buying it. I'm happy that I waited 6 more years to buy me one. The second generation surely improved A LOT. It's clear Dacia listened to their customers and tackled all the problems customers had serious complaints about. Thumbs up from me!

I think the bigger question is, will people prefer to buy a slightly older SUV from a quality brand? The duster has a lot going for it if you were ONLY interested in a brand new car but I can't think of any reason why someone wouldnt instead go for a 2015/16 competitor. Better quality, better engines. And some have manufacture warranties that extend to 5+ years. This is a biproduct of having massive market depreciations in the car values.

Always nice to see and hear Rebecca. Vehicle reviewed is not sold in North America, but its Nissan cousin is. Come over and review/ visit us, Rebecca!

[@sorinoroviceanu144]

There is this basic question: how much would you pay for a car? Duster is basic, of course, but for the right price. Add soft materials inside, electronic gizmos, more powerful engines and you will end paying 5-10 Thousand more. That brings Duster in the area of Kadjar and Qashqai. This brand is owned by Renault-Nissan and has its well defined place in the french-japanese portfolio. Negative comments are useless. Everything comes down to cost. If is was more sophisticated it would not have been at all.

[@Dosedmonkey]

You can't get to kadjar price even with the limited edition duster they are offering now. So that's not true. ;) But you also can't get the interior design of the kadjar. But other then that they are quite similar.

[@anthonytube]

Always like them regardless of cost so went and borrowed a new one thanks to a dealer in Brighton (Hendy). I was really impressed with it. Simple in nature and does not pretend to be something it isn't. I love the styling and it drove way better than expected. It's spacious, practical and has charm of it's own. Frankly for those of us who prefer to own their own cars (rather than leasing one) the way the market is moving towards the future, it seems silly dropping £30-50k on a premium car when soon all 2nd hand values will fall off a cliff. I'm going to wait for the 1.3 TCE with updated infotainment coming in the new year and use it for weekend adventures without worrying about leaving it parked up.

[@mrdemocracy7106]

The new Dacia dusters with the new TCE engines are even better.

[@oojimmyflip]

[@nianudd1751]

Its excellent. I've had mine 8 weeks now, 1ltr TCE Comfort, and I can't find fault with it. Even with the car fully laden for a camping trip, complete with roof bag, it was an incredibly smooth ride, with plenty of oomph left for overtaking. And do I really need all the gizmos like buttock conforming heated seats, psychic crash warnings, etc? No, no I don't. Same with complaints about the basic plastic trim, what am I missing, expensive rare coral for the vents, endangered hardwoods for the dash, a humpback whales spine formed to a steering wheel? No thanks. It drives well, and is easy to clean. That's what I wanted, and thats what I got. Go for it

[@euteo]

I don't agree with one thing. The bashing of the quality of interior plastics. They are an upgrade from the previous version, but the way more expensive competition does not offer better plastics nowdays either. The T-Roc for example is a hard plastic horror inside, the Vitara, same hard glossy plastic that always makes cracking noises over bumps or if you touch it, the Ateca, although much more expensive, still has comparable plastics in many places.

[@anthonytube]

Actually that's so true... I had a brand new smart car for a few hours... Holy hell the plastics were shocking. The Duster's are a matt finish and really tough exactly what you want on a car like this. Trust me I panic opening the door of my BMW in a down pour.

Very good point. What car under 40 000 doesn't have cheap plastic interior ?

Which I'm very pleased to say, isn't the case in my Dacia Sandero Urban Explorer (and neither in the Duster), and was in my previous Ford Focus, which costs almost twice as much.

You need nice steering wheel and nice gearbox to touch. And Duster have both of this with soft leather materials. What is the problem with all the plastic on board if you never touch it? The steering wheel is actually premium quality. The door armrest is leather too, and seats are comfortable.

I like these cars. They are amazing value for money especially with the new 1.4 turbo engine. What puts me off is the model name Duster. This name makes it sound cheap and nasty and the car certainly isn't.

I've heard this false statement too many times: 'Dacia is based on the old Renault Clio platform'. Really? And now of course Dacia Duster is based on Renault Clio platform. I am waiting for the new Dacia Lorry based on you guessed it ...Reanult Clio.

I wondered about that. If it is the Clio I know of, I struggle to see how the wheelbase and track width would suit this SUV. Unless as it is with Golf it has grown considerably since the mark 1 model.

Platforms means the front and rear subframes principally (all the suspension arms, steering etc), as well as the fuel tank, electrics layout, switchgear, engines (including radiator & expansion tank), transmissions and so on.

3:46 not the best "shoes" for driving ; )

Funny, every other review I've read complains about boot space and slams the 4wd for losing even more... Any owners here skip the spare tyre? Also what size tyres does it use?
