The 15 dci diesel Duster is the one to go for with excellent torque, 65mpg,650 mile range and best resale values !

[@whatcarwhattime]

Guess thats a real workhorse. Thanks for watching!

[@mikaelhirard320]

The 13 tce has the same torque than dci, and before the dci in rpm (260nm at 2000 rpm for the dci, and 250nm for the tce at 1700 rpm). And the tce is so much powerfull than the dci. Sorry for my bad english, I'm french.

[@whatcarwhattime]

@@mikaelhirard320 It's strong enough for everyones needs, that's good. Thanks for watching 🌞

[@jsg1831]

¿Es posible comprarlo con un motor 1.7 dci de 150 CV para tirar de una caravana? Gracias, un saludo.

[@whatcarwhattime]

@@jsg1831 Hello, you can buy the Blue dCi 115 Blue dCi 115 4x4, 1,5 l both. You can toe 1200 kg or 1500 kg. Thanks for watching! 🙂

[@gt3rsgt2rs30]

Sono possessore di una Duster uguale sono molto soddisfatto essenziale e funzionale semplice da guidare molto intuitiva e va quasi ovunque perché è una 4x2 ma assicuro che vado in posti con condizioni d'asfalto proibitive x tutte tranne le 4x4 😊 grande Renault/ dacia Duster 😉👍

[@annelieriveralarsson5802]

Beautiful surroundings, nice shots and a great review as always. Well done!

[@whatcarwhattime]

Thanks!

[@oldgriff8559]

We have this Duster and am more than happy with it..

[@whatcarwhattime]

Congratulations, its really good. Thanks for watching!

[@chittys]

excellent review,apart from the colour (i am getting urban grey)have decided to buy one,well done very informative review

[@whatcarwhattime]

So happy to hear that you like the review. Thank you and congratulations to yours, urban grey is a terrific color on the Duster. Thanks for watching!

[@SpiralMoss]

Im thinking of buying a new one keep it for 5 years and change again after 5 Into fishing, hiking and surfing. Single man just looking for simplicity and something new that's affordable

[@whatcarwhattime]

This one has just the type of cool attitude you seem to have. Love it. Yes, buy a demo-driven or a slightly used one. Or just a new one. It will suit your needa perfectly. But the 4x4 version would be better. Thanks for watching 🙏

[@BlackhawkWoTConsole]

Very good review. Although i would not call it a car for people that are not interested in cars anymore. I am currently waiting on my extreme edition TCE 130 because I really love the design of the duster. And honestly if you see how expensive cars have become lately and how little they have improved against the Duster people need to be mad buying something else. Almost every smaller SUV costs 35k to 45k at the moment. And i test driven multiple of those and i can not say they are any better then the duster that cost’s only half of that! Car company’s really are just asking whatever they want for their cars without looking if they are still worth it anymore it seems.

[@whatcarwhattime]

Thank you so much, and you are very correct! Its a great car, also the new Jogger. What I mean about people not very interested in cars are that most cars that are low budget mostly has a bigger customer base off buyers that dont mind that much and more lean towards the low price . But I think Dacias are cool and Im about to get myself a new car soon and I certainly consider one of these. Thanks for your input and for watching 🙏🙏

[@BlackhawkWoTConsole]

​@@whatcarwhattime Thank you for reacting and making what you meant more clear for me. And i agree with you on that aswel then! Normally my Duster will arrive next week. I haven’t been looking forward to driving a car as much since my old toyota celica that some rich girl took away by driving here lexus 70km/h straight in my rear end while waiting on a crossroad. So i am super excited! During the test drive with a similar duster but a journey spec i was really surprised and how smooth the ride was on the beaten up roads around my location. And also how quick it felt since I wasn’t really expecting anything in that field. But it felt great and not slow at all. The only thing i wish it did not have was the keyless entry cards instead off some good old car keys. Not that i think a duster is on a thiefs most wanted list but still. Kinda feels a bit to technological for someone with a dinosaur mind like me..😅

[@whatcarwhattime]

@@BlackhawkWoTConsole Thanks for sharing interesting and exciting stories. My father had all Celicas, always bought every new model that came out. I took my driving license when we still had the Celica T200. Great car with nice control, drove it hard day and night for so many years. Never one single fault with thst car. Incredible. Have fun with your Duster, I really got a little extra taste for it now. Might check one out to buy as well ☺️💪

[@robertcatterall6514]

I love the looks of the Dacia Duster but the handles soon break in the winter when it’s Frozen 👍👍

[@whatcarwhattime]

Yeah, it sure has its own style and personality which also like a lot. I see, I was a little sceptical towards the feel of the handles. But overall, the car feels very solid for what you get. Thanks for watching.

[@watannen]

Dacia's home country may not be Sweden, but they still get -20 or even -30 in the mountains every 2-3 years. no handle ever broke. i have a clio 2. handles are similar but look like toys by comparison. 19 years in, they feel the same on both sides. no play, no rattle and identical feel. so if this little shit is fine, i would not worry on the Duster. BUT. the problem with this type of handle is that you cannot pull very hard on it with just your fingers. Not hard enough to break it. not hard enough to open a door that is frozen shut not hard enough to break in to a crashed car to assist the occupants. that is why all modern cars (dacia included) are replacing these with normal "grab through" handles.

[@robertcatterall6514]

@@watannen thank you for your comment… Very much appreciated 👍👍

[@whatcarwhattime]

@@watannen Well that sounds comforting. The initial feel is a bit different but only time can tell, as you proved. Thank you very much for that information and thanks for watching.

[@charlestaylor8566]

Pour hot water on them….simples 😊

[@leeallen8840]

In the UK versions, the air vents on the dashboard are different. They are round and in a row of 3. Yours car has straight oval air vents. Apart from that, it’s the same car.

[@whatcarwhattime]

Interesting. But I like the ones in this one. Thanks for watching 🙏

[@johnignell4128]

We got a dacia duster extreme and like it werry much

[@Just_2_Wheelz]

Thanks for your review! What about the EDC? Is it smooth enough or would you rather go for the manual version?

[@whatcarwhattime]

Its a very good gearbox, smooth and works well with the car. But if you want 4x4 then you need to get the manual. And the 4x4 elevates this car. Thanks for watching 🙏

[@Just_2_Wheelz]

@@whatcarwhattime thnx! I was seriously considering the 4x4 but 90% of my driving happens in boring dense city and autobahn traffic. The EDC fits just better within this use-case.

[@whatcarwhattime]

@@Just_2_Wheelz then go for the FWD with the EDC, you will be plenty satisfied with that. Its a little lighter on its feet and feels nippier, especially if you consider the 150 hp-engine. Just a great car with a very special and unpretentious attitude. And that is importan today.

[@Just_2_Wheelz]

@@whatcarwhattime This is the answer I was looking for :) Thanks again!

[@nkonac]

How come the air-con vents are not round in this? What model/version is this?

[@whatcarwhattime]

This was the 2023 model, the latest facelifted one. So they are not round anymore. Think they look nice. Thanks for watching 🙏

[@nkonac]

Thanks for your reply. Maybe it’s a regional difference. In the UK, I cannot find these version air con vents in any facelifted 2023 model. Even with the new badge logo, vents are all circular. Such a shame as the rectangular version is so much nicer 😢

[@whatcarwhattime]

@@nkonac Oh, thats a pity. Yes, these rectangular looks really neat 🙂

What is the difference between the TCe 150 and the TCe 150 EDC?

The EDC is the automatic double clutch gearbox. Thanks for watching!

4 wheels, 2 WD. Thanks for watching 🙏

The 4x4 is what makes the Duster "adventurous". Thanks for watching.

Stop kidding yourselves about the leg room in the back seats

Its allright depending on who sits there. My 175 centimeters got in there ok. Thanks for watching 🙏

[@TheNemessis11]

That is not cheap, that's overpriced just like most cars today.

Yes, I can, I sit hunched, no joke.

[@BjarnePincett]

I have a Duster 2022 and i am 200cm with 120+kg and i have no problem fitting behind the wheel and still a couple of cm to the roof without crouching.

[@whatcarwhattime]

@@BjarnePincett That's perfect! Thanks for watching

[@valivalentin8963]

@@BjarnePincett 182 vs 200 cm At 182 cm, I can't fit behind the wheel, I still have a maximum 3 cm until ceiling. If I bend down to better see a stone or the traffic in front, I hit my head on a threshold near the mirror. I'm sure you pushed your head into the ceiling and now you have a dome like the tank, or you're sitting hunched over.
