Expert opinion and recommendation

The Renault Duster 85 PS Diesel is a compelling choice in the compact SUV segment in India, offering a blend of performance, comfort, and practicality. The vehicle boasts a smooth and powerful engine, with minimal turbo lag, making it a joy to drive both in city conditions and on highways. The suspension is well-tuned, providing a comfortable ride even over rough terrain, and the ground clearance is more than adequate to handle Indian road conditions. While there are some minor drawbacks such as wind noise at higher speeds and average speaker quality, the overall package is hard to ignore. The spacious interior, excellent visibility, and generous boot space add to its appeal. However, potential buyers should be aware of the occasional issues with rattling doors and the need for prompt service to address these problems.

The upcoming Renault Duster will not have a diesel engine option, a significant departure from its predecessors. Instead, it will be available with various petrol engine options, including a 1.3-litre turbo-petrol and a 1.6-litre strong hybrid petrol. This change reflects the industrys move towards more environmentally friendly options. I believe this could be a smart move given the current market trends.

The Renault Duster RxE 85 PS Diesel, a mid-variant in the Duster lineup, is priced at an on-road price of Rs 10.70 lakh in Delhi. This variant comes with features like ABS with EBD, driver and passenger airbags, and rear parking sensors. Its a solid choice for those looking for a reliable diesel SUV. I think the pricing is competitive, but the lack of advanced features might be a drawback.
October 16, 2023
The current Renault Duster RxE 85 PS Diesel comes equipped with basic safety features such as ABS with EBD, driver and passenger airbags, and rear parking sensors. While these are essential, the new-gen Duster will offer more advanced safety features like six airbags and ADAS. Its clear that safety standards are evolving rapidly. I think the new safety features will be a major selling point for the new Duster.
August 20, 2023
Renault has stopped producing the current generation of the Duster, marking the end of an era for this popular SUV. The decision comes as the company prepares to launch the new-gen Duster, which is expected to hit the Indian market by October 2025. This move signifies a significant shift towards newer technology and design. I think this is a bold step, but its necessary to stay competitive in the market.
June 4, 2023
The Renault Duster RxE 85 PS Diesel is powered by a 1.5 dCi diesel engine, producing 83 horsepower and 200 Nm of torque. It is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and has a front-wheel drive configuration. This setup provides decent performance and fuel efficiency. I believe the engine has been reliable, but its time for an upgrade.
