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

    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
      @MarekDrivesENG  Місяць тому +3

      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
      @10mbc Місяць тому +1

      @@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.

In order to be able to sell cars as of July 2024, they either have to be equipped with all the new systems or they have to be registered before 7 July. I'm sure there's some stock left.

    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.

    • @MarekDrivesENG

      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.

    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.

    Pokial nejazdis po polnych cestach tak by som kupil Capture. Je krajsi, lepsie odhlucneny a cenovo rovnaky. Pri LPG verzii uz ma Duster3 ulozenu plynovu nadrz miesto rezervy. Otazka je ci. necitit plyn v kabine. U hybridnej verzii je bateria ulozena z vonku na podvozku. Ten 1,6 litrovy stvorvalec od Nissanu je urcite spolahlivy ale dat pri SUV bateriu z vonku mi pride zvlastne. Od NCAP ziskala v testoch 3 hviezdicky.Bocny naraz je pre pasazierov nebezpecny. Inak je Duster urcite dobrym vozidlom ale pri tej cene uz je z coho vyberat aj u inych znaciek. Napr Suzuki S-Cross

    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)

    • @MarekDrivesENG

    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.

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.
