New Duster details revealed

Dacia tweaked its Duster range and added two brand new trim levels to the line-up.

The new Air trim is priced from £10,995 and features air conditioning, DAB radio, Bluetooth connectivity, height-adjustable driver's seat, 16-inch wheels, body-coloured front and rear bumpers, electric front windows, USB and aux connection and front fog lights as standard, while the new Nav+ trim adds MediaNav Evolution (a 7-inch touchscreen multimedia system with satellite navigation), rear-parking sensors plus camera,16-inch 'Tyrol' alloy wheels, electric rear windows, heated and electrically-adjustable door mirrors, on-board computer, leather steering wheel and ’Graphite’ cloth upholstery. The Nav+ model starts at £13,095.

The already available Access and Air versions of the Duster are available with the 1.6 SCe 115 engine, and the Nav+ is available with either the TCe 125 engine or the 1.5-litre dCi 110 engine. An automatic six-speed EDC (Efficient Dual Clutch) transmission is available on Nav+ with 1.5 dCi 110 turbodiesel engine, which returns fuel economy of 62.8mpg, and is priced at £15,495 OTR. No matter which trim level you choose, all can be specced with either front- or four-wheel drive.

Deliveries for the new Duster begin in April, but if you want to bag yourself one of the current models before then, Dacia has a scrappage deal going on until the end of March – perfect timing.

Until the end of March, the Duster Lauréate dCi 110, in either two- or four-wheel-drive trim, will receive an extra £500 and £1,000 respectively on top of their existing scrappage scheme offers, which is a £1,500 allowance for two-wheel-drive models, and £2,000 for four-wheel-drive models. After the offer, the Duster Lauréate dCi 110 4x2 costs from £12,995 while the 4x4 variant is priced from £14,495.

In addition to that, between 12-18 March 2018, the Duster Lauréate dCi 110 will also be available with up to £2,200 deposit contribution when purchased on a three-year 4.9 percent Dacia Dimensions PCP offer.
