Renault Duster [2020-2022] User Reviews

I am one of the first few owners of the Renault Duster turbo 1.3 RXZ 2020 model. I got the Duster on 30th September 2020 and have driven 4000 km since then. Across 3 different states. The driving experience was very different, I would like to share the experience with you.  Renault duster turbo has got phenomenal ride experience along with very punchy engine which never makes you feel left out.  I took it on few bumpy terrains, highways, expressways and have also driven it within city limits, with a collective return of 13.2km/ltr. The car has got capabilities to do 0-100 under 10secs and has topped 190kms/hr as tested by me.  The engine revs all the way till 6000rpm without any stress. The built dynamics induces a lot of confidence in the corners and on high speed. I can assure you nothing till the segment of 25 lakhs cars can provide you with the ride quality, what Duster Turbo does. On the downside, is its brakes, two drum setup at the back lacks initial bite, which at times. creates panic during emergency braking. Another fall back is poor ergonomics and lack of practicality in the placement of interior elements. The interior itself looks ages old as compared to the other cars in the segment. Lack of all-wheel drive takes away the charm Duster had when it created this segment.
