6. Driving & Comfort
Driving & Comfort Assessment
City Driving
Manual gearbox requires more effort in heavy traffic, but offers good control. Turning radius of 5.2m is reasonable for urban maneuvers. Good ground clearance for everyday Indian road conditions.
Highway Performance
154 bhp provides confident highway cruising with adequate overtaking power. Turbo power kicks in nicely at mid-range, making highway merges confident.
Ride & Comfort
Torsion beam rear suspension handles most road imperfections adequately. Road and engine noise are noticeable, typical for this segment. 350L boot space is adequate for weekend trips.
7. Community Sentiment

Recent Owner Reviews

"Duster 2019-2022: Service network coverage is limited, making ownership outside metros challenging."
"Not Worth For Money: Very high-cost maintenance. Not worth money. Clutch plates. Worn. Out in just 2 years. Still facing problems"
"Renault Duster. A Great Driving Experience: I have been using Renault Duster for the past seven years. I'm in love with the style and performance. I love to buy it again for its pick up, speed, maintenance everything is perfect. The negative reviews can never downgrade a gem product. I love long journeys and even after 10 hrs. I don't feel tired, that's the level of comfort when I drive. I don't remember a single incident where someone successfully chased me. 😊I'll highly recommend buying it."
"Awesome Car: Awesome car, value for money. Best drive quality, best space for seating and boot. High performance of turbo CVT. Must buy it."
"Bad Experience: Bought a Duster in February 2020. Clutch and gearbox issues show with the vehicle. After six months. The issue is not yet solved. I had a very bad experience with Renault. Think before buying a Renault vehicle"
"Please Don't Buy Duster: Please don't buy Duster. I just sold the 5-year-old car for 4 Lakh. Problem with Injector. Replace 2 injectors for 60k. finally bought Suzuki SL6. Please don't buy Duster."
"Excellent: Superb and good features with full safety and price is also good good looking 🙂 mileage is also superb it pick up also is very good it good for your family for 6 members it is very comfortable and beautiful relaxable and with full of new features and build quality is awesome 😎 and is gives good mileage"
"Excellent For Off Road Driving: Excellent car for off-road driving and comfort for long root driving with big boot space big wheels."
"Duster CVT Review After 3 Years: Brought Duster CVT in Jan 2019. CVT SUV at a low price. No other vehicles can be purchased. Riding quality is suburb. No rear camera in even top trim. Is it a french machine? After 6 months got an AC failure. Thankfully repaired at no cost. CVT pick-up and performance are absolutely fantastic. Driven 900 km in 12 hrs continuous but no fatigue. Off-road performance best. Boot space is fantastic. Recently got waterlogged. Still waiting for delivery after repair for last 2 months. Parts price is too expensive. The estimate was 7 + lakh for a waterlogged Car. Thankfully brought to 4 Lakh after recheck. Although Car is good. Absolutely without any cabin technology. The repair cost is very high. And time-consuming too. But if you are looking for performance without tech. Be ready for high repair if anything goes wrong."
"Excellent Ride Quality Better Than All SUVs Available In India Now In 10-20 Lacs Range: Good car. Excellent ride quality even on the worst roads of our Maharashtra state. Ergonomics needs to be improved. Huge boot space. Overall if you are looking for ride quality and comfort, you can go for it. Can drive this car for long hours without gei tired compared to other so-called compact and subcompact SUVs in this segment. The price is very eye-catching."
"Bad Experience: Bought a Duster in February 2020. Clutch and gearbox issues show with the vehicle. After six months. The issue is not yet solved. I had a very bad experience with Renault. Think before buying a Renault vehicle"
"Not A Good Experience: It is a bad car. I have Duster RXZ petrol. Mileage 8-9kmpl, pathetic pick-up, above 90 makes a hell of a noise, not completed 1-year and it broke down 4 times, just horrible, had to escalate to 3rd level."
"Nice Mileage: Nice mileage with high maintenance cost.Performance is good and driving comfort is also good. An ideal car for long distance drive."
"Performance Is Good: Still in the segment of SUVs's the best SUV I experienced more comfort and driving performance and great features in this car than the competitors of this segment Creta, Seltos and Hector."
"Duster 2019-2022: Infotainment system feels underdeveloped. Frequent bugs and slow response times."
"I Have A Renault Duster Absolutely Never Faced Any Problem: I have had a Renault Duster RXL (O) since November 2012 and have clocked 105000 km in the last 8.5 years. My use is mostly on highways but has used it off roads on few occasions. Absolutely never faced any problem. I changed tires once at 60k km and battery twice. I changed the clutch plate, rear shock absorbers, and break shoes after one lakh km It is the roomiest and comfortable vehicle in the current lot. Instruments and features are just basic but adequate for me. Service cost is high if you compare it with Maruti or Hyundai. But then you have a European car. I also have a Renault Triber (March 2020) for city use."
"The Beautiful Car: This is one of the Beautiful car comes with comfort and style. Waiting for its new version as it looks stunning in the pictures and videos I have seen till now."
"Duster 2019-2022: Spare parts availability is a significant concern. Long wait times for essential components."
"It Is Best Suitable For Middle Class Long Family: It is best suitable for middle class family as it offers best milage and on road experience in this range also it has very attractive design which never look it to a budget segment car one drawback that I feel for this car is its service cost as it is too high and also it's service centers are not easily available in most of the cities and if you are living in rural area then it become very difficult for you to find its service center but overall it is best car for family under 10lakh Rs."
