6. Driving & Comfort

Driving & Comfort Assessment

Performance Score8.8/10
Comfort Score7.3/10

City Driving

The automatic transmission makes stop-and-go traffic easy to manage. Turning radius of 5.2m is reasonable for urban maneuvers. Excellent ground clearance handles speed breakers and potholes with ease.

Highway Performance

161 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. High ground clearance gives confidence over rough patches and unpaved roads. Cabin noise is well-controlled at city speeds; some wind noise creeps in on highways. Generous 518L boot space makes it practical for long trips.

"Smooth Ride with Great Comfort & Mileage: I purchased this car recently, and my overall experience has been very good. The buying process was smooth, and the dealership staff was helpful. Driving experience is shandar—the car feels stable on highways and easy to handle in city traffic. The looks are modern and attractive, which always gets attention. Performance is decent with good pickup and mileage, making it budget-friendly for daily use. Servicing cost is also reasonable, and maintenance is not too heavy."

"Good Average With Unique Crusher: I have used this car, but that was it's old model, but the company has launched, its advance version. So as i'm thinking it will more refined and more comfortable. If you are planning for crusher driving with minimum budget, then go for this car. Really good for upper middle class family. Ground clearance is also good."

"Duster 2026: The Comeback That Means Business”: The new Duster looks sharper and more muscular than ever. The front fascia is dominated by a chunky grille, sleek Y-shaped LED DRLs, and a more upright stance that screams toughness. Squared wheel arches and higher ground clearance enhance its SUV credentials. Unlike the older model, which leaned heavily on simplicity, this version adds a modern flair without losing its rugged charm. It finally looks as capable as it feels."

I hope renault made a full off road style car again like bolero classic look in terms of design proper suv."

"Cool Car with Great Features: Buying the car was a smooth and satisfying experience. The dealership staff was helpful and clearly explained all the features. The delivery process felt well-organised. From the first drive, the car impressed me with its smooth handling. The steering is responsive, and the suspension manages both city roads and highways comfortably, making long drives enjoyable. In terms of looks, the design is modern and striking, with a strong road presence that often attracts attention. Performance-wise, the engine feels powerful yet efficient, providing a good balance of speed and fuel economy. Acceleration is smooth, and overtaking on highways is easy. The braking system is dependable and boosts my confidence while driving. Servicing has been trouble-free so far. The service centres are easy to reach, and the staff are professional and clear about costs and the work done. Maintenance is reasonable compared to others in the segment, with no major issues so far. Overall, the car offers a great mix of style, comfort, and performance. It makes a practical and enjoyable choice for both daily use and long trips."

"The All-New Renault Duster is Finally Here: Guys, the New Renault Duster has finally launched in India and from the launch event pics, specs, and everything they showed, I’m already pretty hyped! It’s clearly bigger, sharper, loaded with a proper big touchscreen, comfy seats, and those new engines that promise way better mileage than the old one. I haven’t got behind the wheel yet (still waiting for my test drive slot), but it looks like Renault finally fixed everything we complained about while keeping that same rugged, no-nonsense soul we loved. If you’re hunting for a proper SUV under 15 lakhs that can handle Indian roads, this one might actually deliver."

"Decent Overall Car: Duster will find it a little tough to compete in the already busy segment and with the 2 new competitors in the Sierra and Seltos just being launched it has its task cut out. The car looks good, seems a bit smaller in terms of dimensions compared to the other 2, perfomance and mileage should be good."

"Best Car In This Segment: Comfortable and value for money come with safety rating and pickup is go good. When you press acceleration car instant pick up capture the best speed instantly around 20-25 km/l depending on driving 185mm high ground clearance but on highways you feel like low or unpowered engine handling is not good on highways."
