Customer reviews for Dacia Duster

Our first hybrid car and we love the size of it which is similar to our last Renault Kajar.

Slightly disappointed that it doesn't use more electric than was hoped for. But getting 53 mpg out of it around our hilly area.

What is annoying is having to switch off the default driver assistance AND the cruise controls EVERY time we start the car! Making sure we use our driver preferences every time!

We do not like the automatic lights and again find it difficult to opt out of default which is to be always on automatic. Dipping lights is risky on auto and when slowing down round our rural area, the lights dip when we would have chosen to keep full beam on like driving round rural bends.

Had to turn off the hands free locking system as it continually locked when we moved 4 feet away - very annoying whilst loading on the drive and had to keep unlocking it! Now switched off its fine.

We really liked the Kajar and feel a little disappointed with this one.

Having said our grievances, we are growing to like it and it's power and acceleration, comfort and space.

Will probably change it in a couple of years and go back to my favourite Renault - of which I have had many. But good to be hybrid and doing our 'bit for the environment'. Maybe look at a 'plug in hybrid' next time. Certainly can't do with electric.in our rural area and no charge points.

For the price point the Dacia duster is a good car unfortunately I had issues with the entertainment system going off while using the maps and radio through my phone (Android)

The radio or Spotify starts to crackle and lost sound then it switches itself off and back on again which is inconvenient when using the satellite navigation

So if this could be rectified maybe a simple update that would be very helpful

I love the new Duster. It is easy to drive, the all round cameras make it easy to park and it looks great. The facelift gives the car a chunky, rugged look, and the interior feels much better. The boot is bigger too. I can get everything that I need to in it. I couldn't have lived with the old duster. I am proud of owning the new one.

I would prefer to have Brake & Hold / Auto HOLD as with Mercedes. I cannot find any way to suitably set the driver's seat so that I can sit up high and easily slide in between the steering wheel and seat. It is not sufficiently adjustable! Otherwise I'm happy enough with the car at present, having done only 500 miles.

Everyone should drive a dacia duster hybrid great to drive it’s my first hybrid and my first automatic I could drive it all day I drove it down to north Ayrshire from Aberdeen and back twice now and I can’t wait to go down again no complaints i always drove a ford and my Dacia is a better drive,Richard from Aberdeen .

For the price, you get a lot for your money. The quality continues to improve, the finish and the features are better than ever and I find it both comfortable and reasonably economic.

A good all round car with large boot space and plenty of room for passengers to travel in comfort

this car is great but it will try to steer for you there are some things that could be switched of that I don't know how because your printed manual does not tell me I don't do scan this or that on my phone so I cannot access that so a proper printed should be an option

The Duster has an economical hybrid engine. It drives well & is comfortable.

As a pensioner, I havs found the computer challenging. The rear seat belts are not easy to use as the link in the seat is easily pushed down so far it becomes inaccessible.

I enjoy driving the car and my dogs travel well in the back. It has good ground clearance essential for the places I travel to. I am pleased with the vehicle and cannot think of any improvements I would wish for.

Brilliant car, ticks all the boxes! Brilliant value for money.

I’ve recommended the car to someone and they ended up buying a brand new extreme version like mine. We are very impressed.
