Customer reviews for Dacia DusterDacia Duster according to those who use it on a daily basis

I have owned, in turn, a 2019 Dacia Duster Prestige and then a 2022 Dacia Duster Prestige . Both excellent cars and great to drive. I was so pleased with the performance of these Dacia cars, I purchased a brand new Dacia Duster Extreme on 31st December 2024 and I'm really very pleased with this updated model. The styling and extra features are superb and I would not hesitate to recommend the Dacia Duster Extreme model to anybody considering buying a new car. Exceptional styling and value!.

Very comfortable, good mpg, spacious, practical, good handling for type of car

Downside, for first 500 miles some of the features didn't work e.g Lane assist and blind spot monitoring, then suddenly turned on but haphazard when they work ( not too fussed about lane assist as more annoying than useful). Front camera sometimes doesn't work, radio sometimes doesn't turn on, auto selector sometimes doesn't work ( switching off/on the car seems to sort this for now)

I love the whole car. I bought the Duster 1.2 TCe 130 Extreme 5dr 4X4 Petrol Estate, in Black with a spare wheel. Delivery from ordering took 3 months, but it was the first batch of orders in the UK, and it still came a month early. We have 2 other dusters in the family, 1st and 2nd gen, but this one is leaps and bounds superior to the others. I do disable some of the driving aids, lane assist etc... but all in all I am very pleased with mine.

I have a Duster 4x4 Expression.

surprisingly good performance from a 1.2 L engine, yet very economical,

comfortable driving position,

Cruise control as standard,

bluetooth phone connection,

controls well laid out,

Excellent ground clearance and off-road capability,

excellent value for money.

Could it be improved? - The rear door handles, they're a bit awkward especially in a strong wind, I'd prefer conventional ones.

Built quality not great, have rattling noise coming from dash board, already took it back to main dealer, still the same, taking it back again soon.

I have hybrid, needs one more gear to run smoothly, sometimes screaming with rev.

How ever it is very efficient on fuel, I have managed 520 miles on one fill up, still had 50 miles worth of petrol left in the tank.

Please, with it so far, But I have a problem with the camera which keeps going off. Then, after a few days, it comes back on again and then goes off again. It is currently at the dealers so they can have a look at it. I hear a few have had to have them Recalibrated, but I’d rather it was working properly from the start. Everything else seems to be fine

Love the new design and green colour. The new digital system is also great - really comprehensive! Lane assist is awful! Cup holders in the front are under the box so a bit inaccessible. Cup holders in the back was nice on the old version but have now disappeared. The little shelf on the passenger side had gone too and was helpful.

New styling excellent.

Ride very much improved.

The car has been designed extremely well.

The self charge hybrid is great fun to drive with a superb range.

Value for money nothing can touch it.

Looking forward to seeing the new range as it develops. Ready for a new one in 3 years so I expect they will improve even more.

my hybrid Dacia Duster is quite simply a marvellous car. it is: responsive, comfortable and a complete pleasure to drive. what could be improved? the ‘my Dacia’ app. it would be good if the app could show ‘miles’ & not ‘km’. also, how about incorporating a remote heating function for those cold frosty winter mornings.

All very good except for the Bluetooth in-car microphone which is almost useless. I have to use my phone's microphone for call recipients to hear me clearly. This is a fault many owners have experienced according to internet postings. Design and service fix needed. Very annoying!
