The long-awaited budget crossover Dacia Duster 3rd generation from Renault has shown poor results in Euro NCAP crash tests. This is a problem for those who want to buy a modern safe car.

The car was tested in the Euro NCAP tests. The 2024 Dacia Duster received a rating of 3 stars. The safety of adult passengers was rated at 70%, children - 84%. Pedestrians - 60%, and the work of electronic assistants was evaluated at 57%.

The result is very mediocre. But frankly speaking, cars of the budget segment have never been characterized by the maximum level of safety. This is a compromise, in exchange for which buyers get savings when buying.

The equipment of Dacia Duster 3rd generation turned out to be decent: digital dashboard, 10-inch touchscreen multimedia system with navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, cruise control, parktronic, 6 airbags, keyless entry, climate control, rearview camera, wireless charging for smartphone, audio system with 6 speakers.

Engines of the 2024 Duster:

  • 1L (100 hp) gasoline turbo;
  • gasoline turbo 1.2 liter (hybrid, 130 hp);
  • gasoline turbo 1.6 liter (hybrid, 140 hp).

The price of Dacia Duster 2024 - from 19 290 euros.
