The all-new Dacia Duster will go on sale this fall. The model will offer an efficient range of powertrains and many more advantages for quite affordable money.

The British edition of Top Gear told more about the updated car. For example, fans of electric vehicles will be pleased with the fact that a hybrid version will be available in the lineup. Prices will start at £18,745 for the basic Essential equipment and reach £26,745 for the fully equipped Extreme version.

The Dacia Duster Hybrid 140 will be powered by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine and a pair of two electric motors that produce a total of 141 hp. Yes, it is not the fastest in the world, but the advantage of such an engine is that it is efficient. The model can run on electricity up to 80% of the time. This is also the only powertrain option that comes with an automatic transmission, while the rest are equipped with six-speed manuals.

An alternative in the mid-range segment is called the TCe 130, which is a turbocharged 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine complemented by a 48-volt mild hybrid motor that delivers 131 hp to a choice of two or four wheels. Or, if you want to go off the beaten path, you can opt for the 100 hp four-cylinder Bi-Fuel engine, which is claimed to deliver up to 1300 km on a single tank. For comparison, this is the distance from London to Milan. All-wheel drive models will offer up to five driving modes to adapt the vehicle to different conditions.

Duster also received a fresher and more impressive appearance. For example, it has thicker underbody and wheel arch protection, and the bumpers are made of a new material called Starkle. It is a partially recycled composite. Since it retains its natural color, traces of encounters with lampposts should be less noticeable.

Inside, the new Dacia Duster will use the new CMF-B platform, which will open up more space for various Fruit Shoot small items. Body roll has also been reduced and cornering stability improved. The ride in the updated car feels softer.

Standard features on the model include a 10.1-inch multimedia center and a seven-inch digital driver display with Apple CarPlay and Android equivalent installed as part of the basic tech package. Dacia has also gone a step further with its YouClip accessory mounting system, which has several additional places for GoPro and other gadgets.

The new Duster will go on sale in November. Due to its reasonable prices and good equipment, it is expected to be in great demand.
