Find your perfect Duster

In mid-spec Expression trim with the TCe 130 mild-hybrid petrol engine, the Dacia Duster represents excellent value for money. True, there are rivals that are sharper to drive and plusher inside, but the Duster makes up for that in comfort, boot space, price and even off-road ability.

The entry-level trim is near-enough devoid of luxuries and is aimed at people after a workhorse and nothing more. You get rear parking sensors, electric front windows and cruise control, but that’s about the extent of it.

The bi-fuel engine is not that punchy but can run on LPG or petrol, with a tank for each, so it has a long range and the potential for big fuel savings. It's only available with Essential trim.
