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.

Our recommended trim gets 17in alloy wheels, along with a touchscreen infotainment system, a digital driver's display and a rear-view camera. You’ll also need to go for this trim if you want our recommended engine, the TCe 130.

In the main, this regular hybrid is smoother and quieter than the TCe 130, but not really efficient enough to justify the extra cost.
