Dacia Duster 2015




In the first maybe  most people will have heard of before, but DACIA is certainly setting the mainstream motoring world by storm with the Duster.
Not only is it practical, spacious inside and affordable to run, but it’s also, by some margin, the cheapest car in this class.
However, you may want to look elsewhere if you prioritise a plush cabin or plenty of creature comforts in a family-orientated crossover.
In addition  the Duster’s cabin is ok, don’t go thinking it’ll be a tactile, soft-touch galore fest in the Duster. It’s a cheap car, and as such the interior is all crafted out of hard plastics, and it’s not exactly what you’d call ‘stylish’.

GENERALLY We’re not going to say the Dacia Duster is the greatest thing since sliced bread, because it isn’t. It’s a cheap car, and as such isn’t exactly the plushest car you’ll ever come across, nor is it the most relaxing or engaging car to drive.
Then again, you’ll have to fork out many more thousands of pounds if you want a new car that offers the same amount of space and practicality as the Duster, and by quite a few counts, the Dacia isn’t as bad as its ‘How low can you go?’ image suggests. In fact, it’s actually quite good overall.
instead  you really need to have a new car of this size that comes with better build quality and more kit as standard, we reckon the Duster is worth a close look if you’re searching for something in this sector of the market or at this price range. It’s not perfect, but if you’re looking for space and practicality on a budget, the new Dacia could be the car for you.
