Renault Duster

“Duster is the third Renault reference model in Russia,” the deputy said at a car presentation. General Director of the French company in the Russian Federation Denis Levot. The statement can be interpreted as follows: the manufacturer expects that in our country, the car will certainly enjoy the active attention of buyers. There are reasons for this. “Dusters”, produced for several years in Romania under the Dacia brand, have become a very popular product in Europe - this is firstly. And secondly, the success of sales determines the price / quality ratio. Advanced in technical equipment, the car is very moderate - from 449 thousand rubles. for basic equipment.
And here’s what’s valuable: the components of the “Russian” Duster are adapted to the specifics of our road, climatic and operational conditions:
- taking into account the specifics, the injection system settings have been changed;
- units without risk of failure perceive all technical fluids that are in use on the territory of the Russian Federation;
- devices are “hardened” and they will not fail at low temperatures;
- battery - high capacity: 70 Ah;
- increased power generator;
- expanded windshield cleaning area;
- up to 5 l the volume of the tank under the washer fluid;
- programmed, again in connection with the non-European climate, "pro-Russian" interior heating modes;
- steel sheets of protection of not only the crankcase, but also hoses will be installed on the car.

The crossover has a slightly modified design, in comparison with the Romanian “namesake”. The front grille looks more representative (if the reader wants to compare one and the other, see here).

The price of most crossovers in our market starts from about 700 thousand rubles. At the presentation, they said that the developers of the model deliberately looked for solutions that made it possible to reduce the cost of the car, but without compromising on consumer properties. The task is brilliant. Say, the plastic in the cabin is not at all luxurious, but no one will say that it is bad. It’s even nothing!.. In the interior, perhaps the center console is somewhat overloaded with system regulators (these are the most strict connoisseurs noticed in the Romanian version). But alteration of the console would drag the price of a car to a rise in price. The price of most crossovers in our market starts from about 700 thousand rubles.

Another economical version of the tailgate. Her canvas does not roll inward, as in almost all modern station wagons and crossovers, it will have to be folded forward, and the canvas sags. This is still wherever it went. The other is completely unsuitable: there are no handle holes for gripping the curtains with brushes. Have to squeeze it with your thumb and forefinger. Inconvenient and Marco. Another economical version of the tailgate.

A peculiarity of the body that catches your eye is the unusually large-scale gas tank door. This is not a designer blunder. The company's engineers explained that they had done so that in the recess behind the door there was enough space next to the "gas" neck to position the outlet of the gas cylinder’s gas pipe. In case the owner wants to mount a gas installation. A peculiarity of the body that catches your eye is the unusually large-scale gas tank door. This is not a designer blunder.

Duster with front-wheel drive is equipped with gasoline engines - 1.6 liters with a 5-speed manual gearbox or 2 liters with an "automatic". All-wheel drive versions will receive the same gasoline engines, but with a 6-speed manual gearbox (first gear is very short: 5.79 km / h at 1000 rpm), as well as a 1.5-liter diesel engine. However, diesel, explained Denis Levot, will appear only in 2013. And the first crossovers will arrive at car dealerships in late January - early February 2012. Orders for them are accepted from the second half of December this year.
With the start of assembly at Avtoframos, Duster will have the largest share in Renault's total production in Moscow (Megane, Fluence, Logan, Sandero and Sandero Stepway are still being assembled at the enterprise). It is important to note that Renaults produced in the Russian Federation, including Duster, have reached a high degree of localization - about 50%, by the end of 2013 this figure should increase to 74%.
