Renault Duster 1.0 TCe 100 Review Highlights Design and Engine PerformancePreviousNext

The Renault Duster 1.0 TCe 100 variant offers a rugged design similar to higher trims, with a spacious cabin but fewer premium features. Its 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine delivers 100 hp with linear power and manageable noise levels, suitable for city and highway driving. While the Eco mode may cause turbo lag, the Normal mode provides better performance. The Duster maintains its tough styling and aims to attract buyers seeking a driver-focused SUV at an entry-to-mid level price point.
