Renault has prepared a small surprise - the developers will introduce a diesel turbo engine. The power of the unit will be 130 Horse power, and it will be available in automatic and manual transmissions.
More complete information O technical specifications The manufacturing company has not yet provided the second generation of the Duster, but, judging by the modest statements of the creators, there are no cardinal innovations in the plans.
Good news for future buyers - the developers promised to improve new Renault Duster 2017 and expand equipment basic configuration new equipment, without increasing the cost, so that the car remains in the budget segment.
External design
As for the dimensions of the SUV, the changes will only affect the length. According to available information, the designers will lengthen the Duster by about 150 mm. Other parameters will remain the same:
Width - 1822 mm;
height - 1625 mm;
wheelbase - 2673 mm;
ground clearance - 210 mm.
Pirated photos of Renault Duster 2017 have already been posted on the network, judging by which, the novelty will simultaneously resemble the previous generation of Duster and the Oroch model. back The designers left the car practically unchanged, paying more attention to the front.
The 2017 Duster will look more aggressive with sharp punching angles, as well as a massive air intake and metallic grille design features. front and rear bumpers And wheel arches received a border in the form of a strip of black plastic.
The designers have significantly modified the optics, giving it a sophisticated and more soft look. Unfortunately for many motorists, the headlights are not equipped with LEDs in order to keep the cost of the car in the budget segment.
Interior
The increase in the length of the Duster, which is mentioned above, is not accidental - the engineers plan to add a third row of seats. Thus, the SUV will become a 7-seater. However, this option will depend on the selected configuration and will affect the final cost.

When choosing a configuration with a third row of seats, the car will have a smaller luggage compartment.
Start of sales of new items from Renault
New Duster will appear in European automotive market in the middle of 2017. Around the same time, Renault Duster 2017 sales will start in Russia.
According to preliminary data, in the basic configuration, the price of Renault Duster 2017 will be no more than 12 thousand euros, which, translated into rubles at the current exchange rate, is about 1 million. The assembly of the car was entrusted to Togliatti AvtoVAZ and Moscow AZLK.
Presenting on Frankfurt Motor Show new Duster crossover under the Dacia brand, representatives of the Renault concern focused on consumer qualities. Indeed, in order to outwardly distinguish a second-generation car from the previous one, they need to be placed side by side. But the design was preserved in principle in the company: Duster, which sold over a million copies in seven years, is recognizable among buyers and loved by them.
The second generation SUV, according to the company's promises, will remain available. Which is not surprising: the machine is built on the same B0 platform and has not changed much in size. The exact data has not yet been named: it is known that the length of the new Duster is approximately 4.3 m (4315 mm for the first generation SUV), the width is 1.8 m (against 1822 mm). The ground clearance (210 mm) has not changed either. And the volume of the trunk “under the shelf” even decreased: 445 liters for front-wheel drive versions (against 475 liters for the current Duster) and 376 liters for all-wheel drive versions (now - 408 liters).
The European range of powertrains will also remain the same: this gasoline engines 1.6 SCe (115 hp) and 1.2 TCe (125 hp), the former can also be adapted to run on liquefied gas, as well as 1.5 dCi diesels with a power of 90 or 110 hp. The choice is a manual gearbox or preselective "robot" EDC, front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.
But in the cabin - a real revolution! Just imagine: the steering wheel of the new Duster, borrowed from, is adjustable not only in terms of tilt, but also in reach - by 50 mm! The interior upholstery and dashboard with the multimedia system screen slightly turned towards the driver and moved upstairs. Seats with a new frame and denser filler will offer a 20 mm longer cushion and adjustable head restraints. And the equipment of the top versions will include climate control, cameras never seen before for the Duster. all-round view, keyless entry, engine start button, driver's seat lumbar adjustment and blind spot monitoring.
However, Dusters with " full mincemeat” will certainly be noticeably more expensive than the current ones. How much? The company has not yet announced prices: sales of second-generation Dacia Duster crossovers will begin in Europe and Africa in the coming winter. We'll have to wait longer. Renault version Duster for Russia and South America will appear no earlier than 2019. External differences little is expected from the European Duster, but the range of engines and gearboxes will noticeably change. It is worth expecting other improvements in terms of technology. However, the need to equip the Russian Duster with new options is long overdue.
Budget crossover Renault Duster 2017 Even before its appearance in Russia, it aroused unprecedented interest. First cheap foreign SUV localized in our country went on sale in early 2012. The queue for the model lined up for several months. The excitement was explained affordable price and virtually no competition. Tim was taken advantage of by dealers who hung a huge amount of “special stages” on the car, which made the car significantly more expensive than factory prices, but this did not stop buyers.
In 2017, the situation for Renault Duster changed a bit, both “related” competitors appeared, in the form of Nissan Terrano or Renault Kaptur, and the Korean Hyundai Creta. Korean at a comparable cost was the first serious competitor. But the answer from the Renault concern can be expected in soon in the form of a new generation of Duster 2, which will help restore lost ground.
Exterior Duster in 2015 on Russian market survived the restyling. Designers have drawn new grille radiator, bumper, optics. The car was refreshed a little, but there were no major changes. As a basis, Renault engineers used the “B0″ platform, which was considerably enlarged in size. It's hard to believe, but it was created on the same platform budget sedan Renault Logan. 20 cm ground clearance, short overhangs ideal for road trips light Russian off-road, which can sometimes form even in the center big city. Photos appearance See the current version of Duster below.

Salon Duster made as simple as possible, all around hard plastic, not very comfortable seats. Before restyling, the owners complained about a rather strange mechanism for adjusting the height of the driver's seat, the strange location of the signal, power window switches and other imperfections. When restyling everything problem areas have been corrected. IN expensive trim levels appeared in the center console multimedia system with navigation. But interior materials are still the most budgetary, although in our conditions it can be called practicality. Interior photos are attached.

The trunk of the crossover is quite sufficient for a model of this class. True, there is one interesting feature. The Duster with front-wheel drive has a volume luggage compartment more than its all-wheel drive counterpart, due to the lower floor position.

Four-wheel drive can be found with all three types of motors. It would be more correct to say front-wheel drive is available only with a 1.6 liter engine.
