रेनो डस्टर [2016-2019] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

I am using duster car from year 2013. i am facing lots of quality issues regarding my car. Some of the serious issues are as mention below:- 1) ac direction knobe- they have changed it almost 10 times but still the quality is very bad. Last time they changed it in 3days n when they return my car i asked their person to rotate the knob. But they were unable to rotate n broken something from inside that knobe. the condition is very frustrating for me. 2)water jet for wiper- Not working properly even after lots of complaint. 3) door lock- door lock from driver end is not working properly even after lots of complaints. 4)sterio- sterio is not working properly even after lots of complaint. 5)gear problem- from the time of purchase i have problem regarding the gear (the 1st gear struct any time from the 15 day of purchase). they jst told me they have oiled the gear n this will not repeat again everytime. Now the condition is worst. Vikas gupta 9250XXXXXX

HR51XXXXXX- DUSTER

Exterior

Best looking car in its segment. Looks perfect from any angle. Especially flared wheel arches. I have pearl white colour car and the model is 85 PS RxL Plus with two airbags & ABS. Even the wheels are not alloy wheels but the wheel rim design is also looks good. Three spoke front grill with renault LOGO looks excellent.

I have bought my car from Dharti Renault, jamnagar. If you want to feel the concept of customer delightness, visit Dharti Renault once & you will find that they treat customer as very special & important person. Very very happy with their sales & service teams. Always ready to help and support you in any way

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Interiors are good, cant say excellent. But everything is practical. AC is very good. cools down the whole cabin rapidly. Some ergonomics are different like ORVM adjustment is under hand brakes, but once you set your ORVM as per driving posititon one hardly changes it. The legspace & headspace is excellent. Easily 5 people can seat inside comfortably. Very comfortable during long journeys. My home is at Baroda, so i travels from jamnagar to baroda once a month which is 400 KM/8 hrs. jouney. The driving position is also very good. you can view the full road easily. The boot space is 475 litres which is more than enough for 10 days journey luggage for five persons.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Renault 1.5 L dCI engine is a gem. It performs very well. I have 85 PS version so i get fuel economy 17-18 km/l on highway & 15-16 km/l in city with AC on full time. Clutch is little heavy but you will not feel it after regular driving. 85 PS is enough power to roam around city & for cruising at 90-110 km/hr on highway. No need to downshift gears at lower speed in cities as very little turbo lag. Going to complete 10000 kms from Nov'15 to May 2016. Never had any problem or complaints regarding engine or ger box. Happy with fuel economy and performance.

Ride Quality & Handling

Best part of driving a Duster is its ride quality & handling on any type of road. The suspension adjustment is so well that you hardly feels potholes on high speeds. The high ground clearance also helps the car on mountain roads. 16" wheels has a very good grip on road & hardly slips on wet roads. The steering is alittle heavy and gives you confidence to take turns at high speeds.

Final Words

I'm very happy that i made a very good choice of buying duster. Its truly a value for money car with no nonsense. During final decision i was confused between Duster and Hyundai Creta, but i chose duster as it is approx. 1 lakh rupees cheaper than Creta with same facilities, and waiting period of creta was about 5 months.
