రెనాల్ట్ డస్టర్ [2012-2015] వినియోగదారుల రివ్యూలు

Exterior Full marks for the exterior. Looks so amazing that I could not stop admiring it before I took the test ride. The car looks sharp and very impressive.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Rear space is a big disappointment. The seating space says 5 can sit comfortably. I doubt that. A person with 6 feet height cannot sit comfortably as leg space sucks big time. There is no finishing in the plastic handles. The quality is so cheap that one even came out during the test drive. If you plan to drive with just luggage or a pet on the rear seat, the car is for you. Else dont think of buying it.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Pick up is not great. For a SUV compared to 2 other cars I saw, the drive is a disappointment. 

Ride Quality & Handling Just ok.

Final Words The showroom in Pune is the worst dealership I have ever been to. The receptionist tried to ignore when we asked for any sales person. The service people should "seriously" visit some other showrooms to learn how the customer is treated. There was no one to guide us or ask what  car we wanted. We had to locate the sales person ourself as if we were the needy ones. If this is the service standard before we buy, what should we expect the standard for after sales? A third grade service.

Areas of improvement Everything except exterior.

MIne is top end 110 ps-Done 6000 km and 2 months old. Paid 13.50. Nice car to be self driven, does extremely well in Hiways, intimaidates others in city to have your way, easy to manuouver and park. What else you need in a car  when you are in it for not more than 2 hours at a stretch or 200 km.

Even in rural TamilNadu, Duster did a great job in after rain roads and holes. No noise or rattling in the aftermatth.

Except in 2nd, it has good power in 4th and 5th. Need not get into lower gears even in 60kmph. After 110-120, it roars and asks u shift to 6th. Smooth as any other luxury cars on Autobahs in 6th doing 110-170. No noise or roar. Even in 170 it holds the poise.

Braking is good, gear shifting is smooth and driving is comfortable. The lumor adjustment in really thoughtful.

As far the passengers, front seating is comfy, cool and roomy. Back seating is fine for small built, dont know about taller ones. Boot space is enough for a week'd travel for four.

Now to the down side: The CAR LEAKS. YES. Ask the service people in Khivraj Pearl, Chennai. There was water and first I thout I had driven through watel logged places so some water got in. When it rained last week in Chennai, i realised it really leaks. Servce people said beedings wrongly set( in a new top end car !!)

The Audio system was working perfectly for about 15 days, then it started swithcing off every 10 minutes( exactly 10 minutes) . Have complianed but yet to get replacements.

So beware. Can anyone guide me as to how to go about these complaints.

Good Power, Roomy, intimidates autowallahs, Averaged 16.73 kmpl ( highway and Chennai).Value for MoCar leaks, mats soaked with water , audito switches off every 10 minutes

The car overall quality is good but its not too comfortable seats are not well cushioned the engine is quite good almost driven it for140k kms and its still as new but there is a huge hidden maintainence cost service charges and parts charges are very high

My buying experience is very.good, riding experience is very good because of its engine, looks or so not good, service is not very costly. this car has only one problem easily we didn't get his spares parts.

Exterior

 Exterior is really glossy and premium, chose your color properly which will differentiate the way it would look

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Features provided are very good for the price of the car,however the plastics in the dash board and on the doors could have been better. The space provided at the back seat is less and should not have been compromised for a 5 seater SUV.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Good pick up,ground clearance is good. Shift of gears smooth, however do not know whether i would be using the 5th/6th gears in mumbai city at all

Ride Quality & Handling

 Noise is less which shows the efficiency of the engine

Final Words

 Too early to say as a short drive cannot bring out the final word on the car. Would advice you to try it yourself with a test drive and understanding proper inside of the car before taking a decision.

Areas of improvement Many: Gear Handle should have been more stylye, Steering Wheel Adjustment is a mockery of technology with mild change in postion, Back seat should hv option of tilting, Back AC looks too Odd, Doors are lighter as comapred to PUNTO . Dashboard plastic looks cheap. the leather on steering hurt ur fingers, 

Drove a Test Car but already it's open door alarm is non working (Test Car mileage 1400 Km only) , I am woried about when it crosses 50 k or more.

Looks , Marketing, New Segment Creation,Price ProjectionPlastic, Steel and Back Space

Exterior Well designed & it gives you posh feeling.Height is not much..almost same as a sedan. Overall sizeis like an SUV. Its a brilliant fusion of a Sedan & SUV.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Verygood, Audio system should be improved.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Uncomparable, never you feel that you are driving a diesel car..there is no turbo lag. Pickup is so smooth and power packed.

There is no knocking on low gears .Even u can move the vehicle from Second gear  that you never feel it stars ion a low gear.

You do a test drive once u in the cabin it will take u like a rocket.

Ride Quality & Handling Shock ubsorbers are designed for us no jerk no humbs, well balanced.

Final Words If you decided to invest Rs:10L for a diesel car , pls dont finalize without driving Duster.

Areas of improvement Driver seat height adjustmet is not possible after sitting on it. Height is not much comfortable for 6``tall guy-Height must increased. Rear seat space between the seats is not enough.

All the best

Exteroir is good,looks like real suv,but the metal is very light.

Interior needs to be redesigned,the placement of rear ac unit is annoying,third person cant sit in second row,right now it can be called as four seater not five,they need to place the unit on top .leg room in the rear is less ,an suv for five should really have good legroom,they need to reduce the boot space and provide more leg room in rear,an option of baby seats should be made open to public  

Engine is refined,they shold provide 85 ps model also for trial, why its not provided is a doubt in mind. As i drove for a small distance there is no comment on it.

The ovrm adjustment under hand brake is a foolish thing why not it be the same as fluence,company needs to think about optional pack in RXL 110ps also,dealers should provide long distance trial so that customers can really understand the vehicle.

Exterior Beautiful, sturdy, stylish, sporty, just the way a 10 Lac rupee SUV should be.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very classic interiors, looks durable and top model matches with the best of the lot. 5 seater gives ample leg room both front and back along with amazing space while travelling for luggage.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Even though I have driven it for a test drive, it seems powerful enough to handle Indian roads and traffic, gear shift was smooth, just automatic mode is missing which I feel will drive away top segment for other vehicles.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is amazing, it gives enough sense of grip, great maneouvering, less noise considering it is diesel. I feel it has the right mix for a smart SUV.

Final Words Greats vehicle from a global player, I think this will change image for renault.

Areas of improvement Top end features like automatic transmission.

Interiors, drive,No automatic transmission, cruise features.
