    The best review I have seen of the new Duster. I have just ordered the full Hybrid with Extreme level trim and this review has reaffirmed my decision. I am new to Dacia - entirely due to the new design which really turned my head. Thank you.

    I was going to buy a Journey at the beginning of 2025, but I think the new Bigster has ticked more boxes for me and I will hang on a little longer with my Captur before I trade it in for the larger Bigster.
    The Dacia Duster has improved so much…. but I think the Bigster will be even better.
    Please give us a try out in that. Your reviews are great! Nice and honest!!!

    Great review. Just ordered a Journey 4x2 TCe 130 mild hybrid. It will be my third Duster. In 10 years of ownership I have had zero issues. It is a much classier drive than my 2018 version. One thing you didn’t mention with the “you clip” accessories is the lamp, it comes with a usb-c charging cable and obviously fits on all the lugs, particularly useful on the underside of the tailgate if you are unloading in the dark.

    Great review, I have the previous model. I am considering the new model, however I really like my 1.3, 4 cylinder engine and manual handbrake which in my opinion should not have been replaced by the electronic handbrake. As you say it ticks a lot of boxes but the reason I bought my Duster is because I could manually fold the mirrors, tilt my interior mirror, dip my headlights and do basic maintenance on the car myself................think I will keep this one.

    • @TeoSluga

I've driven both versions, 4x4 and 4x2. 4x2 is so much beeter handling on the road. Night and day difference. 4x4 is more like a working horse. Never considered full hybrid version, too expensive. For that amount I would rather have a bigger car.

    Fantastic review, thank you for that. I have already bought my Duster 3 Extreme Hybrid with all available packages - and I wished I had these informations beforehand. It really is a great car. And I might add: it is my very first Dacia and I honestly have never thought, that I would buy one. Especially if you keep in mind the first models they brought to the market (in my case in Germany around 2010). But man: I love my new Duster, the whole family is blown away because nobody expected this car being this good.

    Your report is excellent, and earned my subscription. One more thing about the hybrid powertrains... the IC part has a long life timing chain, and not a cambelt. This is a big saving on servicing. These engines are also used throughout Renault, Dacia, Nissan and also Mercedes Benz, so have huge production volumes, and engine part costs should be low.

    Excellent review, many thanks. I was interested in what you said about the discomfort you suffered because of the position of your left leg when driving the auto/hybrid version.
    I live in France and bought the same hybrid in September (L/H drive ) and there’s tons of space for one’s left leg.
    It obviously depends on whether your left leg rests against the wheel arch (L/H ) drive version or the transmission tunnel in the R/H drive UK specked version…..I’ve driven 6,000 kms so far and it’s still a great car. 😊

  • @art322
    @art322 22 дня назад +1

    Got the prices in Ireland from a local dealer today. The Hybrid ranges from €34-37k which, as usual, is way higher than the uk price. This puts it firmly in competition with 5 year old Rav4 hybrids and firmly in the "aspirational" category for me.

    • @TeoSluga
      @TeoSluga 22 дня назад

      Why would you go for the full hybrid? That's very expensive technology. I think that if you want a full hybrid car you should choose sth else, like Renault Symbioz. I wen't for 1.2 TCe, it's powerful enough and better at higher speed...

    So waiting for journey hybrid 140 to come out
    Still waiting I thought it was a bit pricey
    Duster car been delayed can’t test drive waiting time to order
    Just dragging on
    So looked at a the new MG HS 2024 trophy auto 1.6 turbo
    Bit more pricey but got a good discount due to my work
    So £26,100
    Same price as the duster
    No comparison
    The MG has tons more kit the interior and exterior finish far is superior
    7 year warranty I could go on electric everything
    Plus 39mpg
    So as a duster fan I think the lower spec cars are a good deal
    But the journey hybrid is too expensive and in my opinion
    And compared to the MG HS at the price I got it
    The duster is no where near as good value
    And the MG HS is a joy to drive
    And it pains me to say it the duster has lost it edge
    It dull in comparison to the MG HS

    A little surprised that an hour long review of a “car for family use” didn’t place emphasis on safety - NCAP 3 stars overall with front driver/passenger chest protection rated as “marginal” ….. certainly not a strong suit for the car. Of course one can argue there’s a trade off between affordability and passive / active safety, however potential buyers should be aware of this allowing for an informed choice.

    • @houseofcars1973
      @houseofcars1973  23 дня назад +5

      You make a very valid point. I have to say, I’m not a big advocate of NCAP ratings these days as they tend to emphasise active electronic safety aids rather than passive structural integrity, but even so, this is something that I should have included in the review. I will endeavour to mention safety ratings in future reviews and thank you for your feedback.

      Euro NCAP (New Car Assessment Program) evaluates vehicle safety through a series of crash tests and assessments. Vehicles are tested for adult and child passenger protection, pedestrian safety, and the effectiveness of safety assistance systems.
      One important aspect is the "presence" of features like seatbelt reminders. If a car lacks an audible alert for seatbelts, it can negatively impact its score in the safety assistance category. This can lead to a lower overall score, affecting the star rating the vehicle receives. A higher star rating indicates better safety performance, so these features are crucial for achieving the best results.
      Some Dacia models do not come equipped with an audible seatbelt reminder, which is a cost-saving measure to keep the purchase price lower. However, this lack of a warning can lead to a reduced score in Euro NCAP's safety assessment, resulting in a lower overall star rating. This doesn’t mean that the car is not resistant to impacts with certain structures; it simply indicates that it may lack some features that enhance overall safety ratings.
      That's how it works. 🤔😉
