New Dacia Duster, presented at the forthcoming Frankfurt Motor Show, has been upgraded for European left hand drive markets. Retaining the design features largely responsible for its success, the new model sports more emphatic 4×4 design cues.

The front end has been upgraded, with a redesigned grille, adorned by two chrome-plated strips and housing a new air intake and new double-optic headlights with daytime running lights.

“We built on the appeal of the original model and its proportions. Identity components such as the grille have been modernised. We have also strengthened the 4×4 cues of the vehicle, while keeping all its useful features. New Duster gets an even stronger character while retaining its initial DNA”, said David Durand, Head of Styling for the Entry range.

New roof bars with slatted supports underline the car’s SUV character, while new 16-inch “Dark Metal” alloy wheels and Mud and Snow tyres revitalise the profile of New Dacia Duster.

At the back, new lights echo the styling cues of the front end, notably though the use of chrome. A chrome-plated tail pipe and new badging round out the exterior styling changes and further boost the car’s personality.
