The Dacia Duster Concept is the first concept car of the Romanian car manufacturer Dacia, produced in 2009.[2]

Overview[edit]

This crossover was presented at the 2009 Geneva International Motor Show,[3] and foreshadowed the future Dacia Duster SUV marketed from 2010.

Designed in collaboration by the Renault Design Central Europe studio in Bucharest and Renault's Technocentre in Paris, the Duster is a crossover coupe with three doors, one on the driver's side and two doors on the passenger's side, including a rear-hinged "suicide" door.[4]

It measures 4,250 millimetres (167 in) in length and is powered by the Renault-Nissan 1.5 dCi diesel engine making 105 horsepower (78 kW).[5] The concept features an adaptable interior, with the passenger seat sliding under the driver's seat, allowing for a large 2-meter long cargo space.[6] The Duster also comes with a tailgated box structure that can slide out from behind the car, creating an additional pickup cargo bed.
