The Renault Duster 2025 marks the comeback of one of India’s most loved SUVs — now with a tougher design, smarter technology, and more efficient powertrains. When the first-gen Duster launched in India, it completely changed the compact SUV market. It was rugged, practical, and delivered real SUV performance at a time when most rivals were soft crossovers.

The upcoming 2025 Duster continues that legacy but in a far more modern, global, and future-ready package. It’s not just an upgrade — it’s a full-scale transformation designed for a new generation of SUV buyers.

Design — Premium, Muscular & Global

The Renault Duster 2025 is built on the new CMF-B platform, giving it wider proportions and a more confident stance. The design follows Renault’s updated global styling language with:

✔ Bolder grille featuring the new Renault logo
✔ C-shaped LED DRLs and LED headlights
✔ Higher ground clearance with chunky cladding
✔ Sculpted body lines and strong shoulder profile
✔ Stylish 18-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels
✔ New Y-shaped LED tail-light signature

The SUV looks more aerodynamic but still carries the unmistakable toughness that made the Duster a legend.

Engine & Performance — Power Meets Efficiency

Renault is expected to offer multiple engine options globally and in India, including:

1.2-litre Turbo-Petrol (≈130 bhp)

Smooth, responsive, and tuned for everyday usability.

1.3-litre Turbo-Petrol (≈150 bhp)

A more powerful option suited for highway cruising and performance lovers.

Hybrid Powertrain (Expected)

A petrol engine paired with an electric motor for better mileage and lower emissions — ideal for city driving.

Gearbox Options

6-speed manual
CVT automatic
AWD (All-Wheel Drive) for top variants

The updated suspension, chassis tuning, and traction modes ensure the new Duster remains equally capable on broken roads, city traffic, and weekend adventure trails.

Interior — Premium Feel With Modern Tech

Inside, the 2025 Duster has undergone a dramatic redesign. The cabin now feels more upmarket, practical, and tech-savvy.

Higher trims may include:

Whether in the city or off the highway, the new Duster promises a dynamic and controlled driving feel.
