Renault’s Romanian budget brand Dacia will launch in Britain with the sub-£7k new Sandero supermini and sub-£10k Duster crossover in December – and no discounts will be offered on the pair, even to fleet customers.

Renault’s UK MD Thierry Sybord explained: “The pricing is very aggressive so there will be no deals at all.”

The arrival of Dacia comes as part of Renault’s major restructuring plan. The dealer network will be cut by a third, and all 135 of the remaining franchises at the start of 2013 will sell Dacias alongside Renaults.

Renault is confident Dacia can play a significant role in boosting sales figures, which have fallen from around 126,000 in 2006 to roughly 75,000 this year.

“If we’d had Dacia in the market, the situation would not be as it is now,” said Sybord. And he added that there was no risk of Dacia treading on Renault’s toes, with the latter set to move upmarket. “Dacia works because most customers are new or come from the used car market,” he stressed.

nu-mi displace dusterul deloc. in general nu inteleg suv-urile, insa asta e simpatica...nu stiu de ce.

M-am jucat un pic cu un Duster acum aproape un an, si mi-a lasat o impresie placuta per ansamblu. Motorul pe benzina (1.6) nu e o alegere foarte inspirata, nu mi s-a parut ca trage extraordinar, in rest masina e echilibrata, a k a un raport calitate-pret bunicel.

Si eu am mers cu Duster 1.5 Diesel. se tine foarte bine in offroad datorita vitezelor foarte scurte insa pe asfalt nu-i chiar asa placut sa tot "mesteci" in motorina, mai ales in oras; in a 6-a chiar trage, nu e doar o viteza pt cruising. Avand in vedere ca era si full echipat Dusterul mi-a lasat o impresie foarte buna.

Hai hui

imi place si mie Duster-ul. in Italia e plin de Dacii. niciodata n-am crezut ca o sa vad asa ceva.

una peste alta e super ok!

E plina toata europa de ele, de cand cu recesiunea nu mai arunca lumea banii aiurea. Abia astept sa le bage in UK ca or sa ajunga si aici.

Da, am vazut filmuletul ala. Tot aud ca ba e mai offroad decat ASX-ul, ba e mai nu-stiu-cum decat nu-stiu-care... da', cand vad 3 stele la NCAP, ma ia cu greata si imi trece. Ma gandesc ca, daca la capitolul siguranta sta atat de praf (iar NCAP-ul sunt in gradina lor acolo... Renault-ul are scoruri de jdemii de miliarde de stele), oare la alte capitole... cum o sta?

Eh, banuiesc ca am sa aflu... doar prietena a pus ochii pe una d-asta acu'. Desi plecase de la ideea de CR-V!!! Sniff sniff!

Nu doar europa, am vazut surprinzator de multe si in africa. Multe loganuri de taxi dar si masini particulare. Partea misto e ca erau printre putinele modele mai noi, in rest doar vechituri.

Yula iti iei si tu...

Nah ma multumesc cu vechiturile mele dar am un prieten care considera un Duster ca viitoarea masina.
