Overview
- Renault confirms the third-generation Duster’s India debut for January 26, 2026, marking the nameplate’s return after its 2022 exit.
- Recent India-spec test mules show eyebrow-style LED DRLs, C-pillar rear door handles, wraparound tail-lamps, roof rails and a likely panoramic sunroof.
- Camera modules on the grille and mirrors point to a 360-degree view system, and a windscreen-mounted radar indicates an ADAS suite on the production model.
- The cabin has not been revealed, but reports expect a layout similar to the global model with features such as a roughly 10-inch touchscreen, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, a digital driver display and wireless charging.
- A petrol-only launch lineup is expected with a 1.3-litre turbo (about 156 hp) and a smaller 1.0–1.2-litre turbo, with a strong-hybrid reportedly planned about a year later, and pricing estimated in the Rs 10–20 lakh bracket against rivals like the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos.
