Overview
- Renault has confirmed the new-generation Duster will be unveiled in India on January 26, 2026, with an official teaser released on December 25.
- The video leans on the model’s legacy without revealing the SUV, positioning the Duster as an icon returning to the mid-size segment.
- Reports indicate the India-spec model is based on the heavily localized CMF-B architecture, with manufacturing for the market reported at Renault’s Oragadam facility.
- Media expect a major cabin upgrade with a large touchscreen, digital instrument cluster, connected features, ADAS and items seen in tests such as a triple-screen layout and a powered tailgate.
- Test mules have been spotted with a 1.3-litre turbo-petrol and manual gearbox, while reports point to mild/strong-hybrid options later, diesel’s return as unlikely and four-wheel-drive capability planned.
