    2015 Renault Duster launched at Rs 8.30 lakh

    2015 Renault Duster gets interior and mechanical updates.

    Renault has launched the updated 2015 Duster in India with more features. While on the outside it only gets body coloured wing-mirrors and door handles, there are major equipment add-ons on the inside.

    The Duster front-wheel drive line-up now comes with an arm rest for front row passengers, soft-touch dashboard and new upholstery for the seats. Also on offer is the new Eco-mode feature which according to Renault, delivers upto 10 percent higher fuel economy.

    The 2015 Duster FWD also comes with a new instrument cluster, cruise control, new steering column and speed-sensitive door locks. There is also a new multi-information display on offer which has a gear-shift indicator and a service reminder feature. Some of these features were earlier offered on the more-expensive Renault Duster AWD.

    Three engines are on offer - a 103bhp 1.6-litre petrol motor, and two 1.5-litre diesels, tuned to make 85bhp and 108.5bhp. The diesel engines of the 2015 Duster are now tuned for better fuel-efficiency, and deliver 19.64kpl for the 108.5bhp and 19.87kpl for the lower-spec diesel motor.

    The updated 2015 Renault Duster front-wheel drive range starts at Rs 8.30 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

    Along with the 2015 Duster, Renault has also confirmed that it will launch the Lodgy MPV in India soon, and an all-new compact hatchback this year.
