The new-generation Dacia Duster, set to arrive in India as a Renault in 2025, recently scored a 3-star safety rating in Euro NCAP's crash tests. Additionally, the driver and rear passenger chest protection were rated as marginal during the full-width rigid barrier test. However, the Duster offered good protection in both the side barrier and side pole impact tests, earning maximum points in this category. For child safety, the Duster provided adequate protection to the neck of a 10-year-old occupant in the frontal test. All critical body areas for both 6-year-olds and 10-year-olds received good protection during the frontal offset and side barrier impact tests.
