Third-Generation Renault Duster Is Expected to Arrive in the Country Next Year with a New Platform and Unprecedented Design.
The New Renault Duster third generation is already making appearances here! Follower @gustavookawa captured an exclusive shot, published on journalist João Del Arco’s Instagram (@joao_delarco). The SUV was seen being transported on a truck’s platform, next to its smaller sibling, the Kardian, both heavily camouflaged.
Still without an official date from Renault, the expectation is that the SUV will arrive in Brazil next year, but at the latest by 2026. It’s worth noting that the utility vehicle, built on the CMF-B platform, is already available in Europe, both from Renault and Dacia.
Third-Generation Renault Duster
The Third-Generation Renault Duster comes with the modular CMF-B platform from the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance, which supports electrification and hybrid versions. In Europe, for example, the model has a hybrid engine in two of the three different configurations.
