NEW Dacia Duster (2024) CRASH TEST | ★★★☆☆

Dacia’s ‘no-frills’ sales strategy is well-known, the brand having previously shunned active safety technology in favour of affordability. It then becomes no surprise that the Duster emerges from Euro NCAP’s tests with no more than three stars. However, legislation now insists that all cars must be equipped with autonomous emergency braking, emergency lane-keeping systems, intelligent speed limiters, and driver fatigue detection. The Duster fulfills this obligation but does little more, despite having the technologies fitted. For active safety, Euro NCAP’s standards for 5-star ratings are considerably higher than those of legislation. Disappointingly, the car’s occupant protection also shows limited ambitions, with modest levels of adult occupant protection. For child occupant protection, Dacia’s Romanian-manufactured small SUV performs adequately but leaves room for improvement in certain aspects of its performance.
