On behalf of all Romanians, I want to thank Thomas for the correct pronunciation of Dacia.

[guywerb]

Man, that brand has come such a long way. This car not only makes a lot of sense, it's even lovable. I wasn't expecting that from Dacia AT ALL.

[hjpinhei]

It is going to sell like crazy. The design is incredible

[muthukumaranc]

Although it's cheap, I'm impressed by the effort and passion that has gone through this product. You can see that the engineers wanted to make a great customer experience interacting with the car, unlike other brands. And the clever features like the u clip are brilliant, glad they went with the theme throughout the car.

[yissibiiyte]

This car to me ironically feels more expensive and premium than many of the "premium" brands which disguise cost-cutting as being "minimalist". This Dacia has real buttons and manual controls all over the place, which to me feels so much nicer than hiding everything in a screen or capacitive BS. This Dacia seems better built than a new Mercedes.

[Tibchy]

Dacia is what Škoda used to be back in the days. I'm really digging the design too! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[camilstoenescu]

One of the best bang for the buck 4x4 SUVs currently available on the European market.

[mykyb]

I hawe read in the Newspapers that by the previous models of Duster, the design was made by a joint team of Renault and Romanian designers and engineers. This latest model of Duster is actualy the first design made entirely by the Romanian designers and engineers team, and they done a wery impresive job. As a Romanian I am wery proud of the team that designed this car, nice job guys, keep it up the good work!

[geodanila]

Can't believe I'm going to say this but this new generation actually looks good to me

[jennydonne]

Dacia is a very interesting brand that hasn't overinflated the price of their cars making them affordable for everyone. Bravo Dacia

[cyberpope]

Why am I more excited about a Dacia than a new BMW?

[phunk]

Seriously as an aussie this car intrigued me... like i dig it. looks good, good basic, no bloated marketing frill. If they sell in in the Australian market for AU$30-40K i would buy it str8 away

[jeffshreve]

One of the best car reviewers on YouTube today. Makes it about the car not the presenters ego … Thank you sir 👏👏👏

[lionelb]

Really pleasantly surprised
The Sandero was already a nice step up, now this Duster nailed it

[garetteasdale]

Ive got a 4 year old Dacia sandero, the slightly smaller version, with the tiny 3 cylinder lpg (under 1 euro a litre) engine.9 litre, with the raised suspension, roofbars, higher spec.very happy we have done over 25000 km in it, in about 10 months, very economic, very reliable drove to Poland, Malaga, UK all over the place, and back home to portugal, cheaper only by price, the quality is brilliant/ for my pocket.

oh my lord, I had Dacia in 1994 it was red color. None option but never give me problems .when I see now .I couldn't believe it, honestly surprised me, I love to visit Romania one more time, to see how much change, lovely country with lovely people

[SiegeHearts]

Always unfortunate that these brands aren't in the US but I understand why given our market differences. Really creative usage with the mounting points for the accessories, this car is really well thought out to be simple and functional. Kudos to Dacia!

[philtoni]

Incredible value and attractive looks. Difficult to argue against this especially when you consider their very strong residuals (at least here in the UK). Great initial review Thomas. 👍
