8 Dacia Duster Commercial

Dacia has facelifted its Duster Commercial car-derived van, which is available to order now for £13,995.

The new model has been given a visual overhaul, to bring its styling in line with the rest of Dacia's updated line-up. The specification has also been revised and simplified.

Based on the Duster SUV, the factory-converted Duster Commercial offers up to 1,623 litres of cargo volume and a payload capacity of 503Kg.

The conversion sees the car's rear seats removed, replaced with flat load floor, mesh bulkhead, load cover, opaque window film, and security alarm. The Duster Commercial has N1 homologation.

The vehicle offers a bay length of 1,792mm, has a load width of 1,247mm and a floor-to-ceiling height on the 4x2 models of 917mm.

Two petrol engines are available: a turbocharged three-cylinder 1.0-litre TCe 90, delivering 90hp and 160Nm, with combined cycle economy of up to 45.6mpg (WLTP); and a TCe 150, coupled exclusively with Dacia’s six-speed dual-clutch EDC transmission. 

A1.5-litre Blue dCi diesel engine is also available. It develops 115hp and 260Nm and is available with the choice of either two- or four-wheel-drive. The Blue dCi 115 4x2 offers impressive fuel economy of 57.6mpg (WLTP) and low CO2 emissions of just 127g/km, while the 4x4 version emits 139g/km and achieves a creditable 53.3mpg (WLTP) on the combined cycle.

As standard, the Duster Commercial Essential features LED daytime running lights, body-coloured bumpers, black roof bars with ‘Duster’ inscription, 16-inch steel wheels, air conditioning, electric front windows, cruise control with speed limiter, seven-function on-board computer, height- and reach-adjustable steering wheel with backlit controls, DAB radio with Bluetooth connectivity and a USB connection.

Moving up to the Expression specification adds 16-inch alloy wheels, body-colour door handles, front fog lights, heated and electrically adjustable door mirrors, rear-view camera with parking sensors, hill descent control, and a centre differential lock on 4x4 models. The interior, meanwhile, gains upgraded upholstery, black door sill protection strips, leather steering wheel, centre console with driver’s armrest, height-adjustable driver’s seat with lumbar adjustment, and Dacia’s Media Display infotainment system with 8-inch touchscreen, smartphone replication with both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and two USB ports.

The latest version of the Dacia Duster Commercial is available to order now starting at £13,995 excluding VAT, with first deliveries due in the last quarter of 2022.
