2014 Dacia Duster Facelift revealed in full: Frankfurt 2013

The 2014 Facleift for the Dacia Duster in Europe (*pictured) has been revealed

The UK hasn’t had the Dacia Duster for very long, mainly because it was selling so well in Europe Renault couldn’t manage to build right hand drive versions. And it looks like much the same scenario will play out with the Dacia Duster facelift – revealed today in full before Frankfurt – with it rolling out in Europe but with no immediate plans to bring it to the UK.

But if you want a LHD, or you’re one of our European readers, then the Duster SUV titivations for 2014 – already previewed by a single photo – offers more glitzy version of the budget SUV, and a new engine.

The cosmetic stuff amounts to the usual new grill and lights, new roof bars, new alloys and some extra bits of chrome.

Inside, the Dacia gets an interior more akin to the Sandero – so its a bit more modern and upmarket – with new upholstery, redesigned seats and the option of MEDIA NAV with Bluetooth.

Under the skin the Dacia gets a more powerful engine with the introduction of the 1.2 litre TCe petrol turbo offering 125 PS and promised economy of 47mpg.

We have no idea when Dacia will bring the facelift for the Duster to the UK (although the interior updates for Europe pretty much match what the UK already gets), but they will at some point.
