According to Mr. Sumit Sawhney, country CEO and managing director of Renault India, customers told the company “not to alter the design DNA” of the Renault Duster. Hence, the update India gets is similar to the Brazilian model, and a bit different from the Euro-spec Duster you see above. While the front is largely similar to its predecessor, the ‘new’ Duster gets reprofiled headlights, a thicker chrome grille and a new bumper with a larger skid plate. Over to the sides, there are no changes to the sheet metal and Renault have opted for new wing mirrors with integrated turn signals, new alloy wheels and roof rails. Towards the rear, the taillight element is all-new, as is the skid plate; the rest is as before. The Cayenne Orange color you see in these images is a new addition to the palette. In short, the 2016 Renault Duster manages to look fresh despite not having undergone significant design changes. And customers are bound to be pleased as it won’t be mistaken for anything else but a Duster, which is exactly what they wanted, according to Renault. That being said, there are a few features Renault should have included for the Duster, especially for a value conscious market like India. For example, the European Duster gets LED daytime running lights, which have been deleted for the Indian model. Renault will not offer projector headlights either, which has become an industry norm for a INR 10+ lakh car these days. The 2016 Duster however offers buyers more personalization with 50+ accessories, over half of them brand new, says Renault. You can have details like Red highlights for the Renault logo on your alloy wheel to a faux carbon fiber wrap for the wing mirrors among others. Source: indianautosblog.com Exterior
