Earlier this month, Renault's low-cost division Dacia announced plans to introduce the third-generation Duster in 2024. It'll be a completely new crossover by transitioning to the CMF-B platform used by many models sold by the Renault Nissan Mitsubishi alliance. To be manufactured in Mioveni, Romania, the affordable subcompact model has now been captured by car paparazzi undergoing testing while hiding a fully redesigned body.
It appears to be larger than the current model and boasts design cues from the Bigster concept. The latter will morph into Dacia's first C-segment model when it'll go on sale in 2025, with production to take place at the same Romanian factory. While the outgoing Duster is 4.32 meters (170 inches) long, its replacement will have room to grow considering the Bigster is going to stretch at around 4.6 meters (181 inches).
