Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives

Maruti Baleno

  • Spacious and practical interior
  • lost of highlight features
  • refined and fun to use petrol engine
  • comfortable ride quality.

Renault Duster

  • New Turbo Petrol makes it one of the most powerful offerings in the segment. CVT and manual transmission options. Still offers outstanding ride over all road conditions.

Maruti Baleno

  • AMT is jerky to use at times
  • not as sophisticated as a CVT
  • the boot loading lip is high
  • not a sharp handling car.

Renault Duster

  • Interiors still not the most spacious. No diesel option.

Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which variant of Renault Duster is the best to buy for a family use?
  • The RXZ 110PS Diesel model of Renault Duster is the best for family use because of many convenient and safety features.Hope this helps.Happy driving!
  • 85 was good but production has stopped no idea. For what reasons.
  • 85 ps mid variant will do.If family is big wait for the 7 seater option (it may come). don't forget captur its sibling ,short list that too.

Q. Which variant of Renault Duster is better 85 PS or 110 PS power wise?
  • 110 ps taller 6 speed gearbox great on highways and in city too..85 ps is a good option with a less price.110 ps has turbo lag (mind that after second gear at low rpms)if there is no highway use prefer 85 ps
  • As per my personal experience 85 PS is best for city and highway. No turbo log no frequent gear shifting. Further Clutch plate, diesel filter and some other parts of 85 PS is cheap compared to 110 PS.
  • Definitely the 110PS variant is more powerful than the 85PS.Means it will have a better acceleration rate and a little more maximum speed.

Q. Which is better diesel and patrol in Renault Duster?
  • Manual diesel makes sense 120 and 85 bhp6 gears in 110 version .If you need a petrol go for CVT which makes sense . Also above all your purpose for the car matters most.Diesel can take 100 kms .mixed traffic. Dropping your spouse or child to school within 20 kms to and fro petrol CVT will be the sole choices. Regarding maintenance both carry their substantistive risks!!!
  • The diesel engines of Duster were very reliable.But now they have stopped the production of Diesel versions.Only now available in petrol versions.But they are equally reliable.Hope this helps! Happy driving!
  • Diesel 85bhp will give you more reliability. Mileage in highway will save you some money on fuel expenses. But if it’s daily use diesel is better else go for petrol.

    Popular hatchback 

    Baleno a well popular hatchback of the segment, Good road presence with extra seat comfort and back seat is spacious to sit three comfortabley staring is bit tight to the other competitors in this segment but features are loaded.It gives approximately 17-20 average for petrol version depending upon driving conditions.Build quality is just below average as bump and outer body effected easily in minor complications.At 70 kmph above speed noise and vibration is there.It can reach upto 150-160kmph on expressway but kindly keep safety rating in your mind while driving at high speeds.Suzuki is well known for it service availability, Service cost as well as after sale service.Service cost of baleno is too low 3000-8000 would be approximately as per shop and car condition for service.Lastly conclusion is that it is good car in the segment depends upon priority, Its resale value is excellent.

    Awesome Car 

    Always dreamt of owning an SUV, and in November 2015, I got the Renault Duster Rxe dci. Driven it for 60,000 km. Happy for its road presence, ease of driving, good ground clearance, and fuel efficiency. But, somewhat high servicing costs and 2 instances of starting issues. Had smaller cars before. The Duster feels big compared to them and suits my simple driving style. Despite being withdrawn after BS6, it brought success to Renault. Hoping for its comeback and more good products. I've seen the Dacia Sandero and think Renault should bring it to India. Good luck to everyone on Zigwheels.

    Excellent Car 

    This is an excellent car that we've driven extensively. The mileage is impressive, and the build quality is solid, not subpar. It's quite substantial in weight and offers a lot of fun while driving.
