Duster’s automatic for the people

September 30, 2016

Dacia’s multi-award-winning Duster is now available with an automatic six-speed EDC (Efficient Dual Clutch) transmission which, at £14,895, makes it the most affordable automatic crossover on sale in the UK.

Combining the smoothness and comfort of an automatic gearbox with fuel economy and low CO2 emissions that are similar to those of a manual model, the EDC transmission is guaranteed to attract even more customers to the rugged SUV

Customers who select the advanced transmission can now enjoy a more relaxing, simpler and smoother drive, which is boosted with the EDC transmission featuring Hill Start Assist. When moving away on a slope, the EDC control unit holds the brakes for sufficient time to allow the driver to apply the throttle before the vehicle rolls back.

Available on Lauréate and flagship Prestige 4×2 Duster variants, the automatic EDC gearbox is mated to the hugely-popular 1.5 dCi 110 turbodiesel engine, returning combined fuel economy of 62.8mpg and CO2 emissions of 116g/km. The EDC-equipped Dacia Duster is available from £14,895 on-the-road and will go on sale in the UK in October.

The Duster range is priced from £9,495 on-the-road.
