| Ground clearance: | 182 mm (7.2 inches) | 210 mm (8.3 inches) | |
| Because of the higher ground clearance, Dacia Duster can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps. At the same time, the higher ground clearance can reduce stability and handling on paved roads, especially at higher speeds. Note, however, that this Dacia Duster version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. Choose from four 4x4 versions of Dacia Duster 2017 if off-road driveability is important to you. | |||
