• Commercial versions of Dacia's new diesel-powered 4x4 Duster are on their way priced at 26,799 (ex-VAT). The van should be available within a few weeks, but the long-wheelbase pickup is not expected until April, Both variants are powered by the well-established 42kW (56hp) 1.6-litre Renault-built diesel and have selectable fourwheel drive via a four-speed gearbox and two-speed transfer box. The diesels join a 1.4litre petrol van and a shortwheelbase pickup.
Chief Executive of Dacia Concessionaires, Richard Steyr, says the diesel option will enable the company to begin serious sales to customers such as those involved in construction, forestry and fanning. He hopes to sell about 1,000 diesels this year.
