What have we to € 11,990?
Nothing ... or almost. To view an access fee barrel, Dacia has done the same way as the Logan and Sandero in reducing the legal minimum equipment, with ABS and airbags.
Only progress compared to other models, the steering is also standard. The rest is desert. And do not hope to offer some options, there is none.
This version of Access will be restricted to a role of image to attract customers but sales at home are very low. The usefulness of a version like this is quite questionable in such a vehicle
Such versions of the Sandero and Logan have a specific role because they allow customers on low incomes to have a new car without frills instead of an opportunity without warranty.
It is difficult for customers to settle for the version of Access Duster, which has no equipment and comfort which has only two wheels. What is the point against a Logan MCV to access, habitability equivalent to € 8,990?
A Duster correct, how much does it cost?
To qualify for equipment "', there must go upmarket. Above finishing basic level atmosphere was a bit tight. In series, it has also split up the seat, electric front windows and central locking with remote control.
Then we have the level winner. But you have to add € 900 to € 250 for air conditioning and CD radio. If you do not need air conditioning, stop there, because the superior finish that is differentiated by its presence in the series, in addition to fog. Question engine, no worries. The 3 blocks provide acceptable performance.
No need to afford and the 1.5 dCi 110 hp, 85 hp version just fine. But not rear-wheel drive on this block. It is confined to 110 hp versions. Although less than 25% of the Duster will be offered in 4 × 4, or the market average.
Finally, to get a decent car with air conditioning and CD radio, it must at least pay € 14,150 to € 15,350 petrol and diesel, 4 × 2. The AWD currency is € 2,000. In reality, customers are more than that on the table, since the average selling price is € 16,700.
What does the competition?
It therefore moves away from € 11,990 to start. But the Dacia is an excellent deal. A Qashqai to Nissan, similar to the template, does not fall below € 19,850 (1.6 115 hp) with equivalent equipment.
A Suzuki SX4 displayed at € 16 490 (1.6 107 hp), but it is shorter by at least 20 cm. The only one to do better is the Lada Niva 4 × 4 with € 11,150 but the design is anti-dated and archaic benefits. But for those who want a franchisor, a true, great.
The Duster is a judicuex commercial choice.
And you do not fool yourself. It is a real business card, with more than 10,000 orders taken during the first month of marketing in France. Result lengthen the delivery time to reach a minimum six months now!
