Next-gen Renault Duster design patent filed in India

A 7-seater version of the Duster called the Grand Duster is also in the works.

Renault has filed a design patent for the next generation Duster in India.

While we still do not know whether Renault would offer the new model in India, this new development has fuelled speculations of its launch.

The second generation Renault Duster has been on sale in international markets since 2017. But, despite its popularity, it never made it to India. Instead, Renault introduced a refreshed version of the old Duster (M0 platform) in 2019.

Now, it seems, Renault might be finally be ready to bring the next-gen Duster to India. If launched, it could compete with the MG Hector, Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos and Tata Harrier. Moreover, a 7-seater version of the Duster called the Grand Duster is also in the works. That could give the brand an entry into the 7-seater SUV segment.
