in Italy there are 17-inch wheels as standard and 18-inch ones are optional, in fact I'm fine with the standard ones. Deegre of inclination is 26

The 18 inch wheel is not bigger then the 17 inch

100% correct! It´s just slightly bigger than the existing Duster II (thanks Dacia).

Da, dar la precomandă o să primesc de 18😅

Mihai, this is a PRESS release - don´t believe anything! The trail has been made to fit for the Duster´s capabilities. Beside that, the only improvement I see are the bigger wheels!🤣I guess you make a big mistake there, 18" rims says NOTHING about wheel size as long as you don´t know the tire size (and yes, wheels are slightly bigger now ~1,4cm). Bigger wheels are ALWAYS better offroad and you can be shure that they will not touch anything otherwise the car will never get a street license. Your and mine Duster II already move without trottle if the the road isn´t to steep.😃 Due to automatic idle rpm increase, not because "torque". Duster III torque is definitivly worse than the existing 4wd Dusters (no matter if gasoline or diesel). Electronics are the ONLY way to help offroad if you have no mechanical locker. One of the shortfalls of the existing 4wd-Duster are old controls of wheelspin and intelligent software. And I doubt that your rear differential will ever gets overheatet 😂as it does almost nothing. I guess you´re talking about the power distribution front to rear (central diff via clutch). I´m not 100% shure, but overheating more likely is generated by clutch slip, in theory 100% lock front to rear should not generate stress = heat (compare to the engine / gearbox clutch).

The very basic trim(4x2) in Portugal comes with 215/70 r16 tires! These are the real deal for off roading! I think the low rpm torque comes from the mild hybrid system. IMO, short suspension travel is the weakest part of its off-road capabilities. And, I think they don't change it😢. But overall, I like this new generation!

Inreally like the new duster. Can’t wait to get mine. But I’ll change some things I noticed on the reviews as soon as I get my car. I’ll install some sound deadening, upgrade all the lights to led, get the double trunk floor from the journey for my extreme. Get other rims since the there aren’t much good tires in the 18“ size. And the funny little rear wiper will get deleted. It’s so small it’s kinda useless, but I want to install a mirror dashcam which shows me a camera image, that should increase the rear visibility and look better

And the 18“ rims are optional on the extreme. I ordered mine with 17“ but I’ll get a second set in another size which is better for the way I want to use the car

@@DusterCoolTravels He didn´t state if he ordered a 4wd or 4x2...

very good points (wheel size, new exhaust position....and more).....in my case, I still plan to drive my D2 for as long as no "big" problems arise....but, one thing I am sure, following your channel in the next months (year?) I expect soon to see real world/first hand impressions on the version you will achieve to purchase....so....staying connected 🥰👍

No

It reveals that 3 cylinder engine will blow off road. You can already hear it struggles
