VIDEO: Dacia Duster Commercial Redefines “Insulting” [NSFW]


This here commercial for Dacia's low-cost Duster SUV is the work of Dutch advertising company Artcore. We should warn you that the ad is a 1 minute and 46 second parade of almost continuous swearing. While we can appreciate some over-the-top creations, we just can’t see this ever airing, at least not during daytime hours. But even if the commercial somehow made it on your TV set, we doubt that this is what Dacia wants to promote.

The commercial has been labeled as “banned” by various internet sources, but it seems to have been produced to showcase a radical idea, rather than to be purpose driven advertisement. The foul-mouthed clip is available right after the break.

Dacia Duster Small SUV Photographed Inside and Out in Public


The new economy 4x4 model from Dacia, the Duster, has been photographed during what appears to be some kind of dealer presentation in its home market in Romania. While the Renault Group published a few exterior shots of the Duster back in December, this is the first time we get to see how the small SUV's interior looks like.

As you can see for yourselves in the gallery after the jump, the Duster's dashboard bears a strong resemblance to the Nissan Qashqai (albeit with previous generation Renault switchgear).

The five-seater model, which makes uses of the same platform found on the Dacia Logan, measures 4.31 metres in length and 1.82 metres in width.

When it goes on sale in Europe this Spring, buyers will be able to choose from three engine options, a 1.6-liter petrol engine in 110hp and 85hp guises, or a 105hp dCi diesel powerplant, all available with two-wheel or four-wheel drive.

The four-wheel drive system that is borrowed from Nissan has three different driving modes - Auto, which splits front/rear torque according to grip; Lock, whereby 50 per cent of torque is consistently fed through the rear axle and 4x2 where the transmission is locked into two-wheel drive.
