New Mahindra Scorpio VS Duster VS Terrano VS Strome

We bring you an on-paper comparison of the New Mahindra Scorpio with the Tata Safari Strome, Ford EcoSport, Renault Duster and the Nissan Terrano

SUVs are big in India. Well, quite literally too. And that is exactly the reason why more and more manufacturers are introducing new products to get a piece of the pie. The fact that we have seen so many SUVs being launched in the past couple of years is a testimony of the same. We put all the latest offerings in this class of cars under a magnifying glass. 


Renault Duster


Renault Duster 
No discussion about SUVs is complete without the Renault Duster. That is the kind of success that the car has brought for Renault. The Duster has been an ideal car for someone who is looking for a good urban SUV which gives you that big car feel and is yet compact enough to be driven in the city with ease. TheRenault Duster is on offer with both petrol as well as diesel engines. The gasoline Duster is powered by a 1.6-litre engine that pumps 105PS of power and 145Nm of torque. The 1.5-litre diesel on the other hand is available in two states of tune - producing 85PS and 200Nm and 110PS and 248Nm. The petrol comes mated to a 5-speed geatbox as does the 85PS diesel. The top-of-the-line RxZ diesel though comes mated to a 6-speed transmission. The Duster takes on the rough roads with the help of the McPherson strut - torsion beam combination for the front and rear suspension.

In terms of features the top-end RxL petrol variant has all the necessary features like airbags, ABS, EBD and brake assist for enhanced safety. It also gets a 2din audio system with AUX, USB and Bluetooth compatibility. In addition to these the top diesel variant RxZ (o) also gets alloy wheels, driver seat height adjust, GPS navigation system, leather wrapped steering wheel and a rear AC unit. 

The only thing stopping it from being a full-fledged SUV was the absence of an AWD version. With the Duster AWD launched, Renault has addressed that too. The Duster 4x4 is only available in 110PS diesel though. 

Renault Duster: Rs 7.82 lakh - 12.99 lakh (ex-showroom Mumbai)
