Renault Duster! What changes could make Duster a better purchase?

Renault has launched the Duster recently and many customers would have expected something unique this time because this is the third generation facelift and they have made some design changes inside and out but they have remained to showcase that they have launched a facelift and the car looks good and it is a change of design in some aspects at the front and preferably rear because with that thick black piece running in between the rear stop lamps it does look sporty.
Ok! Let us discuss  the changes that could bring more customers towards Duster are:


Engines: Engines are punchy regarding the price range it is in and it has no complaints except some major things like NVH levels, an automatic gearbox and not AMT which one might feel they are offering because AMT is different from the auto gearbox. They have the chance to increase the price because they are offering more and can make customers understand that. One more thing is the features that are offered in AMT are not there in the RXZ AWD variant which is the top end manual variant and also costs the same as the AMT but fails to bring more features like the AMT.




Interiors and Exteriors: The cabin of Duster does feel spacious but it lacks the upmarket or the futuristic appeal which other rivals offer with more ease and when an SUV like Duster is going to be released there will be some expectations and to fulfill them I must say Renault has failed a bit. Duster can bring sales I am not denying it but definitely not like the other SUV's in this price range while looking at the sales of other rivals in this segment. 
The sunroof has become common in many cars and SUV's because sunroofs actually create an airy feel and of course, Duster is spacious with the leather seats but this one could bring more in my opinion. The other things I would like to discuss is about the infotainment system, this is also one more reason and I obey that now it offers android and apple car play but it doesn't look futuristic or upmarket when you look at it competition-wise and Renault should step the game up else they will fall back in sales. Not only that but the steering is literally feels blank and with those controls down the steering will feel like odd placement and very little no of buttons also not looking good and appealing as well so things like steering mounted controls, sunroof, different styled door handles, LED headlamps and also an auto gearbox, responsive infotainment system and push start button and all are required in the changes block but don't know when Renault would bring changes like these and bring it in an all new avatar. We just have to wait for it to be like this and this happens only if they realise these kind of requirements are needed for the customers as well. Please comment down your views on this post.

Kia Sonet! Package unpacked.

Hello and Welcome to CarsReboot! Today we're gonna discuss the all-new production-ready Kia Sonet and here's everything you need to know about it.                        Kia Motors India has unveiled the all-new Kia Sonet on 7 Aug 2020 and here are the details about it. Let us start with each and every aspect of it in detail.                           1. Design: Kia has already showcased the Sonet i.e, the sub-4 metre SUV in the auto expo and they've done a fantastic job by bringing most of the prototype design elements into the real world design.                            Starting with the front, this one looks angrier with that red accents on the grille and the elephant tusk-like DRL's look wild as they've mentioned as its caption. The LEDs look nice and below, there are some sporty elements ...

Renault Duster! It had its chance.

Welcome to CarsReboot!  There are many people who love Duster for its proportions, ride quality and also the sense of space it has inside it but now it has lost its charm to some extent with its other rivals and it fell into the category of only petrol with no AWD but it still has its chance to become a bigger player if Renault could do some key changes in it. 1. Engine: The 1.5lit was a very good one but now the company has shut it due to the upcoming BS6 regulations and it now replaces both the 1.5lit Diesel and petrol with a 1.3lit petrol engine which is BS6 compliant and the power figures have changed a bit. If they really needed some strong sales then introducing a 1.5lit BS6 compliant diesel and petrol engines with auto gearboxes in both fuel options would have made it a strong seller for Renault. 2. Interiors: Many might have felt this but I intended to stress about this particular one because the interiors in Duster were not that appealing and the reason is...

Kia Seltos Vs MG Hector VsTata Harrier Vs Hyundai Creta

Now that Kia Seltos is unveiled and the design, features it is going to offer and also the major part i.e, the engine and transmission options are going to wow the customers for sure. How they are gonna price it and the variants line up is gonna create more curiosity than anything. It doesn't look butchy like Harrier and sophisticated like Creta but it is modern, futuristic yet the way it is designed in terms of interiors and exteriors are very fresh to look at and also many of the features were segmented first like the new connectivity features and they named it UVO and those features are more or less the same when you look at Venue  from Hyundai. But we are here to make a comparison on which one will create the benchmark in the segment and also in sales numbers for now by comparing its rivals. 1.Rivals: The Rivals are Tata Harrier, Hyundai Creta, MG Hector. 2.Engines: Here among the bunch MG Hector and Tata Harrier are powered by the same 2.0 lit multi-jet engine from...
