Like the current Duster, the new the 2019 Renault Duster facelift will continue to rival the Hyundai Creta, Maruti S-Cross, etc. Renault Duster is one of the least selling SUV in the segment. But there was a time, when it was the best selling SUV. Failure to update the car with new features, interiors, quality, etc, has resulted in the huge decline in sales. From selling 8,000 units a month in 2012, it is now selling less than 800 units a month. Will the new Duster help increase sales, only time will tell.
