The re-modelling has been a bit of a disaster. Visibility has been greatly reduced giving the sensation of sitting in a tank. The “improved” touch screen is very frustrating and at times is a real danger to safe driving. The controls for the functions displayed along the bottom of the screen being so far divorced from the screen itself means that too much time and attention can be spent adjusting functions, thus creating dangerous situations. The hazard warning lights are all too easy to switch on while trying to adjust heater controls.

The layout of the cockpit has been rendered almost useless by daft areas that serve no purpose which means that there is now barely any space to put items, phones, drinks etc. and the central cubby with the lid just gets in the way. God forbid dropping a phone between there and the seat as it’s almost impossible to retrieve without mangling your hand. The boot space, which was one of the great selling points of the Duster, has been severely reduced. My wife doesn’t feel safe driving this car. It is our third Duster and as she says, the first two were great to drive. Everything was in the right place to access without taking your eyes off the road whereas she feels with this model you need a passenger so you can ask them to adjust heating or the rear window demister. In all honesty she hates it and would never recommend it to anyone as it’s so poorly designed and would gladly have our old diesel duster back.

Disappointed with the gear change on the hybrid particularly on inclines.

The engine always sounds like it is labouring.

It sounds like it needs to change up a gear sooner
