Renault Romania will launch a Duster pick-up truck and special editions of existing models in 2019, Hakim Boutehra, general manager of Renault Commercial Roumanie, the sales division, was quoted locally as saying.

A pick-up version was made previously by Romturingia (mainly for the use of OMV Petrom) but this time the Duster pick-up will be a commercial version sold through the dealer network.

“It will be a work-oriented car, it will not be like Oroch (Renault Duster Oroch, a double cab pick-up truck produced by Renault for the South American market since September 2015),” romania-insider.com quoted Boutehra telling local website 0-100.ro.

The Duster pick-up is highly likely to become the most affordable small truck in the market supported by Dacia’s well developed network for sales and service.

The model will be more utility-oriented than hobby-oriented which means that the finishes will be more simple than luxurious.

It likely will go on sale in the second quarter of 2019.
