The RXS variant of the Renault Duster has been given some feature updates by the French carmaker. Renault has added dual airbags for added safety and also has given a touchscreen infotainment system similar to the one on the top of the line RXZ variant.

The infotainment system is a 7-inch MediaNAV unit that comes with Bluetooth telephony and audio streaming. The system also supports USB, AUX and navigation. The RXS variant is powered by the 1.5-litre dCi turbo-charged four cylinder diesel motor that comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. This engine is capable of producing 85 HP and 200 Nm of torque.

Renault is also expected to give the Duster a 1.6-litre petrol automatic engine next month. Currently, an AMT is offered only on the 110 HP 1.5-litre dCi diesel powertrain. With the introduction of the 1.6-litre petrol automatic, Renault will be expanding the SUV’s range.
