Renault Duster Pickup to be Revealed June 18

By now you’ve probably seen too many photos of Dacia Duster-based pickup trucks to be excited at the news that Renault will unveil its first-ever pickup on June 18 at the Buenos Aires Auto Show.

Renault calls its Duster-based commercial vehicle a “Sport Utility Pickup” and says it inherits “all the qualities behind the success of Duster.” 

The new model features a real double cab with four doors, five seats and a generous bed, according to the automaker.

As the two design sketches show, the Duster Pickup will be a slightly toned down version of Renault’s Oroch Concept unveiled last year in Brazil. It will most likely have a Dacia-badged version as well, given that a very similar-looking prototype wearing Dacia logos was spotted in Romania last month.

The Renault Duster Pickup will likely be available with the same engines as the Duster SUV in Argentina, two naturally-aspirated four-cylinder gasoline units with displacements of 1.6 and 2.0 liters.
