2026 Renault Duster Hybrid AWD auto review: Quick drive

There's a new AWD setup for the Duster that relies on an electronic rather than a physical connection between the axles. Is it any good?

Pros

Innovative transmission
Combines an automatic with all-wheel drive
Generous equipment levels

Cons

Only a 'mild' hybrid
Some interior material quality issues
Average boot space
