Renault Duster: Renault India has confirmed the relaunch of its most well-known SUV in the country, the Duster. The French carmaker will bring in the third-generation Renault Duster and its 3-row version in India. The 5-seater Duster is expected to be launched in early 2026 and will take on SUVs like the Hyundai Creta, Maruti Grand Vitara, Kia Seltos, Skoda Kushaq, and more. Its 7-seater model might follow a few months later, competing with SUVs like the Tata Safari, Mahindra XUV700, and Hyundai Alcazar. Turbo-Petrol Engine And Hybrid Setup The French automaker has recently unveiled the Renault Boreal SUV, equipped with a 1.3L turbo-petrol engine and a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, delivering 138bhp/156bhp of power with 240Nm of torque. It also supports flex fuel, producing 163bhp and 270Nm of torque. Renault claims the Boreal can accelerate from 0 to 100kmph in 9.26 seconds. It offers four drive modes: Eco, Comfort, Sport, and MySense. The same powertrain setup is anticipated in the India-spec new Renault Duster and its 7-seater version.

The 5-seater Duster might feature a 1.6L petrol engine with two electric motors and a 1.2kWh battery pack, producing a combined output of 140hp. Its 7-seater version might come with a 108bhp petrol engine paired with a 1.4kWh battery pack powering a 51hp motor.

These may include dual 10-inch screens (one each for infotainment and instrumentation), powered front seats with massaging (for the driver only), a premium Harman Kardon sound system, dual-zone AC, panoramic sunroof, 360-degree camera system, and Level 2 ADAS.

Top 5 Upcoming SUVs In India: Tata Sierra To Mahindra Bolero
The Indian market has seen a surge in the SUV segment over the past few years. Also, the key brands in the country's market are working to strengthen their presence with the launch of new and updated SUVs. Here are five SUVs that are expected to arrive in the Indian market sooner than expected. New-Gen Renault Duster Renault is gearing up to introduce a bunch of new cars in the global market. The brand recently unveiled the Renault Boreal for the worldwide market and is also planning to launch the New-Gen Duster in India. The updated Duster will be based on the brand's CMF-B+ platform and is likely to get a hybrid powertrain as an option. While the brand has been tight-lipped about the launch, it is expected to hit the Indian shores by the festival season. New-Gen Renault Duster Nissan SUV and MPV Nissan recently teased two upcoming mid-size SUVs and an MPV for the Indian market. Reports suggest that the Japanese carmaker is set to launch the MPV first, followed by the SUV. The Nissan MPV will share its platform with the Renault Triber, while the SUV is likely to be the Nissan Terrano successor. Nissan is likely to roll out its new portfolio by the year-end or early 2026. Nissan SUV and MPV Tata Sierra The Tata Sierra is revving for its comeback by the year-end with a new look and exterior elements like a high-mounted bonnet, vertically-split headlamps, gloss black grille with silver skid plates, wide air dams with ADAS sensor installed in the inner layer, and flush door handles. While the details of the interior are unknown, the brand is expected to equip the new Sierra with a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a 2.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, panoramic sunroof, wireless phone charger, and more. Tata Sierra New-Gen Mahindra Bolero Snapped testing on multiple occasions, Mahindra is likely to take the wraps off the new-gen Bolero. The mules of the SUV have been snapped a few times by now, and the launch could take place on August 15 with a refreshed look and elements like flush-type door handles, independent rear suspension, and more. New-Gen Kia Seltos Kia is planning its next move to diversify its Indian portfolio. The brand recently launched the Carens Clavis ICE and EV in the market and is now preparing to launch the new-gen Kia Seltos by early 2026. Reports suggest that the new Seltos will get a hybrid powertrain, challenging the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara and Toyota Hyryder.

New Renault Boreal, a potentially affordable family-sized SUV, is on the radar for South Africa
The Renault Boreal is likely to arrive in late 2026 or early 2027. Renault has revealed a brand new SUV product called the Boreal, and it will be sold in emerging markets outside of Europe. South Africa is also on the radar for the new product, with the French brand's local representative confirming to IOL that the newcomer is under consideration for late 2026 or early 2027. Based on the Dacia Bigster, Renault Boreal is larger than the Duster, but its overall length of 4,560mm makes it marginally smaller than established C-segment SUVs such as the Toyota Rav4. Aimed at emerging markets and set to be built in Brazil and Turkey, the Boreal is likely to be more affordable than similarly-sized rivals. However, it is still too early to speculate on its pricing in markets like South Africa.

Renault Boreal SUV launch set to boost global presence
Renault says it is set to strengthen its global presence with the launch of the Renault Boreal SUV, a new addition to its line-up aimed at markets outside Europe. The Boreal is designed to drive growth and solidify the brand's presence in the C segment across more than 70 nations. Last year, Renault's sales reached 1.577 million vehicles, with around 40% (560,000 vehicles) sold outside Europe. The Boreal is said to be a key element of the 'International Game Plan 2024-2027', which includes a €3bn ($3.5bn) investment to introduce eight new vehicles outside Europe, five of which are in the high-value C and D segments. The company aims to double the unit revenue per vehicle sold outside Europe by 2027 compared to 2019. Renault Brand CEO Fabrice Cambolive said: 'Today, I'm proud to announce a new chapter in this adventure: Renault Boreal, a true emblem of our ambition to raise quality and innovation on a global scale, bringing more value to our customers outside Europe and reinforcing our move upmarket." Renault noted that Boreal targets areas where the brand is 'under-represented' in the C segment, catering to the growing demand for family SUVs in Latin America and complementing the brand's offerings in the Middle East, Turkey, and the Mediterranean Basin, where SUVs account for more than half of the vehicles sold. The industrial strategy for the Renault Boreal involves production on two continents. The Curitiba site in Brazil will cater to 17 Latin American nations, while the Bursa site in Turkey will serve 54 markets, including Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Mediterranean nations. This approach aims to enhance logistics agility and optimise production expenses. With 4.56m long and 1.84m wide, Boreal features up to 24 driver assistance systems, including emergency stop assist, lane keep assist, and blind spot warning, among others. The rollout of the Renault Boreal will commence in late 2025 in Brazil, with subsequent launches in the rest of Latin America, Turkey, and other markets starting in 2026. Last month, the company launched two new-generation full hybrid E-Tech powertrains, enhancing the performance of the Symbioz and Espace models.
