Renault Duster 1 Lakh Limited Edition launched

French carmaker Renault has announced that it has sold more than one lakh units of the Duster SUV in India since its launch in July 2012 - a period of less than two years.

To celebrate the milestone, the company has introduced a special edition of the SUV called the 1 Lakh Limited Edition. It has been priced at Rs. 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom, all-India) and will be available in limited numbers from June 2014. More details on the car are awaited.

The Duster is one of Renault's most popular vehicles worldwide, having sold more than 1 million units in 4 years. At present, the SUV is sold in more than 100 countries across the globe.

In India, where Renault was struggling to sell its cars, the Duster has been responsible for changing its fortunes.
