• The Dacia Duster surpasses rivals to win the mid-sized SUV category in the 2024 Auto Express Used Car Awards

• 'We love the Duster at Auto Express and it's as good a used choice as it is a new car,' said Editor, Paul Barker

• It's the second year running that Duster has won the best mid-sized SUV at the Auto Express Used Car Awards

For the second year in a row, the Dacia Duster has beaten its competitors in the Auto Express Used Car Awards to win the mid-sized SUV category.

The experts at Auto Express ranked the Duster at the top of its category after shortlisting the best used cars across 19 categories, judging them on criteria such as value for money and a rewarding driving experience, combined with customer satisfaction scores from its annual Driver Power survey.

'We love the Duster at Auto Express and it's as good a used choice as it is a new car,' said Auto Express Editor, Paul Barker. 'Dacia is going from strength to strength, and while the all-new Duster is a great car, its predecessor continues to look like excellent value for buyers looking for a mid-sized SUV,' added Paul.

Luke Broad, Dacia Brand Director for the UK said: 'The Duster is much-loved by its owners and there's now more than 110,000 of them in the UK. They love the Duster for reasons that also make it shine as a used car – its robust design and affordability – combined with its practical, chunky SUV styling. To keep winning used car awards says so much about the Duster's continued popularity with car buyers and the top motoring journalists.'
