The boot space compared to other Dacia models
Within the Dacia family, the Duster’s boot is the cavernous countryside manor house, boasting more room than the Sandero and Sandero Stepway's 328 liters or the urbanite Spring's 290 liters. It’s clear that when it comes to carrying capacity, the Duster isn't just another member of Dacia's boot party; it's the lord of the manor, offering a boot space that is clearly superior to its stablemates. Though let's not forget the Dacia Jogger, a newcomer to the family with a seemingly laughable boot capacity of a mere 160 liters—but wait until you fold those seats, then we’re playing in a different league with a stonking 1807 liters.

How does the boot space of the Dacia Duster compare to it's nearest competitors?
In comparison to its rivals, the second-generation Duster with the 445-liter boot holds its own with a stoic defiance. It offers more liters than the Suzuki Vitara's 375 liters, sneers at the Toyota Corolla Cross's 414 liters, and gives the KIA Soul's 340 liters a pat on the back for trying. The BMW X2, with its 470-liters, comes close to dethroning our Duster but falls short when you flatten the seats—the Duster offers 1478 liters compared to the X2's paltry 1355 liters. However, one cannot ignore the elephant in the room—the Skoda Yeti, offering 405 liters, not quite touching the Duster's volume but a notably tough competitor. When compared to the Borgward BX7 with its astonishing 545 liters, we see that it's not quite the biggest fish in the sea. But remember, the essence of the Duster isn’t just about having the most boots—you have to fill them with purpose. And for the price, the Duster's boots are still some of the most sensibly spacious out there.
