Three years later, they won the event with a Renault 20 turbo 4x4. One goal: winning! The first Paris-Dakar rallies attracted all sorts of vehicles, 4x4s, buggies and side-cars lined up alongside a Rolls-Royce and even a 1927 Renault KZ! In the rally’s second year, the brothers Claude and Bernard Marreau surprised everybody by taking second place with their modest Renault 4, just behind the Range Rover driven by Genestier-Terblaut-Lemordant. The brothers were no beginners, since they had already set a record on the Cape Town- Algiers raid in  1971.   In 1982, they were back in the Paris-Dakar with a Renault 20 prototype equipped with a turbocharged engine and four-wheel drive. Making full use of their exceptional skills as both drivers and navigators, they held off attacks from the Ladas driven by Briavoine-Deliaire and the Mercedes of Jaussaud-Brière and Ickx-Brasseur to cross the finishing line ahead of the other 380 competitors. The Marreau brothers added their names to the list of winners of one of the world’s best known races.

Its front end exudes a sense of ruggedness, and the wide wheel arches, imposing chromed grille and sump guard all point to Dacia Duster 4x4 credentials. Seen from the side, its high ground clearance, clearly-defined wheel arches and body protection are an open invitation to take on even the toughest roads and tracks.   Today's all-terrain vehicles are often synonymous with bulk, a preconception which Dacia Duster sweeps aside. Standing at a length of just 4.31 metres and a width of 1.82 metres, Dacia Duster is very compact, making it as at home in built-up areas as it is when taken off the beaten track. Although it clearly demonstrates that it belongs to the world of all-terrain motoring, Dacia Duster boasts attractive, yet unostentatious lines.   …with genuine go-anywhere ability  Dacia Duster was designed to tackle all types of roads and tracks, all over the world. In order to meet these varied needs, Dacia Duster is available in all markets in both 4x2 form (for customers looking for high ground clearance, high driving position but who have no real need for a four-wheel drive daily driver) and with 4x4 transmission for off-road driving.   Dacia Duster's strengthened underside is suitable for dirt roads and all-terrain use thanks to its high ground clearance (more than 200mm) and big clearance angles (approach angle: 30 degrees; departure angle: more than 35 degrees). Easy to use Dacia Duster is easy to drive and not only aimed at all-terrain aficionados. The combination of its low unladen weight (1.180kg in 4X2 - 1,280kg in 4X4) and compact proportions ensure particularly agile handling. In the 4X4 version, thanks to the unique and intuitive control (sourced from Nissan) located in the cabin at the foot of the central column, Dacia Duster drivers can easily adapt the vehicle's transmission configuration to meet their needs of the moment.   This control allows one of three modes to be selected:   When the Auto mode is selected, the front/rear torque split is calculated automatically as a function of available grip. This system is aimed at providing optimal traction, however much grip is available, and gives Dacia Duster genuine 4x4 ability. In normal conditions, the torque is transmitted through the front wheels only. If traction is lost, or when grip is at a premium, some of the torque is transferred to the rear axle. In extreme conditions, the torque is split equally front and rear. This split is performed by an electromagnetic torque converter supplied by Nissan.   In Lock mode, the driver electronically locks it into 4x4 mode, whereby 50 per cent of torque is consistently fed through the rear axle. This mode is recommended in low grip conditions (snow, mud, dirt, sand) at low speeds.   In 4x2 mode, the transmission is locked into two-wheel drive. This mode is suited to driving on good roads and reduces fuel consumption.
