Renault Duster Oroch

2015

The Renault Duster Oroch (simply Renault Oroch since 2022) is a 4-door pickup truck produced by the French manufacturer Renault primarily for the South American market since September 2015. It has four doors, space for five passengers, a 680 kg (1,499 lb) payload capacity and a 683 litres (150 imp gal; 180 US gal) rear volume.

It is based on the Dacia Duster SUV, with a wheelbase extended by 155 mm (6.1 in) and a total length extended to 4.7 metres (15 ft). This is the first Renault-badged pick-up and it creates a new size class for pickup trucks in terms of size, space and doors.

Overview

The Renault Duster Oroch was originally developed by Renault Technlogie Roumanie in Romania. The Duster Oroch concept car was presented at the 2014 São Paulo Motor Show. The production version was officially released at the 2015 Buenos Aires Motor Show and has been on sale in South America since September 2015.

The bed size is 1,175 mm (46.3 in) wide and 1,350 mm (53.1 in) long, and has a capacity of 683 litres (24.1 cu ft).

It is powered by either a 1.6-litre or a 2.0-litre petrol 16-valve four-cylinder engine, mated to a 5-speed or 6-speed gearbox respectively. A version with an automatic gearbox was released in 2016.

In April 2022, the Oroch received an update (revised exterior and interior design, new security equipments, new infotainment system), accompanied by dropping the "Duster" part of the model name. It is now powered by either the 1.6 litre with 118 PS (87 kW) or a new 1.3-litre turbo engine producing 170 PS (125 kW).
