India, June 23 -- The new Duster joins Renault India's export line-up as the company works towards expanding overseas shipments and global market reach.

Renault has officially started exporting the new-generation Duster from India, with the first shipment of 750 units leaving Chennai for South Africa. The move marks another step in the French carmaker's efforts to strengthen India's role as a manufacturing and export hub, while also expanding the global reach of one of its most recognised SUV nameplates.

The exports of the Duster have begun with South Africa, but Renault says other international markets will be added in the coming months as production gathers pace.
