New Renault Duster vs Creta/Seltos/Vitara - Worth the Wait in 2025?

I'm in the market for a mid-size SUV and keep hearing about the new Duster coming in 2025. The original was fantastic on rough roads, and I'm tempted to wait. But with Creta, Seltos, and Grand Vitara offering so many features now, I'm unsure. I do lots of highway trips and need good ground clearance. Budget around ₹15-18 lakh. What would you suggest?

I frequently travel between Mumbai's corporate hubs and construction sites in Maharashtra's rural areas. Need an SUV that looks professional for client meetings but won't struggle on rough patches and village roads. Budget isn't the main concern, but reliability and ground clearance are crucial. Currently comparing these options - what's your take on the best all-rounder?

Thinking about getting a special paint finish and wondering which of these pulls it off best. Matte finishes have become quite popular lately, especially on SUVs. Between the Thar's rugged look, Creta's premium vibe, Nexon's bold design, and Seltos' sophistication, which one do you think really stands out with these unique paint jobs? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
