Based on the top-of-the-range Prestige trim and priced from £17,495, the Duster Extreme E features exclusive Urban Grey paint and black 17-inch alloy wheels, with a Quartz Grey finish to the grille, wing mirror caps and roof rails. The tailgate script is also finished in black and satin chrome to complete the monochrome look.
