ARO 10 was an off-road vehicle produced by ARO and manufactured in Romania. It shares auto-parts with Dacia 1300, from engine to front axle, and was inspired by the Renault Rodeo and Citroën Méhari.[1]

The ARO 24 Series got a "little brother" in 1980, the ARO 10 Series. While the ARO-24 can be classified as mid-size SUVs, the ARO 10 is about the size of a Jeep Wrangler. It was produced in many body trims, equipped with seven different engines (both gas and Diesel), and came in both 4x2 and 4x4 versions.[2] The ARO 10 was also sold as the Dacia Duster in the United Kingdom and Dacia 10 some international markets.[2] A model derived from the ARO 10, named ARO Spartana, was also produced starting 1997. The last evolution of ARO 10, produced from 1999, was called ARO 10 Super, had a slight design revamp and was built on ARO 24 Series chassis.[3]

First generation

In addition to being sold as the "Dacia Duster" in the United Kingdom and a few other markets, the car received several different names in Italy: Local company Ali Ciemme (ACM) assembled the ARO 10 there in the 1980s and sold it as the "Aro Super Ischia" with the 1.4-liter Renault petrol engine license built by Dacia. When fitted with Volkswagen's 1.6-liter petrol or diesel engines it was sold as the Aro Enduro x4, from 1987 until 1989. A turbodiesel was presented at the end of 1988. Sales volumes of Italian-assembled cars were not very large, reaching 2500 examples in 1987 and 1800 cars in 1988.[4] Volkswagen-engined cars had 28 percent Romanian parts content, with the remainder being Italian and German.[4] The Volkswagen-engined versions also received a stronger differential, to handle the additional torque.[4]

gollark: Well, yes, it's entirely possible for the VPN provider to be being evil.

gollark: No, I mean they can't do it at all. A bruteforce attack on the stuff involved is not actually practical.

gollark: It would also probably still require more computing power than is practical to just do it to *everyone*.
