BMW IX2 vs Renault Duster

What's the difference?

The second-generation BMW X2 is leagues better than the car it replaces. It now sits nicely in BMW's line-up and offers genuinely tempting electric variants.

This isn't an affordable car by any means but next to rivals from Mercedes-Benz and Volvo, the well-equipped iX2 xDrive30 feels a complete package.

Similarly, the entry-level xDrive20i petrol is a very compelling choice with a comfortable ride and sporty drive.

We'd skip the contrived M35i unless your heart is set on going quickly in a straight line. With the thinking cap on, it's also hard to make a case for the X2 over the objectively better (and more affordable) X1. Then there's the more spacious, powerful, efficient and cheaper Tesla Model Y.

That's not really the point of this car, though. It'll never sell in as many numbers as the X1. Those who love its fastback styling will be pleasantly surprised by the new X2. It does what it says on the tin, marrying the BMW badge with a sporty drive and daring style.

The Renault Duster looks set to put the French carmaker back on the map here in Australia.

While there will likely be general appeal thanks to its cool looks, it holds special appeal for us off-road enthusiasts as a new, cost-affective option that’s filled to the brim with character and charisma.

While it may not be perfect, it also doesn’t matter. In fact, this makes me like the Duster even more.

The manual AWD feels like the purest and most correct way to experience the Duster as it’s so smile-inducing. However, this isn’t to discredit the automatic FWD version as it’s arguably more liveable day-to-day.

Pick your poison. You’re bound to love it no matter which way you go.

The entire point of the BMW X2 is to grab attention and promote conversation. The X2's new-found success comes mainly from bigger proportions - it's grown 194mm over its predecessor and 54mm longer than X1.

It's 64mm taller and sits on tracks that have been pumped by 21mm. All the changes are built into the latest iteration of BMW/Mini's transverse UKL2 platform.

The result is presence and swagger on the road for the X2. Even the base car grabs attention, while electric iX2 variants get unique closed-off grilles and a different front bumper treatment.

It's the M35i thats most eye-catching, though. A jutting lower spoiler and butch stance highlighted by horizontal kidney grille slats and quad exhaust tips. Our test car was finished with massive (and optional) 21-inch alloy wheels.

As successful as the whole package is, there are fussy elements: the boxy rear end, awkward spoiler and peculiar tail-lights. From some very specific angles there's even a hint of SsangYong Actyon to the proportions.

The iX2 and X2 aren't made to appease everyone, though, so you don't have to love it.

Inside is a different story with elegant simplicity the X2's remit. It's much like an X1 in layout with crisply integrated curved screens running the latest iDrive 'OS9'.

Apple CarPlay was faultless (wireless Android Auto is also included) yet connected navigation makes it easy to rely on BMW's in-house features.

You get 90 days free use of BMW Digital Premium, which includes the ability to download games and apps as well as more advanced connected navigation. After the trial, you'll need to pay monthly ($9.99) or annually ($109) for the services.

The X2's door pulls and handles are particularly nice to interact with, blending visual lightness with reassuring sturdiness.

When you see a Renault Duster parked up or on the road, you’ll instantly be able to tell what it is.

This small SUV is essentially a rebadged Dacia for international markets and the design changes are minimal.

The most noticeable departure is the front grille has ‘Renault’ badging written out instead of a Dacia badge. It’s a departure from any other current Renault model on offer locally and gives the car a tough, unique presence.

There are also Y-shaped LED daytime running lights that look cool and modern.

Depending on the Duster version you opt for, the lower section of the front bumper looks different. All-wheel drive (AWD) versions sit higher to improve the approach angle and ground clearance.

Around the side there’s plenty of plastic cladding to drive home that this is a tough all-terrain machine and not your everyday crossover. I prefer it to the glossy and chrome accents on rival SUVs as it's no-nonsense.

The black body cladding around the wheel arches and along the door sills is recycled and has a fleck throughout it. There’s also a recycled icon near the side mirrors which is a touch too on the nose for my liking.

Towards the rear there are angular haunches that make the Duster look tough, as well as hidden rear door handles on the C-pillar.

At the back there are even more angles that make the Duster stand out. The most obvious is the triangular tail-lights which look funky and cool.

There’s little else to note about the rear design besides a subtle Renault badge and Duster written out on the bottom of the tailgate. I appreciate how clean the rear is because some carmakers can go over the top with badging.

Inside, the Duster defies its budget roots with a high-tech and modern-presenting design. The Y-shaped air vents continue the motif from the headlights, while the 10.1-inch touchscreen multimedia system is mounted prominently on the dash and is smartly tilted towards the driver.

After spending some time behind the wheel, however, you start to notice a lot of the Duster’s finishes inside are hard, scratchy plastics. It’s most noticeable on the dashboard.

Depending on which version you opt for, the door armrests are also finished in hard plastic. The top-spec Techno gets a softer padding on top, however.

While there is a lot of hard plastics, it’s nowhere near as noticeable as a Suzuki Jimny.

Despite the X2 living dangerously in the style department, it hasn't sacrificed cabin practicality – at least in the front seat.

A vertical wireless charging pad holds a phone in like a kid on a rollercoaster (important, as you'll read later, because the X2 range has some serious back-road talent) with nearby USB-C plugs for additional charge.

The door bins easily fit a one-litre camping bottle, there's good storage for small bags beneath the floating armrest (which has a very small cubby for keys or mints) and a sizeable glove box.

As you'd expect from a German-built BMW (all X2s hail from Regensburg) build quality is excellent... save for the flimsy indicator stalks. The latest oblong engage with a limp click that's a far cry from the damped thump of older BMWs, such as the E90 3 Series.

The cabin materials are pleasing to touch with quality stitching and soft padding on heavy touch areas. Geometrically patterned trim inserts add some cabin flare and look sturdy as well. 

The X2 and iX2's back seat is not as good as the BMW X1's – none of the proverbial thanks, Sherlock.

Under the sloping roof headroom will be acceptable for 175cm adults and knee room is passable. Despite sharing underpinnings between electric and combustion variants there's minimal spatial compromise.

There are ISOFIX ports and top tether anchors for all seating positions. Vents are mounted in the centre console and there is a fold-out armrest with cup holders. Doors open relatively wide for a 'coupe' as well. 

Of some concern is the X2's narrow bench; the body-work sculpted appearance of the coupe tail results in lots of shoulder room intrusion. To put it in simple terms, it's best capped at four occupants.

The boot is at least very generous, offering between 525L (iX2) and 560L (X2) of VDA space.

The load bay is long and there is no load lip to lift items over. Seats fold in a 40:20:40 configuration, growing capacity up to 1400L.

Neither the X2 or iX2 is fitted with a spare tyre, so its mobility kits for X2 owners.

In terms of practicality, this is one small SUV that punches above its weight.

Up front both the seats are manually adjustable, which is expected at this price point. There’s nothing wrong with this as they still allow you to find your desired seating position.

The entry-level Evolution comes with cloth upholstery which feels nice to touch and allows for decent breathability, whereas the top-spec Techno has a premium textile that almost feels like neoprene (wetsuit material). I’m thankful there’s no leather upholstery option in this car because it wouldn’t suit its character.

Ahead of the driver is a leather-wrapped steering wheel which feels more premium than you’d expect. It feels lovely in the hand and is complimented by the squared-off shape.

Another reason why I like this steering wheel is it offers a generous amount of tilt and reach adjustment. This means people of all different sizes and statures will be able to find a comfortable driving position.

There’s a nice smattering of physical buttons on the steering wheel for critical things like the cruise control and changing the content on the digital instrument cluster, though if you want to change the volume or track, you need to interact with the stubby stalk behind the steering wheel.

This is a classic Renault quirk that’s been in a number of its cars for years. It takes a bit to get your head around, but once you do it’s second nature.

Behind the steering wheel is a 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster which looks a little small in its housing. Clear analogue dials for the rev counter and speedometer would have been better and likely more timeless.

As standard, however, there’s a big digital speedometer readout that’s easy to read, as well as a few layout styles and informative pages to cycle through.

I wish the digital rev counter was featured on more of the page layouts and it also had more numbers denoting the rev counter markings, rather than simple lines. This is particularly annoying in the manual.

Moving across, the 10.1-inch touchscreen multimedia system is clear and bright. It also helps that the native interface is simple and easy to navigate.

There’s wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto across the line-up which is fantastic to see and almost expected now. Complimenting this is a standard wireless phone charger at the base of the centre tunnel.

Additionally, if you opt for the Techno, you get a phone mount on the dashboard. I still haven’t decided whether this is helpful or not given there’s already wireless phone mirroring and the phone mount doesn’t provide charge as standard.

Unlike many newer cars, the Duster retains plenty of physical switchgear up front so key functions like the dual-zone climate control and drive modes.

In terms of storage up front there are two cupholders, a handy shelf for stowing things above the wireless charger, a big centre console box, as well as a deep glove box.

Moving to the second row there’s plenty of headroom, though legroom is minimal for adults above (183cm) six feet. You have to remember this is a small SUV so it’s actually not too bad.

The second-row bench seat is laid back, allowing you to get comfortable on longer drives. Two adults can easily fit back there, though pushing it to three would make it squishy.

Second-row amenities include air vents and two USB-C ports. There’s also a special connector on the back of the centre console which allows you to fit a wide range of optional 'YouClip' accessories. These include a cupholder, light or hook.

In the same vein, you can also add a phone or tablet holder to the back of the front-seat headrest. The configurability is to your heart’s content.

A downside of the second row, however, is there’s no fold-down centre armrest. This also means there are no rear cupholders as standard, which is disappointing.

At the back the entire Duster line-up has a manual tailgate, which is fine for the price point.

The boot space itself is decent as there’s no load lip, but if you’re wanting a larger space overall, it’s best to opt for the front-wheel drive (FWD) versions as they have 472L with the rear seats upright. AWD versions, on the other hand, have 358L with the rear seats up.

The Techno 4x2 in particular has a two-tier floor which allows you to stow things underneath the main boot floor, or you can create a partition to stop things moving around.

Boot-related amenities include a light, hooks and a 12V socket. There are also extra YouClip points, including one on the tailgate. This allows you to add extra lights or hooks.

As standard, all Duster variants get a full-size spare wheel, which is fantastic given this type of vehicle may be spending a lot of time out on the open road.

In Australia the 2026 Renault Duster is being offered in two trim levels with two powertrain options.

Pricing starts at $31,990, before on-road costs, for the Duster Evolution 4x2 automatic and extends to $37,990, before on-roads, for the Duster Techno 4x4 manual.

This is competitive pricing for the small SUV segment, especially when you consider the rugged and considerably smaller Suzuki Jimny costs similar.

As standard the Duster Evolution comes with 17-inch alloy wheels, a 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster, a 10.1-inch touchscreen multimedia system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a wireless charger, dual-zone climate control, an electric park brake, as well as black and grey cloth upholstery.

Stepping up to the Techno gets you larger 18-inch alloy wheels, front fog lights, privacy glass, modular roof rails, keyless entry and walk-away locking, push-button start, a smartphone holder, as well as black and grey premium textile upholstery.

While the entire Duster line-up has LED low-beam headlights, the high-beams are only halogen, which is a disappointing cost-cutting move.

Despite this, there’s still plenty of standard equipment, even from the base Evolution trim.

If that’s not enough, however, you can further personalise your Duster with a wide range of optional accessories. There are clip-on cupholders, lights, hooks and tablet holders inside, as well as Rhino Rack and Thule accessories outside.

BMW's internal combustion engines are responsive and slick in the X2, while the iX2's well-calibrated electric powertrains deliver pleasingly instant pick-up.

The range kicks off with a heavily revised version of BMW's all-aluminium 'B48' 2.0-litre four-cylinder in xDrive20i tune. It produces 150kW and 300Nm, enough to hit 100km/h in 7.4 seconds from rest.

Like the xDrive20i, the M35i employs a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission driving all four wheels.

Australian M35is are more powerful than European models, developing 233kW and 400Nm for a 0-100km/h sprint in 5.4 seconds. A freer-flowing exhaust is augmented with active sounds for a fruity (if synthetic) note.

BMW offers a pair of electric powertrains with the 150kW front-drive eDrive20 and twin-motor 230kW/494Nm iX2 xDrive30.

We only sampled the more powerful one which features Hans Zimmer-composed sound scapes and an impressive turn of pace, hitting 100km/h in 5.6 seconds (claimed).

It is limited to a 180km/h top speed which may pose an issue on German Autobahns but is no trouble in Australia.

As noted earlier, the Renault Duster is offered with two different powertrains.

The most affordable option is a 1.3-litre four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine which produces 113kW of power and 270Nm of torque.

This is mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission with drive sent to the front wheels only. It’s worth noting this is the same powertrain that propels the Renault Arkana and Captur, as well as certain entry-level Mercedes-Benz models.

Renault claims this version of the Duster can do the 0-100km/h sprint in 9.2 seconds.

The second powertrain option is a 1.2-litre three-cylinder turbo-petrol with 48V mild-hybrid assistance which produces 96kW and 230Nm.

This is less powerful than the four-cylinder petrol but it’s mated to a six-speed manual gearbox with drive sent through an all-wheel drive system.

Renault claims the AWD Duster can do the 0-100km/h sprint in 11 seconds. That’s not very fast at all…

Claimed top speed for the entire Duster line-up in Australia is 200km/h.

Unfortunately there’s no automatic AWD Duster available globally yet so if you want to maximise your all-terrain capability, you’ll need to opt for this mild-hybrid manual powertrain option.

All versions of the Renault Duster have a braked towing capacity of 1500kg, though it’s worth noting the towball download limit is only 75kg. This could prove to be a hassle if you’ve got a towball-mounted bike rack and you put a hefty e-bike on it as this could easily send it over this threshold.

Rated at 7.5L/100km (xDrive20i) and 7.8L/100km (M35i), after a 130km jaunt, the M35i's trip computer showed 9.8L/100km.

Premium 95 RON or higher is required and the fuel tank holds 54 litres.

For the iX2 xDrive30, consumption was above the WLTP rating. We saw 18.2kWh/100km on our hilly country route which would equate to 356km from a charge of the 64.8kWh lithium-ion battery battery.

The 417km WLTP driving range figure is at 15.5kWh/100km, we'd expect to get closer to the rated figures in more typical urban and suburban use cases.

Regenerative braking was quite pronounced (there are four setting: Adaptive, Low, Moderate and High) and on a descent into Hobart the xDrive30 managed to boost charge levels from 27 to 29 per cent.

As for regular charging, the iX2 will take DC electricity at 130kW, meaning 29 minutes from 10 to 80 per cent. That interval allows you to roam around 290km between charging stops on a long run.

One great aspect of both iX2 variants are their fast 22kW AC charging capability. It means the iX2 can go from flat-full in under four hours, rather than eight hours on an 11kW wallbox.

Though most owners won't have access to three-phase electricity, this suits public charging – such as at shopping centres or destinations – very well.

Another boon is BMW's inclusion of both Mode 2 and Mode 3 charging cables and a 12-month ChargeFox subscription.

Home wallbox installation isn't included in the deal (Lexus offers this with its UX300e) though BMW does offer the service at a cost for those who want it.

Renault claims the four-cylinder, FWD Duster consumes 6.5L/100km, whereas the three-cylinder, AWD is claimed to consume 5.7L/100km, both on the combined (urban/extra-urban) cycle (ADR 81/02).

The former has a 50L fuel tank and requires a minimum of 91 RON regular unleaded petrol, while the latter has a slightly larger 55L fuel tank but requires higher quality 95 RON premium unleaded petrol.

We didn’t get a chance to properly get as-tested fuel consumption figures during this initial first drive, but the FWD Duster has a theoretical range of 770km and the AWD Duster extends that to 965km.

The previous-generation X2 always felt a bit more Audi or Volkswagen than BMW in the way it went down a road.

This latest iteration has a secure, dynamic balance more in-keeping with the blue-and-white roundel and is far more impressive than its predecessor.

We spent our first leg in the performance-oriented M35i. The punchy engine, front-biased AWD and slick transmission felt just right in the sporty small SUV.

It sits 15mm lower than the other variants on differently tuned springs and adaptive dampers.

The M35i holds onto the tarmac like a limpet with minimal body roll at very high limits partly thanks to the efficiency-oriented 245/35R21 Continental Eco Contact 6 Q tyres.

Yet this comes at the cost of adjustability. With such tight rebound damping in Sport and Sport Plus modes, the M35i's body is too tied down. Even in Comfort, the M35i hopped and fidgeted over Tasmania's broken tarmac, a trait not aided by the 21-inch alloys.

We would have preferred more build-up in the steering weight, too, given the sporting intentions. That chubby wheel rim does its best to remove any sensation of feedback, too.

BMW's iDrive is mostly fantastic except when it comes to changing drive modes, which you need to do fairly regularly in the M35i.

More than just normal – or Personal here – there's configurable Sport and Efficiency modes. There's also Digital Art and other less useful options.

Thankfully, the xDrive20 is much sweeter. Even optioned up with the 20-inch alloy wheels the ride is a lot more agreeable and well-suited to Tasmania's lumpy roads.

All the damper modes were usable with Sport providing welcome extra support without being too strict. Turning into corners felt more natural in the xDrive20 thanks to a bit more body roll which helps communicate grip levels.

The xDrive20i did feel low on grunt after the M35i and iX2 xDrive30 but that was only in a direct comparison - grunt levels were plenty once accustomed. We did miss the M35i's front limited-slip differential on loose surfaces, but it wasn't a deal breaker.

Seeing that the iX2 xDrive30's kerb weight was 325kg higher than the M35i (2020kg) set alarm bells going initially. That's a lot of extra weight for a 'small SUV' to be carrying around, and is beyond a Tesla Model Y Long Range (1979kg).

The iX2 uses the same kinematics and suspension components as the petrol cars but in completely retuned states. Encouragingly, the result is rather excellent.

You do notices the weight when pushing through patchily surfaced corners. The iX2 bobbles and hops occasionally as you approach the damper's limits, but to their credit they never gave up.

That light steering – which is frustrating in the M35i – aids to disguise the xDrive30's extra mass, too. As all X2's are front-biased AWD models, they never quite reach the dynamic heights of BMW's Cluster Architecture models.

Still, grunt is prodigious and, although it's officially slower than the M35i, the xDrive30's rolling response is predictably excellent. BMW has done a great job calibrating the regenerative braking, too.

I found Moderate was my preference, and because the brake pedal blends caliper and regenerative forces you lose precious little range from not having it jacked all the way up.

The iX2 is quiet inside, too. There's almost no wind intrusion and tyre roar is kept to a bare minimum inside, especially impressive given that the M35i sends quite some road noise into the cabin.

Returning through Hobart's outer suburbs, we notice some shortcomings. The iX2's high bonnet, low-set seating position and letterbox rear glass with protruding rear lip spoiler mean visibility is compromised. The X1 doesn't suffer from such issues.

That's the cost of visual flare and the excellent 360-degree camera and head-up display help to alleviate guesswork and keep eyes on the road.

The M35i didn't feel the most complete on the road. If you're chasing a sporty coupe statement at this kind of price, the BMW 230i coupe is a great driver's car.

Instead, you're better to spend money on either the xDrive20i or iX2 xDrive30 with some choice options and enjoy a slick coupe SUV driving experience.

Depending on which version of the Duster you opt for, they’re rather different beasts. The most ‘normal’ version is the FWD auto.

This powertrain combination with the 1.3-litre turbo four-cylinder and seven-speed dual-clutch automatic immediately feels familiar if you’ve driven a current Arkana or Captur.

There’s enough power underfoot to get moving along briskly, though you won’t be breaking the land speed record anytime soon. There’s also a wealth of torque allowing the engine to feel like it’s not working hard.

It’s fun to listen to the turbo spool up during moderate acceleration, though the four-cylinder engine note doesn’t necessarily inspire you.

For the most part the seven-speed dual-clutch operates smoothly, though it can get caught out during low-speed manoeuvres. It’s also clearly tuned for economy as it likes to shift up to the next gear quickly.

The AWD Duster, on the other hand, is where the fun and true character of this quirky SUV shines. With the three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine and the manual transmission, it’s far from the quickest vehicle out there. It’s faster than a Suzuki Jimny, though.

While progress may be relatively docile, the gruff three-cylinder engine note is addictive. There’s also plenty of torque on tap, so you don’t need to downshift to get things moving.

The manual selector feels chunky in the hand and the clutch biting point is easy to get your head around. Unlike some petrol-powered manual cars, this one’s hard to stall. Even if you do, once you put your foot back on the clutch, the car restarts automatically.

Where the AWD Duster gains extra character points is by having a 48V mild-hybrid system. It doesn’t do anything to drastically alter the driving experience apart from adding a tiny boost to acceleration and extending and smoothing the engine idle stop-start system.

During our launch drive program we had the opportunity to drive the front- and AWD Duster off the beaten path, as well. While you’d expect the latter to be good, the former surprised me in terms of just how far it could go. It’s clear the platform is set up for all-terrain capability, no matter the powertrain configuration.

For added peace of mind off-road, however, the AWD has a higher ground clearance (212mm vs 174mm), as well as a range of terrain modes, including a ‘Lock’ setting that splits torque evenly between the front and rear axles.

The AWD Duster is pretty unstoppable off-road. It’s not quite a Jimny tamer in terms of outright off-road-ability, but I estimate the Duster could do 80 per cent of what a Jimny could do.

While the Duster mightn’t be an outright off-road beast, it well and truly makes it up with on-road finesse. The most noticeable element is the suspension. It feels supple, balanced and controlled no matter the surface. Sure there’s some body roll in the bends, but this isn’t trying to be a sports car.

There are some differences between the front- and AWD Duster when it comes to the rear suspension. The former has a torsion beam set-up, while the latter has a multi-link arrangement. In practice, however, it’s hard to tell any difference between the two.

The steering is direct and on the lighter side which helps with manoeuvrability, though there’s a general lack of feel. It’s considerably better than the Jimny’s vague steering, though.

In terms of parking the Duster has a tight turning circle. Rear parking sensors and a reversing camera are standard in the Evolution, though the Techno adds front and side parking sensors, as well as a surround-view camera.

The camera systems in this car are poor. They’re mushy-looking with poor resolution and horrible colour balance. It’d be great to see higher quality units installed, especially because the multimedia screen is so high-resolution.

Forward visibility from the driver’s seat is fantastic through the rather upright windscreen. You also get a good view of the muscular-looking bonnet.

Side visibility is great, which helps make checking blind spots easier, plus the rear envelope is sizable.

The safety systems in this car are largely easy to live with, though the lane-keep assist can grab at the steering wheel a bit too much on roads with tight lanes or poor lane markings.

Thankfully there’s a button on the dashboard that turns this, and any other safety system that annoys you off, so you can keep on motoring without safety nanny intrusion.

Lastly in terms of noise, vibration and harshness (NVH), the Duster is impressively quiet at low speeds. You can even travel at 60-80km/h along gravel roads and in the cabin it sounds like you’re on a sealed surface.

Once you get out on the open road at highway speeds there’s noticeable road and wind noise, but I’ve experienced much worse in small SUV rivals at a similar price point.

The Renault Duster hasn’t been crash-tested by ANCAP just yet, though the Dacia Duster did receive a three- out of five-star Euro NCAP rating in 2024.

As standard there are six airbags, autonomous emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane-keep assist, driver attention alert, traffic sign recognition, rear parking sensors and a reversing camera.

Stepping up to the Techno gets you blind-spot monitoring, front and side parking sensors as well as a surround-view camera.

Notably absent from the entire line-up is rear cross-traffic alert, as well as adaptive cruise control. There’s only standard cruise control on offer.

There are two ISOFIX points, as well as three top-tether child seat anchorage points on the rear seat bench.

Since 2022, BMW has backed all of its cars with a five-year/unlimited kilometre warranty.

You’ll need to service the iX2 ands X2 based on condition, rather than kilometres traveled. The multimedia system will prompt you when it's time to visit a workshop. 

You can pay upfront for service plans with BMW: a five-year servicing package will cost you $3171 for the petrol X2s, while the iX2 is $2186 for six years.

The Renault Duster is covered by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty with five years of roadside assistance.

Logbook servicing is required every 12 months or 30,000km, which is mainstream for the commercial vehicle segment, but incredibly rare for a regular car. These long intervals are handy for those who travel long distances.

The first five services have capped pricing. All up these cost $2685 for FWD Dusters or $2475 for AWD Dusters. These average out to $537 and $495, respectively, per service.

Alternatively, you can purchase a five-year, pre-paid service plan for $2150 for FWD Dusters or $2100 for AWD Dusters. This is a saving of over $500, depending on the version, compared to pay-as-you-go.
