The 2025 Dacia Duster is a hybrid SUV with FWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the Gen 3 generation. The 1.2 TCe Hybrid 140 is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 1.2 TCe Hybrid 140 version develops 140 hp and 230 Nm (170 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 10.1 seconds, which is measured, with performance geared more toward normal driving than acceleration. Top speed is listed at 180 km/h (112 mph). Its power output is about 30% below the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 16% slower than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 5.0 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 50.0 litres (13.2 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 114 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,343 mm (171.0 in) in length, 1,813 mm (71.4 in) in width, and 1,656 mm (65.2 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,657 mm (104.6 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 487 litres (17.2 cu ft), expanding to 1,609 litres (56.8 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,395 kg (3,075 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 900 kg (1,984 lb). That cargo volume is close to the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
The model range
The recorded line-up consists of 1.2 TCe Hybrid 140 and 1.2 TCe Hybrid 4x4 Extreme. Across the range, the specifications span 140 hp and 10.1 s to 10.5 s, while listed starting prices run from $24,990-$26,500. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.
In perspective
Compared with nearby hybrid SUV models from the same period, the 2025 Dacia Duster is strongest on price, while towing capacity and power stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
