The second restyling of the Dacia Duster keeps the formula that made this SUV 5-doors popular: honest proportions, practical ground clearance and running costs that stay low, now matched with a broader choice of fuels and drivetrains.
Each Dacia Duster engine targets a different owner. The 1.0 TCe ECO-G runs on LPG with a manual gearbox and front-wheel drive, cutting fuel bills on long commutes. The 1.3 TCe EDC pairs gasoline with a robotic transmission for city ease, while the 1.5 Blue dCi MT 4WD adds diesel torque and all-wheel drive.

Dacia Duster trim levels sit on top of the mechanical version rather than changing it. The 1.3 TCe EDC, for instance, is offered as Extreme or Journey: the same gasoline powertrain and robotic gearbox, but different comfort, styling and convenience equipment. Check the specification tables, since availability varies by market and production year.
