Dacia is the first manufacturer to offer LPG versions across the range, available direct from the factory. LPG versions of Dacia Duster, Sandero and Logan MCV models will soon be available, badged TCe 100 Bi-Fuel.
All of these cars use new 1.0-litre turbocharged dual-fuel engine, combining petrol and LPG capabilities and delivering superior torque in LPG mode. Customers benefit from choice of both LPG and petrol on the move, a combined range of more than 900km (620 miles), as well as CO2 reductions in LPG mode.
Dacia claims emissions savings of up to 11 per cent for the Duster, and nine per cent for the Sandero, with up to 2.4 tonnes CO2 saving over a four-year period.
LPG sales are on the increase in Europe and already popular in many countries, costing around 50 per cent less on average to refill than petrol. Dacia claims that owners benefit from significant cost savings on their annual fuel bill with the new dual-fuel system.
Practicality of all models is retained with no impact on boot space despite the additional LPG fuel tank. Servicing and maintenance intervals identical to standard petrol models with the same three-year, 100,000km warranty
