Dacia expands hybrid lineup while Honda rolls out new colors for 2027 models in Italy

Dacia is pushing its hybrid range in Italy, with the Jogger, Duster and the upcoming Bigster attracting strong buyer interest. Preference rates for hybrid versions are reported at 37% for the Jogger, 40% for the Duster and 68% for the Bigster. The company highlights that hybrid operation can cut urban fuel consumption by 20‑30%, translating into savings of roughly €250‑€350 per 12,000 km driven.

Honda has announced fresh paint schemes for its 2027 model year in Europe, covering the X‑ADV scooter, the Forza 750 maxi‑scooter and the NC750X urban‑crossover. Mechanical specifications remain unchanged, with the 745 cc bicylinder engine and optional DCT gearboxes retained. The new colours use the brand’s Durabio™ material, part of Honda’s plan to source 100 % sustainable plastics by 2050.
