Dacia Duster market performance in Central Europe

Entities: Dacia Duster · Hyundai Tucson · BYD Seal U · Dacia Bigster · Renault Dacia

Overview

In the Czech Republic, registrations of LPG‑powered cars rose sharply, reaching 6,455 in the first half of 2025. Dacia led the segment with over 2,600 LPG units, helped by the launch of the Duster Eco‑G 120, which offers a 1.2‑litre turbo engine and low fuel consumption. The model’s practicality and value were highlighted as key factors in its popularity.

A few days later, data from Romania showed the Dacia Duster topping July 2026 SUV registrations with 725 units, outpacing other models such as the Dacia Bigster and BYD Seal U. SUVs made up 58.5% of the Romanian market, even as overall vehicle registrations fell year‑on‑year. The Duster’s strong performance in both the Czech LPG niche and the broader Romanian SUV market underscores its continued appeal across Central Europe.

Overall, the snapshots illustrate sustained demand for the Dacia Duster across different fuel formats and market segments in the region, despite broader declines in new car registrations.
