<\/figure>\n\n\n\nRenault Duster Hybrid: Price and Variants<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Renault Duster Strong Hybrid is available in three variants: Evolution, Techno and Emotion. The introductory prices start at Rs 16.99 lakh and go up to Rs 19.49 lakh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Evolution variant is priced at Rs 16.99 lakh, while the Techno costs Rs 18.99 lakh. The top-spec Emotion variant is available at Rs 19.49 lakh. These prices are ex-showroom and subject to the applicable introductory offer conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The new model joins the existing turbo-petrol versions of the 2026 Duster, giving buyers an alternative focused on fuel economy without requiring an external charging connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.8-Litre Petrol Engine Paired with Two Electric Motors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Duster Strong Hybrid E-Tech 160 uses a naturally aspirated 1.8-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine paired with two electric motors and a 1.4 kWh battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The combined power output is rated at approximately 160 PS, with the hybrid system automatically switching between electric power, petrol power and a combination of both depending on driving conditions. The SUV uses a dedicated hybrid transmission to manage power delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Renault claims the vehicle can operate in electric mode for up to 80% of the time during city driving. The battery recharges through regenerative braking and the petrol engine, eliminating the need to plug the vehicle into an external charger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Claims 29 km\/l Fuel Efficiency and 1,400 km Range<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the biggest highlights of the new Duster is its claimed ARAI-certified fuel efficiency of 29 km\/l. Renault also claims a combined driving range of up to 1,400 km on a full tank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These figures could make the hybrid attractive to buyers who frequently drive in cities or undertake long-distance journeys. However, actual mileage and driving range will depend on traffic, road conditions, driving style and other factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Features and Equipment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The entry-level Evolution variant includes a 10.1-inch infotainment screen, a seven-inch digital driver display, dual-zone automatic climate control and 18-inch wheels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Techno variant adds features such as a panoramic sunroof, keyless entry and connected-car technology. The top-end Emotion offers ventilated front seats, electrically adjustable front seats, a powered tailgate and a larger 10.25-inch digital driver display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Renault has also announced an eight-year or 160,000 km warranty for the hybrid battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
