2026 Renault Duster TCe 100: Real-World Mileage Expectations
For those unaware, the Duster’s Turbo TCe 100 is the same engine that also powers the Renault Kiger and Nissan Magnite. During the Kiger’s road test, it delivered the fuel efficiency of around 10-11 km/l in city conditions and around 13 km/l on highways. And since the Duster is being more boxier and slightly heavier than the Kiger, we do not expect better fuel efficiency from it compared to the Kiger. However, better mileage could be achieved if the vehicle is driven at a steady speed.
